Exploring Some Urbans

So, various friends and I have been discussing the notion of Urban Exploration. This is a fancy-pants term for, like, nosing around areas which are off-limits to the general public.

Carry on my warward son...

Like A Cat

So Elvis the Cat is limping around, putting on his best Forlorn Eyes in an effort to get more food out of Annette and I. Only my cat could strain a muscle “perhaps falling off something” (the vets words, not mine). Whoever coined the phrase “Catlike Grace” did not own…
