Curt is broadcasting as follows: A sweet black kitty has adopted us - gorgeous bruiser with a sweet disposition - but our Maine Coon & he are at loggerheads.

Really enjoying Charles Stross's "Merchant Princes" series. That boy ain't right.

@mikerass Just remember: Clove cigarette x hairspray = Robert Smith/Richard Pryor.
