Re: So many ways...

The thing with cats is that they have to be approached on their own terms and take time to trust you. I don't know if you can communicate that with the boundless energy and eagerness of a dog.
However, I think if you raise them from a puppy and kitten, they can become best friends.

Re: Halloween.Com Members Birthday!

Thank you Andy! It often feels weird acknowledging and getting used to a new age. 39. Wow. Where did the time go?
But next year is the big 4.0...I'm going to need to do something big for that one.

Re: Gardening

There's nothing like the anticipation of a growing pumpkin, or any kind of fruit that grows in the garden!
But watching pumpkins grow can get so exciting because it's fun watching them go from little green squashes to the big orange fruits we use for carving. :)

History Discussion

I noticed we talk a lot about The American Civil War here on the channel, especially since a lot of ghost stories revolve around the civil war and that era. I've also been studying for the English praxis. My study delves into different eras of literary time periods such as the colonial, revolutionar...

Re: Thrift and Yard Sale Shopping

:lol: That's a good one, Headless! Oh I speculate about a lot of stuff. I'm quite a philosophical thinker. I think about what could possibly happen, what if's, and all kinds of scenarios. My beliefs are pieced together over the years based off different perspectives and ways of looking at things, an...

Awww he looks like a very sweet dog. And this is coming from a cat person. :lol:

Kudos on your sister in law's son for rescuing him. I'm a big advocate for rescue animals of all kinds. :)

Re: Fast Food Salads

I've heard of Temple Grandin. She wrote the book "Thinking In Pictures." I forgot about her accomplishments in the cattle industry. Wasn't she a veterinarian? The lady I used to work under at the high school wanted me to read her book, but I never got around to it. I think she was trying t...

Re: Thrift and Yard Sale Shopping

One of the things I laugh at most about Ancient Aliens is the way they discredit all human ingenuity. Anytime anybody ever had a creative ot innovative thought, they say it's because the aliens taught them. When my daughter was in high school, she took an advanced biology course in which she excell...

Re: Thrift and Yard Sale Shopping

Yeah it seems that way doesn't it? Why would God, or any kind of creator just make us? What purpose would that serve? Why have such an expansive universe if we're it? I have mixed feelings about the Ancient Aliens series. On one hand the idea of ancient astronauts sounds fascinating, but on the othe...

Re: Fast Food Salads

Sounds like an interesting book to check out, I'm sure he gives some good perspectives on farming. I've heard about that with tomatoes, I didn't know how true it was. But considering how bland they are compared to garden tomatoes, there might be something to that. Growing conditions and type of toma...

Re: So many ways...

Those memorial pet pumpkins sound like a great idea! I take it you use a pet's picture and convert it onto a template, and then project it onto the pumpkin's surface? I don't have a projector myself, but it would be interesting to learn the process. Well, not that kind of projector anyway. I have th...

Re: Haunted Schools

Bankhead seemed to have an interesting life, but she definitely had a wild side that's for sure! I realize I'm putting it mildly. I guess she was in an Alfred Hitchcock film that was based off a book by John Steinbeck. And it's funny, I recognize both those names because Hitchcock was famous for his...

Re: Thrift and Yard Sale Shopping

Seems like there's a lot of modern day things that we get used to and realize we needed before we ever had them. For years I swore I wouldn't get an iphone. I tried a simple touch screen once, at the time I wasn't entirely impressed with it. Then pokemon go came out. We got iphones. And now I could ...
