Yeah, DR MBarnum, I thought the ladybugs would get a reprieve because they're Ohio's official state insect, but Gail said, "Well, this IS a hospital and it looks pretty bad to have any kind of bugs!"

The new Blu-ray of Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol looks exceptional.  You heard it here first.  :)

I am very sad. Yesterday I bought another milkweed plant because the four monarch caterpillars ate the one they were on. Today they dropped off dead. I am afraid that the nursery or grower sprayed a pesticide on the plants.

I'm so very sorry!!!

Thank you all. I know it must seem silly to some people. But then, I don't have a tv, so I amuse myself with bugs.

Sorry about the caterpillars, DR Laura.  I've been meaning to mention that my cardiac rehab gym has an infestation of ladybugs and I've enjoyed watching them in the windows while walking on the treadmill.  My nurse Gail told me yesterday that they were going to exterminate them last night and I'll be sad not to see them tomorrow.

Oh Ginny,, they aren't really lady bugs, they are a beetle that stinks really bad when you squish it.  The government imported them from Japan or somewhere to eat aphids in soybean fields.  The problem is they took over the world.  They get into houses and overwinter inside the walls.  I'm allergic to them. It's awful

I don't think it is silly, at all.  I think it is tragic.  I hope you call the company headquarters and file a complaint.  Or contact the Consumer Advocate at your local TV station.

DR Laura, so sorry about the caterpillars.  There's something special about a monarch caterpill er, is there anywhere there milkweed grows wild?

Lady Antebellum just sang the Star Spangled Banner at the World Series.  They are really talented.  I have got to buy their CD.......... when I have some money.

NY Times is reporting that Roger Rees will take over Nathan Lane's ADDAMS FAMILY role as Gomez (in March).   Bebe Neuwirth will stay on as Morticia.

I have slowly been letting Ricky out of the room. Tonight I let him come downstairs,  He ran to the landing, turned the corner took the stairs about 4 at a time and proceeded to slide down the last few and plop! on the floor.  He was SOOO excited.  He sniffed and played.  I don't think he's ever been on hardwood floors, he had no idea how to stop or control himself. It was pretty funny....well not to Boo, she was irate.  I let her do the howling and hissing and Ricky really didn't back down.  I didn't really interfere, until it was just getting a little too nasty, then I put him back in his room.   He was out for about 30 minutes.  It was a good start and I think it will get better

I'm taking a little bit of a chance with the ringworm, but adult cats don't usually get it and he's been treated for 3 weeks.  He's still contagious, but not as contagious as before.  The vet said it's a chance, but she didn't say don't do it, she said it was up to me.

It is not silly at all.  How they died is very upsetting.

LOL, he's a kick.  I need to charge my camera so I can get him playing with one of his toys, he acts like it's caught on his tooth and he's trying to get it off, he'll struggle, then finally open his mouth and out it drops.
