Happy Birthday Zeke!
I cannot believe the little fluff ball is 6 years old! He never seemed to mature from a kitten mentally, as you can probably tell from the photos of him that are published here. He was born of two feral Maine Coons. He took up residence in a flower pot on a neighbor’s front porch. His original name was “Mop”. They did not want him. I did not want a sixth cat either at the time, but I took him anyway. He was so cute and small. “I won’t take up much room,” he said. I am glad I took him in. Now he is the male of the household of 3 cats. We have made an adjustment to his birthday using astrology, and now fix it on July 8. Following are some older photos of him most of which I do not think have been shown:
Zeke in a box
Zeke loves cardboard boxes. I have an assortment of them around the house. Here he is checking the weather. Looks like he decided to stay inside today!
Zeke the Shiek / “Toby Jug” book review / Deer me!
Zeke is doing his Rudolph Valentino impression. Valentino made the silent film The Shiek in 1921. Here he is below. I see the resemblance!

Zeke and Armed Forces Day
Today is Armed Forces Day. The holiday was created in 1949 by President Truman to celebrate the patriots in the armed forces. Today I decided to show a vintage F86D “Sabre Dog”. I took the photograph at the JBLM (McChord) Air Museum. Something about this picture does not look right. Anyway, The Sabre Dog first flew in 1952 and could go as fast as 700 miles per hour. It carried no guns. It had four missiles inside an internal weapons bay. It was an interceptor designed to shoot down bombers.
This sabre dog is painted in the 317th Fighter Interceptor Squadron colors, which all of their airplanes had.

Zeke had a little lamb. It’s fleece was white as snow. Everywhere that lamby went, Zeke was sure to go.
