OK, just a quick spammy little topic to mention that I'm proud of my wife for making the front page of section II of our local paper, having been extensively interviewed for this article:
Special-needs cats need homes, too And, just so I wasn't outdone myself, I had to get in on it too, with the pro bono ad I did to advertise the adoptions. Sometimes...

Hey, that's great! It's a good cause and an interesting subject. You never really think of animals having permanent disabilities.
Anyway, it's good to see your name in print, or your wife's name, or whatever.  -------------------- "I always have a quotation for everything - it saves original thinking." ~Dorothy L.

Quote (Dark Paladin @ 13th February 2004 20:38) You sure this is the first time the Alvies name has appeared in the newspapers? Well, since I never said that, it's hard to say. No, of course it's not. I myself have been in there several times over the years for soccer and academics, and I'm sure I've had family members in the police blotter section. -------------------- "To create something great, you need the means to make a lot of really bad crap." - Kevin Kelly Why aren't you shopping AmaCoN? |

I vaguely remember something, but I'm not sure exactly what it was. Hey, do ya'll have room for one more cat? -------------------- "I had to write four novels before they let me write comic books." -Brad Meltzer |

 Your wife is awesome, R51. Anyone who does that is okay in my book.  Love your ad, too.  -------------------- "I sat alone and I didn't care, I sat two years in the same old chair, I saw three roads but didn't know, Which way to go-go-go" My Coco, stellastarr* |
