More Kitten Cuteness

The kittens, Tony The Tabby Tiger (Tony, for short) and Gray Bear (Bear, for short) are romping and running.

Kittens! Cute Kittens Alert!

This is the cat currently named Care Bear. Friday, she was living in the kitten room at Treehouse. Today, she owns our house, though she prefers to hang in the family room.

Her co-adoptee, currently named Grendel, is too shy to be photographed. He’s either under the bed or in a back corner of the bedroom closet. Occasionally a nose pops into view. Update: See below. Grendel has appeared.]

Grace and Frankie

Jane Fonda. Lily Tomlin, Sam Waterston, Martin Sheen. How can it go wrong?

I’ve started watching season two and it’s growing on me.

Nothing to tell now…

This popped up on my random play list and it stopped me in my tracks. I love this song and this version, from 2013, is beautiful. It’s about birth, death, and Neal Cassady… like most Grateful Dead songs. (Lyrics & the backstory.)

Amaroking away the afternoon

Here’s what I’m listening to over the next hour.

Selection_001 Using the Amarok player, I’ve set up a dynamic list that finds songs with (Rating > 3 stars and ( (PlayCount = 0) OR (LastPlayDate MORE THAN 90 days) ).This gives me a nice, fresh mix of the 11,800+ tracks in my library. I had been an Amarok user since my early Linux days, but then they messed up the playlist functions and I switched to RhythmBox. Recently, RhytmBox became totally unreliable on my Fedora 23 system, so I switched back to Amarok. It’s a happy experience.

What are you listening to now?

Dear Valued Customer

Groupon knows about me and cares what I think, I think.

My Day at Zabar’s

Facebook reminded me that I took this picture 5 years ago. Where does the time go, even when one is going the long way around?

Yum… If I recall correctly, I got a pastrami on rye.

Every step you take, I’ll be watching you

Have you noticed that you’re being tracked across the web?

If you look at shoes on Zappos, then you see ads for shoes on Facebook as well as other sites. Sometimes this is useful, sometimes it’s just creepy. And if “they” are tracking that, what else about your online behavior is being tracked? Every breath you take, every step you make… they’ll be watching you.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has just released a plugin for Firefox and Chrome that blocks tracking “supercookies” without breaking websites. If you want to opt out of tracking, try adding Privacy Badger to your browser.

When you listen to that song and actually listen to the lyrics, it’s really creepy. (But look at how young Sting is!)

You have to read a LOT of Dr. Seuss

I was discussing the famous “You don’t have a square to spare?” Seinfeld episode, which led me to recall an episode of Moonlighting. The mere prat of a youth with whom I was speaking had never heard of the show or seen Bruce Willis with hair. Thus, I present this for his (and your) edification and enjoyment.
