This is an old one, but yes. Especially mistaking they're and their. Drives me nuts.

I voted Chevy, but I have two dream cars - 1972 Cutlass (had one a few years ago w/ a 455, frame couldn't handle it and broke at control arm), 1970 split bumper Camaro. I'd also kind of like a 1958 Plymouth Fury if only for that movie.

1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate?
Hot chocolate w/ marshmallows
2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree?
No Santa, no kids, but I love to wrap presents. I even had a coworker bring gifts in for me to wrap at a student job I had while in tech school.
3. Colored lights on tree/house or white?
colored, no blink
4. Do you hang mistletoe?
No.
5. When do you put your decorations up?
I haven't in a couple years, but usually the day after thanksgiving (while watching 24 hours of Eastwood). Taken down the day after xmas.
6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)?
Dressing. My stepmother makes me a version with vegetable broth instead of "turkey juice."
7. Favorite Holiday memory as a child?
Going to my granddad's and getting up before everyone, but being afraid of his chair that had claw feet. Shut up.
8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?
I heard them wrapping everything, not sure how old I was.
9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve?
Always did. My Dad is a big kid and would insist. Now, my husband and I exchange gifts xmas eve because we do so much travelling those two days and don't have time.
10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree?
Pre-lit 7 footer with lots of ornaments. Nearly no branches empty. I have ornaments from my father's childhood, up to a Grinch from 2002. Lots of cats and Santas/Father Christmases.
11. Snow! Love it or Dread it?
Love it!! (Another favorite memory is making snowmen with my Dad.)
12. Can you ice skate?
Never tried, but I doubt it.
13. Do you remember your favorite gift?
I'll let you know after I get my nano. My brother always gets me good gifts, mainly because we tell each other exactly what we want. I wish my mother-in-law would do that. She may just get cash, because I despise buying a gift just to buy a gift without knowing if she wants it.
14. What's the most important thing about the Holidays for you?
Visiting with family and friends.
15. What is your favorite Holiday Dessert?
My stepmother has been making this thick gooey chocolate cake concoction, but the name of it escapes me. It's decadent.
16. What is your favorite holiday tradition?
Don't have one.
17. What tops your tree?
A star that looks sort of like stained glass.
18. Which do you prefer giving or Receiving?
Both.
19. What is your favorite Christmas Song ?
Anything by Nat King Cole, but also the Cheech and Chong thing they play on the radio. And the Grinch. Stink stank stunk.
20. Candy Canes?
Sure, why not?

I call it Nutscrape. Hate it. Use it at work only because we have to (got to test all pages in IE and NS). I'm using Firefox at home about 90% of the time.

So then my mom rolled the car down a hill on the interstate and we were thrown out. I had a chunk of glass in my leg, and the car was on top of her.

The absence of one leads to more homeless animals, the other does not.

Put catnip on the scratching posts to encourage them. Some of them will slide around or fall over, so you may have to hold them down. Use Feliway and No Scratch sprays.

Oh man, I used the squirt bottle on the new guy once and he jumped a foot in the air and looked around like, "Wha?" It was funny, but I think he got the point.

Lots of vets will work with you if you cannot pay it all right away, especially if you already have a relationship with them or are on file. If they were adults, I'd say go to that place on Bankhead (White's)? They sell de-wormers. I'd be afraid to do that myself for such small kittens, though.

I think it costs around $80, if I remember correctly.
I had my older three cats declawed in a panic when we bought this house 8 years ago. I'm not declawing the new one. Luckily he's being a very good boy. Provide attractive alternatives to your furniture, and they won't scratch.

Oh OK I understand now...That truely tree huggin liberal thingy going on
For a minute I was in the gutter So only tree huggers dislike the current administration? And Lesley is Crazy Lady for not agreeing with someone else's beliefs? O.....K. Such a lovely, tolerant thread this is. Must be the spirit of the season.

B is a good friend. That may not sound like much but trust me, it is.

I don't know. My cats mostly prefer boxes. Hmmm....

But uh, Kato's kind of a douchebag.

Don't forget this site.

That's in the tiny bathroom where I isolated him at first. He does sleep on the end of the couch near the front door.
I got another call yesterday about a black with white cat. There must be a plethora of those.

Does this look like a Rufus to you?
-
<--Queens of the Stone Age. One of my obsessions - especially him.

Got a call on Sunday from another lady saying she'd 'been seeing your cat' around her house. I was out of town, so didn't call her until Monday afternoon (not to mention I've been out of work for two days as well - IBS). I left her 4 messages before she called me back. The last one said, "I guess I'll just keep calling until you call me back." Heh. I'd dragged myself out of the house to get another borrowed trap, even, but she said the one she saw had white on it, she believes. I asked her to call back if she did see a solid black cat anywhere, and thanked her for calling. Phoo.
Still can't think of a name for the interloper, though Rufus is becoming my favorite. He's not as affectionate as he was when he was isolated to the bathroom, or on the front porch. He still follows me around, though, and is relaxing a bit about food. Well, sort of.

I wish I could find some "all out tacky" places here in the county
There isn't much out there from what I can find....
Come see my neighbor's house. In fact, I may send a pic to that site.
