I have traveled to the shrine and made my obeisances. I have laid my right hand upon the top of Shorty. I have experienced the exhilaration of Mudcat in the Center Of The Mudcat Multiverse.

In other words I had a great time. Max is a sweet kid with great potential and a wonderful sense of what he has wrought. I am proud to say he is now one of my friends.

Bert too is a wonderful human being and a great new friend in my world. He and I went out on Thursday to a local Irish pub for supper and beer. There was a live performer there and some who were there to hear him. They seemed very familiar with the performer, possibly personal friends. All in all it was a good evening with old friends and new. (I think I can call Bert an old friend.) We even met someone who admitted to being a lurker and a guest. He promised to join up so I hope to see him here somewhere.

Unfortunately I had to cut my night out with Bert short. I had a test the next day plus I had to pack for my trip home. I seem to be getting a name for wimping out early. It's libel I say, libel and slander!

On my way home I stopped in to visit Sinsull and we had a nice visit. Her cats are fun as long as you stay on Ed's good side and are careful to treat Ed and Homie equally. She has some Mudkittens on the way thanks to Alice, her most recent cat. Get your orders in quick!
