"Our existing cat Cole is trying to adopt me, but we have not learned each others language completely yet" Who does Cole belong to now? You had said each of your cat had owners. Cole may very well adopt you. M. is our cat.. He was a stray many years ago, and I believe his former owner was male because, in the beginning, he bonded with a man easier than he bonded with me but now he is our cat. He sleeps between us. He's lived with us for over six years and my only worry is that he isn't afraid of people so he won't get out of your way if you have a big box. I could walk into him, and he wouldn't move until that time. He isn't allowed to go outside, but he would go out if I let him. He didn't get out last summer, but he got out the summer b4. Fortunately, he can find his way home and he is outside he is afraid of other people when he is outside. Do you go back to work tomorrow? Cheers,

Always, I have admired Teddy R. . . It is important to remember that no man or woman is perfect and that goes for president's as well. I haven't read the new Morris book about Teddy, but I believe that when I read a review, the review pointed out that like Wislon, Teddy was a racist. B4 SI members sanctify Teddy, I'd read the book or look at a few reviews. Although we have newspapers scattered all over the house, I must have tossed the review of Teddy R.. I imagine I can find a reference on line, maybe at Amazon, to several reviews. Then, I can walk over to the library and look them up. Now, that I've straightened out my Roosevelts, I believe it was Teddy who told American blacks that they had more to fear from black rapists than from lynchings by white people which were common at the time. Cheers,
