My episode of Trivial Pursuit America Plays will be on Fox 11 at 3:30 on Monday the 3rd.  If you're outside Los Angeles you can go here http://www.tpamericaplays.com/listings.php to see when the show airs in your area.  Unfortunately, mine is the second show of the day, so if you only get one show a day you won't see mine.

Persey's gone through four collars and is about to get a harness.  Just now I noticed a big scratch on her ear that seems to go all the way through.  Now I'm wondering if she's been losing her collars in cat fights.  Maybe it's an advantage to be wearing something that the other cat can grab onto instead of your actual skin.  I know Annie used to ( Read more... )
