Greyfriar’s BobbyJohn Gray (also known as Jock), a gardener, with his wife Jess and son John arrived in Edinburgh in the early 1800′s. Due to harsh weather the ground was unworkable and there was no work for gardeners. In order to avoid the workhouse, he joined the Edinburgh Police Force as Constable No. 90 Warrant No 1487.

Any fake phone number a girl gave you would automatically forward your call to her real number.

Nodding and looking at your watch would be deemed an acceptable response to “I love you.”

Hallmark would make “Sorry, what was your name again?” cards.

When your girlfriend really needed to talk to you during the game, she’d appear in a little box in the corner of the screen during a time-out.

Breaking up would be a lot easier. A smack to the ass and a “Nice hustle, you’ll get ‘em next time” would pretty much do it.

Birth control would come in ale or lager.

You’d be expected to fill your resume with gag names of people you’d worked for, like “Heywood J’Blowme.”

Each year, your raise would be pegged to the fortunes of the NFL team of your choice.

The funniest guy in the office would get to be CEO.

“Sorry I’m late, but I got really wasted last night” would be an acceptable excuse for tardiness.

Tanks would be far easier to rent.

Garbage would take itself out.

Instead of beer belly, you’d get “beer biceps.”

Instead of an expensive engagement ring, you could present your wife-to-be with a giant foam hand that said, “You’re #1!”

Valentine’s Day would be moved to February 29th so it would only occur in leap years.

“Cops” would be broadcast live, and you could phone in advice to the pursuing cops.(Or to the crooks.)

The only show opposite “Monday Night Football” would be “Monday Night Football From A Different Camera Angle.”

Telephones would automatically cut off after 30 seconds of conversation.

Siamese cats are the most fascinating creatures. I had always wanted one. Finally, after many years, I was able to get one. Qing came into our lives as a kitten and quickly took over.He was originally purchased for my husband but my daughter became his best friend and, therefore, he was hers. However, after a new kitten came into our lives, Qing was quite distressed. He refused to eat and almost died. That’s where I came into the picture. After frantically trying to entice him to eat (actually cooking food strictly for him), without success, a trip to the vet resulted in obtaining appetite stimulants for him. He slept in my bed, on his back, with his feet straight up in the air for two weeks. When I was unable to get his medication down him, I decided he would live. After that, Qing was mine. He’ll sit in my lap, look over at my daughter, sniff and turn his head away.

He really is the most intelligent creature. We had to change all the door knobs because Qing cannot stand for any door to be closed to him. He would open them, walk around and then go to the next. If he cannot get into a room, he’ll stand at the door and bellow (that’s the only way to describe the bloodcurdling cry he makes). It is most alarming. He loves to lay in my lap while I watch television, knit or whatever. As long as he is with me, he’s happy. He is the most endearing of pets. The photograph is courtesy of Cat Fanciers.

Years ago, I was introduced to a unique jelly that has intrigued me since. I have explored the wilds of Florida searching for the fruit of this cactus and would like to share my thoughts with you.

The Prickly Pear Cactus protects itself with little hair-like thorns that are quite difficult to remove, once you have them inbedded in your flesh. The best thing is to avoid getting them in your skin at all. When I go to harvest the fruit, I wear gloves but harvest the fruit utilizing tongs and a sharp knife.

When you get the fruit home, place it in a brown paper bag and then in your freezer. After a couple of days, remove the fruit and wash it in deep, running water, using rubber gloves to move the fruit around. You will need to do this several times in order to remove all the hair-like thorns. Once this has been accomplished, simply following these directions:
