My mom bought me a Kit-Cat clock. On the one hand, it’s silly. But on the other hand, it’s a memento of my dear departed friend Merrill, the polydactyl tuxedo cat who loved to play fetch:

When I was a kid I was fascinated by moving clocks. One of our neighbors had several that were mesmerizing, […]

For awhile, I fed two neighborhood cats. “White Kitty,” the one appearing second in this video, and “Silver,” a kitten I caught and had neutered, then re-released.

Update: January 17, 2008
I created five Lumiere videos between June 27 - July 22, 2007, in response to encouragement from fellow vlogger Andreas Haugstrup Pedersen. It was fun. My videos, along with those of many others, were linked to from videoblogging.info.
In August 2007, Andreas Haugstrup Pedersen and Brittany Shoot published the Lumiere Manifesto. I wish […]
