benos Posted June 21, 2018 Author Share Posted June 21, 2018 To the left of the white box is a baby saguaro cactus, in my neighbor's yard. Here is a pic of the northern leaning Golden Barrel cactus. And here is a pic of my cat, whose name is Nobody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benos Posted June 21, 2018 Author Share Posted June 21, 2018 He's the most affectionate cat I've ever seen or heard of. All he wants to do is hang out. When I'm on the porch late night listening to music, he's on the ground or in a chair next to me. If I come inside to watch a TV show, he comes in and chills on the couch with me.

I was hoping you would post on the origin of Nobody's name. Note to everyone but Powder Finger... Powder Finger's Avatar is the clue to the origin of Nobody's name.

benos Posted June 22, 2018 Author Share Posted June 22, 2018 Nice work on that Grump. And yes, that is a plastic rattlesnake. After its initial installation, it scared the crap out of a few folks. The best of which was my mailman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was pretty sure Brian got the name from a film of some sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miranda Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 name... no name... what does it matter? I want a cat like that. the current mouser I have... is of the opinion being petted is quite optional. he sits just out of reach. I consider him a useless bum. Even if he does catch mice. miranda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benos Posted June 22, 2018 Author Share Posted June 22, 2018 Nice one miranda! And Benham, yes, Nobody's name came from the movie Dead Man. Here's how it went down. Candis is a teacher. One day a little before last Christmas, a fellow teacher arrived at school and hear a cat meowing in the engine compartment. Candis took the cat into her classroom for the day. With the intention of bring the cat home, and we would find someone to adopt him. (We know lots of cat people.) By the end of that evening I realized that the cat wasn't going anywhere. He was so freaking cute. No balls were visible, so we worked on girl names. A week later balls dropped out so we started working on boy names. Coincidentally, at that time, an old friend and I were emailing on the movie Dead Man. Then it all made sense. Thought it was girl. Thought it was a boy. Of course the cat is Nobody. Being Nobody, the cat is everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
