The rf signals or radiofrequency or Hz of the purring cat - scientists try to replicate it in a purr box in a pillow - reminds me of the Emperor and the Nightingale, and how the expensive, ornate, man-made

Thanks Mike! Cats are great at healing, and you still have eleven of 'em, right? Kelly's had none! Our sister #5 has a daughter with a weirdly broken foot bone that will take 3 months to heal, vs the usual

Mad at doctors - don't even let me go there! I tried to steer clear of it. (Tried.) My mom getting on the music band wagon is a sign of desperation - try ANYTHING - but too late to be consuming mountains

Thanks Yahia, and I'm sorry for your wife's aunt fighting the same dang battle!! I'm not thinking about much of anything else these days....

You certainly do have a flair for this! Keep at it--and keep track of these characters. George is a keeper. :)

Awww, I'll never leave you either, and I'll keep Social Media Sharing your posts - hmmm, maybe it's the occasional Twitter share that brought the wrong eyes to your posts? Blurt - gotta check it out, and

So much fine! The old ladies, vindictive and cruel, and poor George - and THE SMELL he will never forget. And that cat. And the apprentice. Everything comes together somehow as only you manage! #LOVE this!

Blurt? Is this for real? To see garbage rewarded, good stuff ignored... story of our lives, eh? You're wanted here - by me at least! Wherever you go, i follow!

I'm so sorry your wife's aunt is suffering a SECOND round of cancer - as if one round wasn't enough! Indeed, "Life is hard." My sister is suffering the side effects of chemo. Six months of chemo,

No, no, nothing you said - just, some people miss out on a good thing because their attention is elswhere. Their loss!! You are one of a small circle of living writers I keep promoting, thinking "word

Thank you Yahia! Nobody deserves the pain, discomfort, and life-altering inconvenience of cancer and chemo. Be well... I'm wishing everyone well, and safe! - thanks again Yahia. :)

Thanks so much, @futuremind, for being so understanding - and cutting me some slack. :) My sister is tired from chemo and "in a lot of pain" - she who'd whip up a turkey dinner from scratch several

THIRTEEN DAYS AGO You tagged me (thank you!) I read your Ending and it's a surprise twist, all right: I had envisioned these boys teaming up, fighting for their lives against the stranger. But I'm too

How many ways can I say I LOVE THIS????? This: to make his lonely mother happy. She lived for him and only him, ever since his father had died of a routine medical procedure gone terribly wrong. Farnsworth's

I love you Stacey!!!!

LOL - the one, glaring error we all miss. Even the most polished, professional writers. Our mistakes are INVISIBLE to us. And not just in our writing but in our spoken words, our daily lives, with all

I love Deborah! Love the outdoor quartets, the live music, soooo much. It's fun watching You-Tube videos t home with Miles: "I know that guitarist," that keyboard player, that bassist, "I've

Never mind that this looks like the same link as the one right above it. Go by the song title. This one is "I love you too much." German "zuviel" is "Zifeel" in Yiddish....

And so I sent a link to the Barry Sister to this young friend born and raised in Israel. Granted, she is young enough to be my daughter. No shock that she would not like these singers. But she said their
