Favorite Things

Instead of “whiskers on kittens” I would favor “paws without claws”.  Seriously, cat paws are one of my favorite things (even the term “paws” is fun for me to think about).  The paws and coming up with a name is almost enough to make me want to get a cat.  On the whole, however, cats make me uneasy, and I could never acquire one as a companion.  (Probably a good thing since I’m struggling to keep our two house plants alive and we have a fish-only pet policy.)  This does not stop me from dreaming up names such as Sassafrass, Purrrabola, and Mauers.  Perhaps the time has come to get a fictional cat – on a trial basis of course.

Hidden Amusements

It would not be surprizing to discover an octopus at mini-golf, but my imaginative coworker found this sad guy at a regular resort.  I don't know much about golfing, but I predict being trapped on the links would cause consternation for anyone.

No, it was not the sand that got him but the grading contours - perhaps the work of a mischievous engineer!

P.S.  Should I finish creating a fun coloring book from seemingly mundane engineering designs - or is this taking my amusement too far???
