Romantic kitty.

Pause it! Pause it!
Why?
Because I need to find a kitty!
What? Why?
Because Dorothy just found the Tin Man and he has a kitty in the tree.
  -long pause wondering which part of Oz she is from-
What in the world are you talking about?
Where he’s singing and the kitty in the tree says “Wherefore art thou Meow-meow”

We found a kitty.

What can be stickier?

You know those little warnings they put on games and toys?
Ages 10-99
For Ages 2-4
I usually don’t trust those much as plenty of 8 year olds excel at those 10-99 varieties.

I experienced the age range on papier mâché this weekend and it is definitely somewhere above three.

Corollary lesson:
Hair and flour paste makes great brick mortar.

Wiki and MickeyD

Wiki is an Anglicization of an Hawaiian term meaning “quick,” “fast,” or “to hasten”.
In the information age it has come to represent a data repository that can be edited by any number of users simultaneously (or nearly so) and fact checked and cross linked ad nauseam, in perpetuity, et cetera, ad hoc, untilthe cowscomehome.

bear with me here there is a payoff

Well Wikipedia is a project that has been undertaken by a pretty large community of writers to document everything they can.
Part of the etymology for the term wiki has become “the acronym for ‘what I know is'”.
Recently I became a member and about the time I hit submit I realized that I don’t really have much in the way of encyclopedic knowledge. I know a lot of movie quotes and I know Abby makes me mushy but try writing that up in a “neutral point of view”. Not bloody likely.

focus…focus

It was about this time, while questioning my self worth…about two seconds later…that I found the learning curve for creating pages on Wikipedia was a more expensive order than my drive-thru mentality was prepared to place. So, now I have finally made it back to the late-night window and placed a small order and you can see my first wiki right here.

bingo!

I linked it from the SQUID page which already mentioned his name and I added his middle name and then put in his birthday and place etc.

I would like a picture to add but I don’t really want to use the one found here and here. Is there a better picture I could use or is this one sufficient? I also will need some advice on details for re-writing the article in encyclopedia-speak rather than obituary-speak as we find on those previous pages. Or someone with the details can write it themselves…cause it’s a wiki!
