Well you guys must be the golden shower/golden girl experts.
I did receive this shirt for my 50th birthday.

OK, it's not a sports thread, but here's something to prime the pump for September:

That first clip gave me goosebumps. Always will. :)

Loved listening to announcers count the missed tackles in any given run DM made...and yards gained after first contact. DM is a beast!
 
I'd love to see a video of that with sound...........

Never fails - when I pull out the phone, they quit!
Cricket got her name because that was pretty much the only noise she made when she was a kitten. She would stalk her brothers and click/chatter at them.

Here's some video from our kitten this past winter.

I haven't been around cats a great deal, but I have never heard a cat make noises like that. I wonder if the cat is trying to mimic the sound of the bird to confuse it, or make it think it isn't being stalked by a predator.

Thanks for sharing!!!!
 
I know, that's one small reason I do whole blood. The main is I want to get in and get out and I'm a quick bleeder.

Also, where is my "useful" tag? My post feels lonely without it.


Just popping in to say I donated blood this morning. I'm too short for double red, and that makes the blood center people sad because my red count is so high.

Not all cats make the sound, either. Of our six, Cricket, Tab & Milo do. Milo also does a high-pitched "mew" sound. Button is dead silent. Mel is too old to care, and Molly rarely looks out the window. She spends most of her time with her toy mousies.

I should add, Button is the only one who has hunted recently. We brought her & her son Tab in from outdoors last summer. While she & her four kittens were still in the garage, she hunted for them. We learned two things from that: Button was capable of bringing down a full grown rabbit that outweighed her, and leftover ground squirrel tails are the preferred kitten toy.

I wish I had a clip of our last cat, Jinx. I never heard any cat - before or since - that purred louder than he did. I swear the china in the hutch rattled on occasion. :D
