that they can make mccain step down. going back to his first elected office that's how the "obama roolz" seem to work.

Must be because it worked (5.00 / 3) (#90)

with Illinois politics -

where Obama's mentor Lewis got other legislators to back off so amendments etc all of a sudden ended up with Obama's name on them

His so-called flury of legislation - the work was actually proposed by others

Danger Kitty has been trying... (none / 0) (#105)

that training thing with me to get up earlier and earlier to feed her and let her out on the porch.

Thus far, I've rebelled. But her pattern gets a bit more determined the longer I refuse to move.

Time to turn the tables on the kitty. I never give in to my cats in the AM. from the day I bring them home, the last activity in the morning before I leave is to feed them. And since I keep my own sched, that gives me even more flexibility. I had a friend that would get up at 5:30 on the weekends because that's when she fed the cats during the week. That doesn't work for me  ;)

I was shocked she did. (none / 0) (#163)

and she did it for about 10 yrs.

not an option here, unless it's a sick kitty or bottle feeding. but day to day, my cats can suck it up until I'm ready to feed them  ;)
