THIS looks like more in the header, but it's a mistake: http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/reb/1460271944… So, so far, top price is 20 mil.— November 15, 2009 1:17 p.m.

Actually, that last one was too cheap. http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/reb/1462669535…— November 15, 2009 1:15 p.m.

Feeding the Beast
"re: #13: Speaking of noble savages, what kind of idea did you have for our animal friends, AG?" <snort> Huh? LOL. Who's the noble savage, Daniels? Me or the four-leggeds? Maybe you know me better than I think. :) Honestly, what I'd like to see is so politically infeasible, I don't think 'anyone' could 'ever' pull it off. Animal charities need an umbrella organization like the United Way. As it is, they're scattered and mostly broke (especially NOW, which is probably the worst time ever to be trying to do anything for animals). They'd be stronger together, and could accomplish a lot more by pooling their limited resources. How fantastic would it be to have an education center that features lectures on animals by personnel who deal with them and authors who write about them? Veterinarians, zoo personnel, researchers on animal intelligence, horse trainers, dog trainers, marine biologists, etc., etc. In addition, the various charities could send speakers as well, to promote their individual org, recruit new membership, raise funds, etc. I was AMAZED at the number of different animal-related nonprofits I found in San Diego when I researched all this 5 years ago. I'm sure some have gone under, and new ones have sprung up. The type of place I had in mind would be supported by an education-focused book and gift store, entirely focusing on both wild and domestic animals. Profits to cover overhead, salaries, and the remainder to be split among the member orgs. Could also be a location for pet adoptions and sales of pet food and supplies. Problems? Huge and lots. Just to name two: VERY expensive to get off the ground, and then you'd have to deal with all the individual egos and isolationist attitudes that a lot of the orgs are bound to have. Egos are as big a problem as money. I think most of the orgs are probably as much a social club as they are philanthropic. I would anticipate a huge amount of cliquishness and resistance to doing anything differently. I'd like to eventually spend some time studying the details of how the United Way functions. As for me, I've wanted to volunteer at a shelter for years, but what that means is that MY needy little pet gets left at home alone more than she already is, and I already feel guilty about that. Between school and work, she spends a huge amount of time trapped in here alone. Same with the previous kitty. I can't see neglecting mine to spend time with other ones. I do help to feed and water an outdoor cat on a mail route. Did it yesterday, in fact. Sylvester's looking good, for an old guy that lives outside. He was sleek and shiny. :)— November 15, 2009 12:33 p.m.

Oooooh. No, I missed post #69. That certainly 'does' look like it could be our very own Pike's bloggery, doesn't it? Looks like fun. :)— November 14, 2009 10:18 p.m.

Heehee. Did you see the Dollar Store wedding on the tacky weddings link? I really wasn't sure what was going on there -- if they had the wedding in the store, the reception, or WTF was going on. Of course, there's always WalMart. http://www.peopleofwalmart.com/?cat=5&paged=44 (Pete's favorite site. Damn it for not having a search function.)— November 14, 2009 9:07 p.m.

Okay, I see her now. I don't think Daniels is knocked up, so we don't have to worry about THAT happening. As for the mystery man: http://www.bobgruen.com/files/marcbolan.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Bolan Pike, like most of the other bloggers here (including the Divine Ms. G) has yet to grace us with a pic of his fabulous self. Mine was up, but I changed it to my kitty last week. :) So many choices to make for a wedding, aren't there? So much planning! I'm exhausted already, and we still haven't picked a Dollar Store location for the reception!— November 14, 2009 8:34 p.m.

Re #76: Now THAT is some major skankery, going on right there! The THONG on the motorcycle? Holy cats. It really is the fall of Rome and Armageddon, meeting up in the middle of a black hole in time.— November 14, 2009 8:28 p.m.
