Old Man Jeremy
‘Twas his time to leave this place,
to pass into the silence, full of grace.
He struggled and fought,
but this day no more life could be bought.
The grim reaper had come calling,
and his timing was nothing short of appalling.
His brethren made no fuss,
to them this is life and so must pass as thus.
At the bridge he now waits,
with family and friends before the pearly [...]

You Have Got To Be Kidding
Those were the first words out of my mouth. I started the day pretty much the same as any other Monday. I woke up; made sure Mrs.R was waking up; went into the kitchen to get bowls out for Jake the rabbit and the cats morning meal.
I then went to the bakers rack in the [...]
One Hour, Forty-Five Minutes
Our Roo, or Rasta-Roo of late, after one hour and forty-five minutes is now a smooth backed cat. After some protests and a few sad meows he seems to be feeling much better for the experience.
Still to this day, after almost four years now, we cannot figure out why Roo grows his fur out in dreads. To [...]
Papa Ink Passes
Inky, our oldest Berkshire pet rat took his final sleep last night. This morning at breakfast Mrs.R found Inky under the ramp, one of his favorite places, already gone to the Rainbow Bridge.
We recently moved Inky to the lower level of the “big” FN to help with his advancing age. We moved a few of [...]
MobilePress plug-in added
I came across an interesting “new” plug-in for Rattitude.com named MobilePress. I like the way it looks on my iPod Touch, very clean and simple in its default format; and, it doesn’t affect the standard web browser display!
Currently, when browsing with a mobile such as a cell phone or iPhone/iPod Touch the recent posts are [...]
Twitterific
I just added the Twitterific app from IconFactory to my iPod Touch. The idea is good, but I’m not so sure it is what I am looking for. The long list of tweets from unknown individuals is a bit much for me. I was hoping to be able to just view those people I choose [...]
Tweets
I just added the Twitter for WordPress plugin. Not that I may use it all that much but it was an interesting experience with the new WordPress 2.7 RC2 client that I am using.
So, look to the right and you will find after the “Lastest Posts” list my “Tweets” list. It will update automatically (I hope) [...]
Mea Culpa
It would seem I was not the first choice for Kaden’s middle name of Alexander.
I am quite proud of my middle name, Alexandre, as it was my grandfather’s middle name. A good Scotsman that he was, it was spelled as Kaden’s is in the more common fashion of Alexander. My father is a Frenchman, an Acadian [...]
Hyper’s Gone
It’s been quite a crazy couple of days. We have a brand new grandson, Mrs.R and the Jack Ratticus are speaking again, and our little Hyper girl moved on to the Rainbow Bridge.
In all the excitement of Kaden’s arrival I did not want to leave Hyper’s passing as only a footnote to recent events.
Hyper was [...]
