News from the Editor in Chief

Zeke reporting! Normally we don’t post on Thursdays but we are all house-bound! The air quality is SO bad from the wildfires in Oregon and British Columbia blowing over us we can hardly see or breathe! Greg got hit the worst! He’s hacking too! Here is a photo from Tuesday on the way to the Ford dealer for warranty service. That thing in the left corner is the sun! Looks like we are on Venus!

Anyway, a funny thing to show you from the waiting room.

Steamboat Queen

Marigold dice ball

STEAMBOAT QUEEN

Marigold was a steamboat queen,

The purrtiest cat that you’ve ever seen!

With long creamy hair

And those big green eyes,

We’re all in love.

I can tell no lies!

She has a picture in bed,

Hangin’ over the bar.

The sultriest cat in the bay by far.

She runs the gambling tables,

The dice and the wheel,

And it’s not just by chance

That you got a bad deal!

It’s snake eyes you’ll get,

DON’T you know?

Whether Anchorage, Alaska,

or cold Juneau.

Seattle, Tacoma,

Vancouver too,

She’ll win your money–

Nothing you can do.

Cats, stay away

From her games of sin,

And the green-eyed temptress

Who will lure you in,

With plates of fresh tuna–

Everything is free!

Won’t you sit a while and

Play a little game with me?

Hanging over the bar

Old signature block for Greg

(The featured photo of Marigold with ball and die is from 2013. She is doing quite well at the moment.)
