For those interested parties, snarf is a combination of tears, mucous, and saliva. It can be used as a noun, verb, or even adjective. For example:

Pierre snarfed me and now I am covered with icky snarf. I hate being snarfy.

Wow, it's really hard posting with a cat sitting on your chest.

Pierre was so happy to see me get home that he snarfed me.

I haven't been snarfed in a long time. Well, at least since the 4th of July week when I cat-sat for a neighbor.

Mister Mo! No, TCB and TD and stickclaw, "Mo" did not stand for what you think. It's short for "Moritz"....he was with a European family before my neighbor adopted him.

He weighs a ton...and he's a huge cat, besides. And when I would sit down, he would LEAP up on my chest and examine my chin.

But maybe that's not "snarfing"

Then I haven't been snarfed since Miss Vickie used to jump up on me and then begin grooming herself and me.

A couple of years....

Are you trying to take the pics in "night mode" or with just Auto Flash settings? If there are a lot of lights, you may not need to use night mode - slower exposure - to take the pics. However...

If you have a self-timer on your camera, and a tree stump, car hood, mailbox, etc., nearby....

....or maybe he could use his tripod?!!!

TPunk · « **Reply #275 on:** January 04, 2008, 06:46:39 PM »

Snarfing involves a cat rubbing his snarfy face all over yours. Some cats have a relatively low snarf content. Killbot, for instance. Pierre has an abnormally high snarf content- to go along with his abnormally big feet and ears, and abnormally long tail. He is the biggest 7 month old kitten ever. Ever I tell you!!!

Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a bit. But he's pretty darn big.

Snarf is a catch-all word for me.

I wonder if RLP saw my response to his soundtrack post yesterday.

He did, indeed, but he wasn't sure he ought to rejoice and shout "hallelujah" given the "sssshhh" attached to it.

That said, HOO and RAY!

(And DR Jrand...no, it's not "The Bad Seed")

You are quite welcome! Maybe by next year, I'll have figured out how to do panorama and we'll have quite the show from this little display.

I remember Dyan Cannon going on talk shows like Johnny Carson and Mike Douglas bad-mouthing Preminger as a sadistic fiend. I think she was ready to quit the business after making SUCH GOOD FRIENDS.

La Cannon's reputation as a diva bitch rather makes her opinions of Preminger suspect. He probably wasn't easy to work with...and I'm certain he wasn't going to kiss any Cannon ass as was her expectactions of most people around her.

Dyan Cannon is the sister of Portland bassist Dave Friesen, who first made international news with his collaboration with John Stowell, "the enigmatic jazz guitarist who live(d) in our basement" for about 20 years. John's brother Matt, whom I've known for longer than I've known John (probably close to 30 years now--oy!), once met Dyan and told me "She has the scariest old-looking hands I've ever seen." So now you know.

Dyan Cannon is also the cousin of one of my best friends in high school, June Friesen.

Can anyone figure out what Dyan's real last name might be?

It has been okay where I am. This afternoon, the rainfall was rather heavy. Here is what it looked like outside my balcony door a few hours ago:

Earlier, during one of the lighter rains, I took this photo with the door open and using my flash. The white specks are raindrops:

I've finally gotten around to loading my PaintShop software on my new hard drive. NOW I can resize my photos.

Here's a shot I took from my mom's backyard the last evening I was in Johnston:

I know I wrote a lot about Christmas Eve and having dinner at my Cousin Debra's house and making the spaghetti sauce for the dinner.

This shot captures it all...sorta...without being too specific/explicit re: spaghetti sauce:

My Aunt Doris is taking wrap off a bowl of salad. Debra has just turned away from tasting my sauce, which is in that pot on the stove. And my 17-year-old cousin Becky is there because she's always around her Momma and DoDo (her name for my Aunt Doris) when food is being set out!
