Thanks, Michael, for the link to my Keaggy piece! This is how far behind I am in my inbox reads! I love the Mika-in-a-box! How long before pet stores stop selling "cat toys" and such, and just start selling boxes of various sizes?! I'm still waiting for the brave cat-owner to simply place a thimble on the floor, and see what happens! Let's see just how far this "if I fits, I sits" thing goes!!

Those "Jesus was a Capricorn" lyrics are pretty amazing. I thought that might have been Rita Coolidge on the album cover, and sure enough.

My cat loves amazon boxes too. Wonder if there's some catnip in the cardboard.

I intentionally left that part out in the post - I may have known at some point they were married, but forgot apparently, then (re?)discovered it in my reading, but I left it to smart folks like you to see it. I’ve since read about their fruitful but tumultuous life together - life in the spotlight for two talented people must be difficult!

Mika’s the beneficiary of my Amazon addiction, so her choices are limited! She does like tearing the hell out of them with her claws though….

I only found out yesterday when I bought a stack of discounted books, including a memoir by Rita. I knew she'd been with Leon Russell, but not that she'd been married to Kris. Looking forward to reading more about life together for those two talented people.
