A blog is different from a column. Note the word column in the Reader's description of the column. Wonder if that means the Reader knows the difference too. "Barbarella was discovered in 2004 when Reader elves happened along her blog, Barbarella’s Pillow Talk. She has been writing her column, Diary of a Diva and Your Week and Welcome To It every week ever since. She also contributes cover features of her adventures and discoveries, and cohosts the weekly KOGO Reader Radio program. "Why the name diva? It’s the best thing we could come up with for a dominant woman, control-freak, and socialite who loves to tell it like it is, even though we all know she’s overcompensating for her inherent nerdiness. Barb continues to blog and posts pics on her personal web site, divabarbarella.com. She lives in Hillcrest with the man of her dreams, David"— March 4, 2010 9:14 p.m.

Interesting article, thank you.— March 4, 2010 9:01 p.m.

Actually, it is a column, a weekly column, published in a weekly alternative publication. That it happens to be published on the weekly's website does not make it a blog.— March 4, 2010 8:58 p.m.

Thomas, a big orange cat, sounds like a tasty treat for coyotes. Is this the last episode of Tundra, or are there more to come?— March 4, 2010 9:44 a.m.

Or I should say, that's how the FCC volunteer I know works. She, or sometimes I help her do this, will set traps on a pre-arranged Friday, the day before a Saturday clinic, we check the traps throughout the day, release any that are already tipped, clean and re-set the traps, until we fill as many traps as we've been able to, then she picks them up on Saturday morning and takes them to the clinic, the cats are examined, if they are ill or injured and the volunteer can house them while they are being treated, the vet will work on them, if they are deathly ill or have a contagious disease, generally they are put down. The ones who are healthy enough are then spayed or neutered, and handed over, she drives them home and watches them overnight, the healthy ones are released, the sick ones she treats until they are well enough to be released. What you have described sounds like a very short turnaround time, but it may be other volunteers work differently.— March 4, 2010 5:39 a.m.

Hello nan, bless your heart, nice to hear from you, as always. :)— March 4, 2010 4:32 a.m.

Quill, SOP for the Feral Cat Coalition is that the volunteers set traps for cats they believe are feral, take them to a pre-assigned clinic site, then after the cats are tested for FIV, and looked over by the vets, they are spayed or neutered. The volunteer then takes the cats they have had spayed or neutered home with them and watches them, usually overnight, then releases them back into the neighborhood. What you are describing sounds very unusual, ... When did this happen? Day, month, year, neighborhood?— March 4, 2010 3:31 a.m.

Thank you for making my point. There are countless ways to cook the books, countless ways to bend the figures, countless loopholes, countless arguments, and every politician says they will "clean up City Hall." There is no such animal, and it can't be cleaned up. The whole thing seems to be an illusion, a game, the Cheshire cat grinning and fading, grinning and fading grinning and fading ...— March 3, 2010 9:52 p.m.
