Items for the next S4K auctions include Skype chat with her and Robin Dunne, also that personal item she was referring to earlier is apparently a Carter SG-1 jacket.
Also one item is: have one of the cast record your voicemail message!
In addition there's an update on the S4K blog, with a story of how much difference $500 dollar can make in a Nepali boy's life. It's amazing how much so little money can do!

I've only one cat, though I've attempted to adopt another in the past thinking a playmate/companion might be a good thing while I was away or at work during the day. She definitely vetoed that idea when I brought home a kitten once so unfortunately, he was returned to his litter the next day. Thankfully the little kitten found a good home elsewhere so my guilt was assuaged.
As to my cat's name. Heh, I just got in the habit of calling her 'Bit' since she was born since she was the runt of the litter (she was a tiny 'bit' of a handful..get it?) Anyways, the name stuck so no matter how much I would rather change it now, she wouldn't listen/answer to anything else

Little bit Well, she definitely has character
My elderly cat is very frail, but he's still the alpha cat around here. I was going to say top dog, but that's not right. He has actually just climbed into bed with me, as I was writing the previous sentence. Hiya, my Tigger. I got him when I was 6, so he is 17 years old now. When he was younger he was all muscle and sleek as anything.
4 years ago we got 2 sisters. One came to live here and we called her Yeti, since the extended family have run out of Bigfoot names (the have 7 toes on each paw and look slightly ridiculous) so we went onto other mythical monsters She is teeny and black and absolutely the opposite of a Yeti. She has just had her second litter of kittens and just seems impossibly tiny to have managed it. All of their eyes are now open
Her sister originally went to my sister in town, but she came back to live with us for a couple of reasons... my sister seems particularly allergic to this family of cats, and she kept coming home to find her loser flatmate trying get the cat high. Exhaling marijuana smoke in her face, the poor thing. So cruel. So she's a bit stupid, and eats everything she can get her paws on. So while she should be a small cat like her sister, she waddles everywhere. Her name is Schrödinger, but we call her Schro, Fat Cat or Garbage Guts.
ETA: haha, my sister is paying the $45 Mensa registration fee just to settle an argument at work. I decided not to join years ago, because they all seem like such insufferable snobs about it all. I lied to the teacher who was bothering me to join and said my result didn't qualify, because I really didn't see how this one type of intelligence should be valued over others.Last edited by NZNeep; 09 April 2011, 02:18 PM.Neep, NZBG, Eileen!

The last time I checked into Mensa, they wanted $100 just for the test. Somehow I just can't bring myself to spend that much money for a test. Thought it might be a good way to meet people, but if they're anything like the folks that you met, then that wouldn't be for me.Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.

In New Zealand they charge $45 for the test and if you pass, then that same $45 counts as your first annual membership fee.
I dunno, maybe it was just this one teacher. Some people seem to really enjoy it.Neep, NZBG, Eileen!
