CAT OF THE MONTH: March 2006


CAT OF THE MONTH
March 2006
"Phineas"
Here is a photo of my cat Mr. Phineas. When I see him I just call to him,"Hey Boy" in a deep voice, like Billy Crystal's father did in "CitySlickers". I guess it is not your usual cat photo, he was sitting on the computer chair and I just made the background dark to block the junk, I liked the way it came out. Phineas's best friend is Sophie, our Golden Retriever; they hang out together all the time. Phineas has a funny habit: everytime he comes in from outside he has to eat. Even if he just finished eating and goes out for one minute, he has to eat again.

  5. Hey, I was just kidding around! I didn't change my avatar....just used an inactive account I had been saving for no particular reason.

    But thanks for re-instating the Flatcat. Not at all necessary though. Bill's cat is really quit handsome, and the goofy-looking Flatcat is a bit of a distraciton.

    Really, though, Flatcat is hououred. But you can take him down. Besides, the name reminds me of poor Tiger, and the untimely end that he met. :(

    But he was a good cat, and I'm sure he knew what he was doing :)

  6. Thank you; I am honored being the first “Cat of the Month”. I would like to thank the Catademy for their votes. My manager thought it was a risk doing a film Noir but it seemed to work out. Most of my films are action films like, Chipmunk Hell and Attack of the Killer Mice. I would like to thank my father for nominating me and bhakti for posting me.

    FLATLANDER: I agree--Bill's photo of Phineas is out-of-this-world cool, so I've taken down FLATCAT. (BTW--I thought your Flatcat avatar was cool!!)

    PHINEAS: Wow! Thanks for visiting the blog. I figured by now, since you're famous and all, that you would have sent a PR person to accept the award. The NOIR look suits you. Your golden statue (or Morris the cat) is in the mail. ;)

  10. MILADY: I, too, love Bill's blog. It is so classy. Very clear in its intention, and beautifully executed. I think Bill's photographs are incredible in their composition, and beautifully juxtaposed with his captions.
