tkdguy Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 Re: Musings on Random Musings Aug 30 I headed up to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. Great trip, and a good time of year. Photos of the trip: On the way back, we also stopped at Flaming Gorge Park and during lunch I found out a good friend of mine, also in Animal Rescue passed away that morning from Ovarian Cancer. She's been fighting it for years. That evening (Tuesday), when we were setting up camp at Flaming Gorge, I spotted a kitten. I talked to the Camp Host and found out she'd been left behind near the beginning of summer. Which means she'd been avoiding the Great Horned Owl, Coyotes, and other problems since. I didn't have the tools to catch her, so after I got back to Kanab, and picked up my kit, I drove back Friday to get her. I was successful and she's now hanging out in our bathroom. She's already eating baby food off our fingers, so I have good expectations on socialising her. Her name is Cathy, named for my friend. I'm sorry about your friend. Good job on rescuing the kitten. She sounds like she'll make a great pet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 Re: Musings on Random Musings Assessment? For us. Prescription for the administrators who want us to do assessment? That's where the exotic substances ought to go. So I need to develop metrics in which We Rock. I can do that, given how little those doofi (one doofus, two doofi) know about calibration of metrics.

Cancer Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Re: Musings on Random Musings No, the class was Math Meth ("Mathematical Methods for Physics").
