Okay, first, I promised Joey I would scare up a picture of The Old Spaghetti Factory in Louisville, Kentucky, and I did.
Ain’t she a beaut? Yes, that’s a Cinderella carriage out front; you can totally eat spaghetti and then go for a horse-drawn carriage ride. Or, of course, the other way around. Or one or the other. It’s just Liberty Hall around there!
Jane and I were walking between the restaurant and the coffee shop the other day, and she spotted this water meter cover all tagged up. She suggested I take a picture, so I did. Anybody have any idea why a Louisville water meter cover has INDIA on it, or what that white script with the arrow might mean?
I found out Jane has never seen the Dear Kitten commercials! I tried to show her one, but the sound on my tablet is so wee she couldn’t hear it. So here is one. Watch ALL THE ONES!
A WRITING PROMPT FOR YOU: What does your main character feel about friendship in theory? Does his or her actual range of relationships match the theory or not?

August 12, 2016 at 8:25amAwesome! Very similar to here! I wanted to see your Minecraft photo of The Old Spaghetti Factory, because the pics on that post didn’t load properly, but this is a nice treat, indeed.
My family loves Dear Kitten commercials. Oh the ‘vakoooom’! 😀
I did a brief Google on the manhole thingy and there are plenty made in India. I wonder why we don’t make our own? Are there no ironworkers here in America?
Happy weekend to you 🙂

August 12, 2016 at 9:02amI don’t understand about the pics not loading, since they show up fine for me. 🙁 Anyway, my Minecraft house looks nothing like The Old Spaghetti Factory, it’s just that it’s brightly lit. 🙂
That’s so odd about the iron covers being made in India. Sure wouldn’t want to be on any boat carrying a full cargo of THOSE.

August 12, 2016 at 11:13amCute commercial. They have to be, for me to watch them.
I didn’t even mind the little bit of selling – not that I have a cat, but a company paid to make the cute cat video, and the least I can do is watch the sales pitch at the end. Besides, it was cute cats eating whatever that was produced by Purina.
Not against cats – love them at other people’s houses – but I already have a legacy chinchilla, and I’m barely managing to entertain her.

August 13, 2016 at 9:04amI even have a photo of a manhole cover here in Houston that says “Houston – Made in India” for sale on Shutterstock. Funny, really, isn’t it?
I did a google search on the manhole cover to see if it would unearth the graffiti tag, but nothing. To me, it looks like a stylized “You can” or “toucan” but I’m not sure. Not much to go by, here, but it’s a cool site if you enjoy graffiti art: http://www.fatcap.com/crews.html
LOVE the Dear Kitten video – that was one I hadn’t seen, yet.

August 24, 2016 at 7:07pmI love the “Dear Kitten” video!
It made me laugh out loud, especially the cat wrapped around his owner’s head.
And what an accomplished cat-actor!
Unfortunately, both of my cats slept through it.
Thanks for sharing.
