JK>Hope it works out for you!  I haven't heard much from
JK>Shannon in a bit but last we heard he was making his way to
JK>Texas - I think he was able to find a good job.

Hope so.  Its not an area I'd want to be looking for a job in.

JK>While it was nice standing there and having the "men" go through and pack
JK>everything, it was more than frustrating when we realized
JK>that somehow the moving company had lost all my cookbooks
JK>and all gardening books!  It wasn't worth the hassle trying

Ouch.  Not good.  I've never had anything lost yet.  Havent had a
problem with anything damaged either.  One 20G fishtank and that wasnt
worth filing over.

Oh my!  Well, mostly we recall the cats coming in plastered with wet
kitty litter and it's contents after flying over while we drove across
country.  SIL took them straight to a pet 'beauty parlor' where they
found out Roscoe loves bubble baths <grin>.  Face though?  I gather it
took 3 of them to give her a bath (and they had to use a
mini-tranquilizer).  (Face was one of our cats, wierd name but she had
'one of those unforgettable faces' and it stuck).  Roscoe was a
hymilayan (cant spell that, you know what i mean) and Face was 'American
Black Beauty' breed. Both were rescue kitties and both were pure breds
if you can believe that.  Roscoe came from a not very reliable breeder
and had 'failure to thrive' syndrome.  Vet said we'd be lucky if he saw
his 5th year.  He lived to be 13.  Face was early in a new breed and was
considered a cull but healthy.  She turned out to be point perfect for
the breed but gawky as a kitten (outgrew it).  Her only non-show aspect
was her withers were a little longer than the books show as optimal and
she was slightly smaller at 8lbs.
