    HI Pandaa, thanks for the info. I will try to look up the American Asooc. when I get time on the computer. That sounds strange, having the ears curl backwards but cats are cute whaterer, even when they puke at 5 a.m. as one of ours did this morning. Have a good day, Evelyn S

    HI tORASPANDA, read your review on The Cleft, I might get that from the Library./ Have you read another book in a similar vein coupled with a story about men only ccalled Wlak to the End of The World, the female part is called Motherlines. Sorry the author's name escapes me at the moment. There is a series of four books, I think at least two of them is the female side of the coin. Evelyn S.

    I hope you will take the time to view my YouTube book trailer at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-t0K34iU6g. I am doing some research about potential characters to play the lead role in the upcoming movie. Hope you can help me out. As Ralph Eggleston Director/Production Designer of Pixar Animation Studios said,
    "I LOVED the book! It's a missing, ENDLESSLY fascinating link to the history of Hollywood. Thank you for researching and writing it!! I hope it's been widely well received, as it deserves to be." Best wishes. Gaelyn

    Hi! Just dropped by to see how you are and I hear you have kittens! Yeah!
    My puppy, the one in my profile picture, is now 8 months old and 80 pounds! He was 8 weeks old in that picture...
    Reading has been a luxury for me these past two months. I can't wait for things to settle down a bit. Right now I'm reading "Back When We Were Grownups" by Anne Tyler and "When Pigs Fly" Trainind Success With Impossible Dogs by Jane Killion. I am taking private lessons with my Akita and it's homework!
    Take care!
