While the art world looks promising, I made a trip to my local pet store who have cats up for adoption. There were six gorgeous little guys who were all ready for adoption and had all been abandoned by someone. I told them that I was surprised this went on and they said that it happens all the time.

just caught Klodi's new set, pretty impressive pics. They have an art print quality to them. I was wowed by them. Its funny but this site keeps surprising me. Just when I think I've seen the best set ever, someone else comes up with something different. Nice stuff.
