Friday! The week has flown by and I am looking forward to the weekend. We have a fairly relaxed weekend with Dad’s birthday tomorrow, we’ll be having lunch at Leichhardt. Other than that we’re pretty free and have no real plans.
Have a good Friday lunch planned today with old work friends and that will take up most of the afternoon. Tiger beer and Chinese Lamb Pancakes… yum! And the rest of the weekend will be spent relaxing.
Does anyone watch LOST? Feel free to post your theories, but that was a good episode last night. Met the leader of “The Others” and also some bizarre almost subliminal advertisement for the Hasbro Corporation. The ad contained a 1800 number… I wonder if it is real? This show would have to have the most intricate plot that I have ever watched before. Every scene is a piece of the jigsaw puzzle and you really have to watch every episode.
And finally, our cat. Tonya the Cat is 19 years old and has been having some health issues – namely she eats 7 meals a day and is awake crying all night but sleeps the bulk of the day away. Turns out she has probably got an overactive thyroid, which is a common thing in elderly cats, and can be controlled by a tablet – but we have to await the result of a $170 blood test. Ouch. The tablets will cost us about $30 a month, but that will be cheaper than all the cat food we’re going through. I don’t know if cats years are the same as dog years, but if so, she is over 130 years old! She was Niki’s pet when she was a teenager… longest living animal I have ever had and apart from the thyroid problem (if its that) and a the fact that she walks around with a slight limp probably from bad hips, she is fine.

Hey Clay,
My cat is also 19 years old and got sick recently... when I took her to vet I asked about the dog years question. I always thought that a dog year was like 7 of our years, but he told me there is no direct equivilent, as the lifespan depends on breed of dog, etc. He also said that a 19 year old cat is the equivillant of a human who is 85-90 years old. He said that the oldest cat he ever treated lived to be 24, but that most lasted no longer than 20 years (sorry for bad news, it was sad for me too).
As far as lost goes, I read something a while back on thetailsection.com about the creators introducing an interactive element to the show. There is already fake websites for the show (ex. Oceanic Airlines) out there, and they were going to amplify that with more clues to be found outside the show, specifically they said to look for the 800 # and that a book would be published with additional clues. It appears it was the one that sawyer was reading, by Gary Troup. It came out on Amazon this week. Gary Troup is also an anagram for purgatory I should mention.
I wont be calling the # as I'm in Thailand now, but I am curious. : )
Cheers,

Hasbro or a company it owns is probably bringing out a game based on it......Hasbro owns and controls most of the known world you know, do you really think the US government made the decision to go into IRAQ, heh, no way man, the toy companies control us all!!!!!!
