The topic: On a forum this morning
----------------------------------------------

some guy who uses the same journal script that I use, posted about Comments vs Forums for his readers. I posted about what I did this past weekend, adding the forums for anyone who is interested in further discussion about any of the journal topics. Fly bys can just comment, then leave, no reason to register or take it further.

Then he says that the problem with the fly bys is that he doesn’t get their email addressed to send them site updates and information. What?

My little head voice started screaming “SPAMMER! SPAMMER!” I posted back that personally the only kind of email I like is the email that gives me a delivery schedule for something I’ve ordered. “News” or “site info” emails are unwanted and filtered directly to trash. I don’t want them and I won’t read them. Then a moderator followed up with pretty much the same sentiment I had. I can just imagine all of the webmasters who read his post thinking the same thing.

It came down to email harvesting, was my gut feeling.

The topic: Lisa is a little lost right now
----------------------------------------------

Marco has been in her chair for over an hour now. She wants it back. After a half hour of circling her chair, she just climbed up to the officecam bed.

The topic: It works!
----------------------------------------------

Tired of cleaning cat pee off of the counter multiple times a day and also cleaning the stuff off of the stove, I stationed a couple of those SSScat things in the kitchen.

It is annoying when they squeal and spit when you walk by or have work to do (I just turn them to the wall), but it’s nice not having copious puddles of piss in the burners and in the counter corner, where it’s really hard for me to reach (being short is such a joy at times).

So, the humans at the cathouse give the SSScat canisters two thumbs up. The cats, on the other hand, would just as soon piss on them. But they aren't gonna try! :agree:

The topic: Ya gotta love a guy
----------------------------------------------

who announces to the entire world that he likes cats. And just like my favorite boy blogger, he describes himself in the third person.

That third person thing is kind of fun. Go ahead, let the voices in your head have their own turn!
