Fun on the Web Sept 3 '09 Cat Years

Ever wondered about the age of your cat? Is it like dog years?
The longest documented cat life is 35 yrs (sorry readers I stand
corrected as 25 years) according to Guiness Book of World Records
but there are other claims of 34, 36 and 37 years out there. This
chart shows the age in human years relative to cat years.

Fun on the Web Sept 2 '09 Quitting Facebook

One of the number 1 most emailed articles this week from the NY Times
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/30/magazine/30FOB-medium-t.html

It points me to the fact that I spend way too much time there and even
more time playing Mafia Wars and other games. Perhaps I need to quit
before I need a 12 step program. If you feel that way too, see:
