I have always loved all the cool coffee images, and I am not the "cute cat" type, but *guffahs* !! Love today's image! That critter has the glazed eyes of a genealogist....

Thanks for your work. It's usually what I hit first, although that may be at night. Always something worthwhile and new. Thanks for the yet-another grin!
