Sorry to hear about your cat. Some of them grow on a person just like dogs do . They can get such unique personalities . We have an unknown number of cats ( over twenty ) that we feed including at least 8 kittens , about half have names other than kitty-kitty . We usually have more dogs than cats though we are down to 12 dogs now from 20 at the most . Each and every one ( almost ) has a special place in our hearts and 9 of them even have a special place in the house except for the aussy cattle dog and the siberians who don't much like the heat inside . We used to rescue all breeds , right now we even have a possum in rehab that was run over with all it's litter-mates on the road , it was the only one to survive though it's now blind ( a friendly little critter too ) . We have a three-legged cat named Tripod , a cat that had it's tail surgically removed name Bob , a rescued spaniel that's more or less mentally retarded due to severe dehydration as a puppy when my wife found it under a neighbors corn crib after they let the momma lay in their driveway dead for 4 days and drove around it through the yard to avoid touching it , a dalmation that my wife had to walk in front of hunters to rescue because they were shooting at him as a puppy but missed and were laughing at how scared it was , and the list goes on . We have dogs from as small as a 4lb toy poodle to as large as a 140lb rotweiller with most of them weighing over thirty pounds . Most of our cats have been solid black and on the small side but that's recently been changing and now we are getting some strays with color and size showing up . I forgot to mention the 5 horses and one chicken too . the chicken has got to be at least 8 years old , I didn't know chickens lived that long ! I hope this might cheer you and Mrs 730 up some . We love all types of animals and have probably had them on this farm as rescues or pet's at one time or another including the wild ones that most people want gone . Take care ...Randy

Talk of the Town: Winterizing Engines - To Drain or Not to Drain? - by Russ Berry. What is this strange attraction I have to equipment and machinery? How did I get this way? I came from the suburbs and own a small horse farm in rural Loudoun County, Virginia. You can call me a "weekend farmer." The local farmers do. Does it bother me? No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
