I named my insane Calico kitteh Schrodinger. I came up with my own answer to the thought experiment and decided that the Cat was most definitely alive.

Worked a 3 to 1 shift (pm to am) then drove seven hours home (new job, new city, still owned the house in the old city)

i almost hit a bobcat on the way home…which is impressive considering they don’t live this far north. Three times i dodged around things that weren’t there.

best drive ever.

Back in the mid-80′s I was a college student in Champaign-Urbana, IL. My friend and I did two Jazzfests, two years in a row…back when it was real, Man, and hadn’t been taken over by the corporate suits. Yeah, Man.

We would leave at 8pm on Thursday night and drive all night through MO, AR, MS all the way down to the Big Easy. 920 miles. Smoking cigars, drinking beer, and listening to Ray Charles and BB King the whole way. Would arrive Friday morning, hit the fairgrounds, drink beer the whole day in the hot sun, and then look for a place to stay.

25 years later, it is incomprehensible to me how I could ever have done that. I can’t even keep my eyes open past 9pm most evenings nowadays.

The 1st cat I ever had when I was 6 I named Kitty DuPwah. She had 3 kittens that I named until they got homes, Measly, Retardo and Doofus. The wierd names of my pets sort of stuck- Ixion, Maru, Jared, and Jelly.
