Caturdays And Shamrock Shakes

"Happy Caturday everybody". If "Catuday" doesn't mean anything to you, it's because: (a) you are not a cat person; and/or (b) you have never been to "FARK" or "ICANHASCHEESEBURGER" or anywhere else on the web that a person has posted something on a Saturday in honor of their beloved kitteh(s).

I first found out about Caturday from the lovely men and women who post comments, pictures, etc. on the website "FARK" (wonderful site, you should visit it if you haven't already; you'll find some interesting news articles on it (but its the headline descriptions that keep me coming back, and the cats -- just be mindful that the people on FARK are very "passionate" and will, in kind, respond to anything you might have to say)).

In order to post pictures of their beloved kitties (or dogs, guinea pigs, various other animals or selves) a lot of the people use "ICANHASCHEESEBURGER" to post their pictures and make "LOL's". (A LOL--as demonstrated above by my Murphy (who was very helpful)--is a picture you can upload onto the "ICANHASCHEESEBURGER" site and you then can put a funny saying on the picture, put a tribute on the picture, or put whatever kind of saying you want to put on the picture (which you can then submit to post on the site so that you have a copy of your own LOL). In order to post, I do believe that you have to create a sign-on, but its easy and fun to do. [They also have "FAIL" and other things you can look at or create LOLs of.]

As for "Shamrock Shakes": It's that most wonderful time of the year [one of them] when the Shamrock Shake is brought out for consumption. It runs at MickyD's from the day after Valentine's Day to St. Patties Day (at all McDonalds)-- some McDonald's go longer. They've changed the way they make them over the years, and now it's just the vanilla shake with creme de menthe (non-alcoholic version) put in it. Last night my Pocket Ferengei and I fed our cravings for McDonalds and had our first Shamrock's for the season. They were introduced in 1970 (thank you "Wikipedia") and I remember my Muzzy (what we called our Mom, Dad was always "Dad-O") bringing home the shakes for us after Valentine's Day. Those were some great times.

Anyway, Happy Caturday to everyone.
