Do the kitties sleep with you at night? Ferris takes an evening nap next to me quite often, but Ginger considers my bedroom to be hers. She sleeps in different places in my room, and quite often I will wake up to find her asleep right next to my shoulder.

This morning for the first time I woke to find Penny coming out from under my bed, and she slept under there all afternoon yesterday, so maybe I'll get some Penny-on-mattress-top visits at some point in the future.


Which one of your kitties personalities is closest to yours? Ginger's is, definitely, by far. She chose me when she was 8 weeks old, and it didn't take me long to find out just why she had picked me. It's all about the tortitude.


What's the farthest you have ever been on your bike? I think this past month's trip to VT was the most miles I've travelled in one 2.5 day trip, 500 miles altogether, round trip.

From Salem, I've been to the Western MA, NY border, I've been as far north in VT as just south of Burlington, and south to the mansions of Newport, RI, and the vineyards of CT in the splendour of fall foliage.

I've ridden my Harley up to the summit of Mount Washington in NH, and ridden up over the Kangamangus Highway and the famous hairpin turn.

I haven't ridden nearly far enough.
I'd like to do a much, much longer trip. Someday, I will.

How did you name Ferris? That's the name his foster family gave him, and I liked it and thought it fit him, so I kept it.

What brought you to join TCS? I found TCS after being on 4-5 other cat forums that I did NOT like the people on.

what section do you like posting the most on? The Cat Lounge, I guess.

what section don't you post on often? Pregnant Cats and Kittens - I don't know if I've ever posted there.

If you had all of us over for dinner.. all the TCS'ers would you be overwhelmed? I do NOT cook, and I certainly don't give dinner parties, so that answers that!

what's your favorite kind of nut? Cashew

do you like gnomes? Love them.

what is your favorite part about each season? I only like spring and summer.

what's your favorite meal? Steak and potatoes with salad.

favorite dessert? Not much into desserts.

favorite snack foods? Cheddar flavored chips.

what's your favorite soft drink? I don't drink soda, but Sprite if I was forced to.

hard drink? Tequila, Patron silver.

what's your favorite resturaunt? (not fast food) Wherever I can get a decent filet mignon.

your favorite fast food resturaunt? I try to avoid them.

your favorite store? I don't have a favorite store. I do most of my shopping online, and I price shop.

what's your favorite animal besides cats? Lions, tigers, leopards, panthers, cheetahs...

what would you do with your money if you won the lottery
(lets say a million dollars) I would pay off my debts, buy property in AZ, buy an RV and a new HD cruiser, then I'd set up some trusts and become a philanthropist.

what's your favorite thing to do with your kitties? Spend time with them.

what is your most memorable childhood memory? Nothing I want to share publicly.

what's your favorite candy bar? Snickers.

what's your favorite kind of pie? Old fashioned chocolate cream pie, with the DARK chocolate, none of that gray pudding stuff.

what about cake? Mmmmm, cake.


what is your favorite comfort food? It depends on my mood. Right now, it is spinach & artichoke dip.

Do you prefer showers or baths? In an old fashioned, clawfoot tub, I'd prefer a bath, but since the tub I have is a standard size and I can't fill it enough to submerge myself up to the neck, showers it is.

Is it pop or soda (or other)? My nana always called it tonic.

What is the one thing you can never resist? A request for a tummy rub.


Sleep like a log, or wake at every noise? It depends on the noise. I am a light sleeper, but am programmed to sleep through certain noises, like the Kitty 500 at 4 a.m.

Do the kitties wake you in the morning? They wait for me to wake up. They are SUCH good little kitties.

The topic of today going to be Movies!

2.- Do you collect DVD´s or VHS??,….How many do you have? No, I don't collect movies. I have maybe 5 DVDs.

5.- Have you ever to participated in some Special Event of your favourite artist? No, I have no time for Hollywood.


6.- Have you ever to saw in live to some artist? ( I mean is some restaurant, buying at mall or in some resort?) I met the late Ted Knight, of Mary Tyler Moore fame, at a local music theater. I was a child, and he was very tall. I got his autograph.

8.- Have you ever to participated in a role in a Theather representation? ( maybe just for fun or when you was on School?) … I have acted and danced and sung in many, many plays, starting in school and through my early 20s, when I was president of a local 250 member community theater group. I miss the stage, and the lights, and the applause...and the endorphins that brings!


9.- If you could to meet to some artist wich one would be and say us why!...

I would like to meet John Travolta, because I have had a crush on him for ... 30 years as of this year.


10.- Would you like to live next at some artist (? ( I mean for example your neighboor would be a TV anchor or else?)…… I've met quite a few TV reporters, and they are just people with interesting jobs.

I would like to make enough money to be able to live next door to one of them!

Does hitting 110 miles per hour in third gear while test-riding a V-Rod count?

2.- Do you have indor plants at home? Yes, lots and lots!

3.- If you can travel in time and to meet to some historycal person WHO would be and Tell us why?... I honestly am very happy living in the present. I have never wanted to go back in time for any reason, so I have no idea who I would want to meet.

4.- If you have the money power to move to some part of the world ( of course with your kittys) wich place would be and why..... I would move to AZ because I can ride my Harley all year round there, and there are no earthquakes, hurricanes, cyclones, tornados or blizzards there.

5.- What is the thing that really anoy you on the persons.......( for example: the hypocresy, the envy etc) Ignorance and stupidity.

6.- Are you Religious? Not at all. I do not believe in organized religion.

7.- Favourite Salad? Mmmmm, salad...


8.- favourite pop soda? I do not drink soda, I only drink water, but I would pick Sprite if I had to choose one.

9.- Choose one would you prefer to watch Sunrise or Sunset and tell us why...... Sunset, because I am not an early riser. I do not like mornings at all.

10.- Do you have a car? wich type is it?.... I think I answered this already, but I have a red 1998 GMC Sonoma pickup truck. It is a 5-speed standard shift.

Nothing. I would not change a thing.

Mistakes are how we learn, and everything that I have lived through, said or done has made me who I am today.

And I happen to love me very much - I wouldn't change anything, not even the bad stuff.
