Update 4/2/2007: In case it wasn't clear, the topic of this post is part an April fool's joke. Yes, those are our cats, and I love them to death, but I hope cat blogging is the last thing you'd expect from me. The other part was a wholesale switch to the most obnoxious advertisements I could find on the front page of this blog. If you didn't get to see it, check out a screenshot. A static screenshot doesn't do the blinking, flashing, and live video (with sound!) justice, but it's nothing you haven't seen before elsewhere. Unfortunately.
Awww your cats are adorable! I’m not a programmer, but my boyfriend is! He gave me the link to this blog when he saw you were talking about your cats. I Love cats (and all animals, but I find cats suit my personality better!) We also own two cats, both are long haired so I hear ya about vaccuuming! And like Elsie, our Tiana loves to open cupboards, closets, wardropes and hide in them! I laughed when you talked about child locks! We bought them too (but have yet to install them!).
Cute cat! I like this cats. =]
hehe, It’s Best April Fool Joke that I seed today.
(Sorry my english, I’m to tired to remember how to spell some words…)
I am an animal lover too, especially cats. I think I love cats the most when they are tenderly cooked in a crock pot, bathed in zesty seasonings and smothered in my favorite barbeque sauce. I guess I would avoid eating them if I had a problem with rodents, because at that point they would be somewhat useful. Other than that, they are pretty much large rats. If I had a choice between eating a cow and a cat, I would probably choose the cat because cattle are SOOO cute!
Sorry Jeff, I read your blog regularly, and the ads not only pissed me off, they were crashing my preferred browser. I figured you were hacked, or were making some sort of traffic point and completely missed the April Fools aspect until reading the comments. Hope you take the ads out of this entry tomorrow.
cute. I have a dog (from a rescure home) a cat. The cat came first and I sometimes wish that I’d just stuck to the cat! It’s not much fun taking the dog out for a walk and getting caught in a downpour
Off on a tangent: was your site hacked or was it an April Fools joke? If the latter, it had me fooled.
Looks like your new ads are trying to spoof Adblock Plus. When I try to Block Link, it shows something like the Wikipedia address with “/April Fool’s Day” tacked on. I had to block all of them with just Block Image.
