David got a delicious, yummy Perdue chicken from the Giant. It is REALLY good. It is moist and seasoned really well. Well, the cats think the same thing. As soon as David brought it in the house the cats started “velociraptoring” around the living room. Which means that they were moving around meowing and trying to get the chicken, hopping up on the chair that I was sitting in and being pushed off and hopping up on the coffee table and then the chair and then being pushed on the floor. They REALLY wanted some chicken, but it is too good to share – they can have the leftovers. If there are any. They do this when we have very fragrent meats. Stevie is the worst. Because he’s brain damaged, he’s got to be corrected over and over and over. And David isn’t real good at correcting him. I could be more consistant too. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh… kitties. If they were dogs what fun would they be?

Open Threads from Season 2
I had a bunch of open threads from Season 2. Some have been answered, some are still pending and may not be answered. So here are my open threads… answered or not.
- Sheriff Jack Carter is remembering Henry Deacon using the memory mess-er-upper device thingy. This hasn’t been addressed as of Episode 5 Season 3.
- Nathan Stark asks Allison Blake to remarry him because he can’t live without her and Kevin. Well we all know now that Allison does decides to marry Nathan but he just goes floating out into time leaving Allison free to have a relationship with Jack. But will it happen?
- Carter and Callie Curie are dating. Where is that going? This is going nowhere as we all now know. Callie has not been written in and Allison is now free to start dating Jack. If she will.
- Where did Beverly Barlowe go after she was transported out of the bunker? We may never know this answer. This is still an open thread.
- Where did the Artifact go after Kevin was transported? This may never be answered. Stark was the one who was interested in the artifact. This is still an open thread.
- What’s going to happen to Henry? Is he coming back to Eureka? Thanks to Eva “The Fixer” Thorne, Henry is back and completely pardoned. But for Eva’s own evil purposes. Ah… what will come of this?
- What will happen to Jack if Henry doesn’t come back? How will he figure anything out? Irrelavant. Not important, not happening.
Here’s the new Eureka psychiatrist thought. Dr. Abbey Carter is a shrink, but if they bring her back Jack can’t have a relationship with Allison. However we’ve discovered in Episode 4, Season 3 that Jack’s sister Lexi is ALSO a shrink. And she’s going to have a baby and needs a loving family to be around… so MAYBE, not knowing the future, she’s going to become the new Beverly. Just a new thought.
Bringing back Nathan
After watching Show Me the Mummy (Season 3, Episode 5) it’s obvious how the are going to bring back Nathan Stark. They left it wide open if Ed Quinn ever wants to come back.
Nathan gave Allison a logic diamond as a wedding present. He “imprinted a small part of himself” into the diamond. So they will do something like…
…use the diamond to attrack Nathan’s essence from time and reassemble him. Or…
…use the essence of Nathan that is in the diamond to recreate his DNA and create a Nathan clone.
…or something like that. So as always with SciFi unless you have a dead crispy body to show … the person can always come back. And even if you do have a crispy body (Carson Beckett) you can still come back.
When is dead not dead? When you are on a SciFi show.

Sheriff Jack Carter: Ahhhh… Just be careful. It’s all fun and games until someone gets cursed.
Cat Furniture
I love my kitties… most of the time. Right now I would like to finish sewing the little sequins on my top – the manufacturer didn’t sew them on well and they need to be re-sewn. Larson has made that impossible by laying in my arms. My lap isn’t good enough. I tried to move her to my lap. She got all hissy walked away and then came back and hopped up into my arms… again. I’m cat furniture. I love my Larson. And I usually would encourage her to do this … but I want to sew (would like to finish sewing) my sequins !! I’m a kitty bed. I’m a lounge chair. I’m a chaise lounge. I’m a hammock. Oi! Fortunately it’s easy to “type” on the PDA while I’m busy sitting still being furniture. Larson is sleeping now. I guess the my job as furniture is successful.
Why Did the Chicken…
Why Did the Chicken Cross the Road?
BARACK OBAMA: The chicken crossed the road because it was time for a change! The chicken wanted change!
JOHN MC CAIN: My friends, that chicken crossed the road because he recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other side of the road.
SARAH PALIN: The chicken had to cross the road because he was not able to find a bridge. Alaskans do not build bridges to nowhere. If he wanted a bridge, he’d have to build it himself.
HILLARY CLINTON: When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little chicken to cross the road. This experience makes me uniquely qualified to ensure right from Day One! – that every chicken in this country gets the chance it deserves to cross the road. But then, this really isn’t about me.
GEORGE W. BUSH: We don’t really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road, or not. The chicken is either against us, or for us. There is no middle ground here.
DICK CHENEY: Where’s my gun?
COLIN POWELL: Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road.
BILL CLINTON: I did not cross the road with that chicken. What is your definition of crossing?
AL GORE: I invented the chicken.
JOHN KERRY: Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road, I am now against it! It was the wrong road to cross, and I was misled about the chicken’s intentions. I am not for it now, and will remain against it.
AL SHARPTON: Why are all the chickens white? We need some black chickens.
DR. PHIL: The problem we have here is that this chicken won’t realize that he must first deal with the problem on this side of the road before it goes after the problem on the other side of the road. What we need to do is help him realize how stupid he’s acting by not taking on his current problems before adding new problems.
OPRAH: Well, I understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why he wants to cross this road so bad. So instead of having the chicken learn from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I’m going to give this chicken a car so that he can just drive across the road and not live his life like the rest of the chickens.
ANDERSON COOPER, CNN: We have reason to believe there is a chicken, but we have not yet been allowed to have access to the other side of the road.
NANCY GRACE, CNN: That chicken crossed the road because he’s guilty! You can see it in his eyes and the way he walks.
PAT BUCHANAN: To steal the job of a decent, hardworking American.
MARTHA STEWART: No one called me to warn me which way that chicken was going. I had a standing order at the Farmer’s Market to sell my eggs when the price dropped to a certain level. No little bird gave me any insider information.
DR SEUSS: Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad? Yes, the chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed I’ve not been told.
ERNEST HEMINGWAY: To die in the rain, alone.
GRANDPA: In my day we didn’t ask why the chicken crossed the road. Somebody told us the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough.
BARBARA WALTERS: Isn’t that interesting? In a few moments, we will be listening to the chicken tell, for the first time, the heart warming story of how it experienced a serious case of molting, and went on to accomplish its lifelong dream of crossing the road.
ARISTOTLE: It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.
JOHN LENNON: Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together, in peace.
BILL GATES: I have just released eChicken2008, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook. Internet Explorer is an integral part of eChicken2008. This new platform is much more stable and will never cra…#@&&^(C%……….reboot.
ALBERT EINSTEIN: Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the chicken?
COLONEL SANDERS: Did I miss one?

Great Quotes
“Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress.. But I repeat myself.’
-Mark Twain
Cat Smiles
My cats smile. Yes… they do. No… I’m not touched. If you look at a content cat… it will be smiling. But you have to look at the side of of their face and the mouth will be curled up at the ends. And it’s not always like that. Look at the side of the kitties face whan the aren’t happy. The mouth will be a straight line.
But don’t look for a frown. Kitties don’t frown. They just give you “the stare” to let you know they are not happy.

Ba’kal: Where are you going?
Teal’c: [calmly] I am leaving. You are about to explode
