Costello, in his favorite bed, discovers a dopped Prarie agate heel cut. it may or may not have been staged. Costello & a Prairie Agate preform by Stephan T., on Flickr "Oh, cool, a rock... hi, I wasn't doing anything... hey, look, a ceiling fan...." Usually, I'll make collages square or wide. Decided to do this one "photo-booth style." I might still change it.... I like the photo-booth look to it! And I must say, Costello has EXCELLENT taste in rocks! LOL

Photo 2: "I bet it's a toy. I will play with it." Photo 3: "It's not a toy. I bet I can eat it." Photo 4: "I can't eat it. Human, why are you giving me things I can neither play with nor eat? Do I have to retrain you?" Photo 5: Feline ADD. Exhibit A.

Some nice action shots there, although I'm a little concerned about the size of your beans. If we are going to take things in this direction, I may have to add some cats and corn husks photos.

An obligatory rock photo to offset my shameless cat-centric posts.

They are Asian long beans (aka purple snake beans and yard-long beans). They're supposed to be that long. Testing for "doping" with rBGH (recombinant bean growth hormone) won't be needed. As for for the proposed photos... it's your thread. I won't stop you. I was just stalling. I also have cats with radishes photos (Costello likes to steal them out of my lunch bags -- the root gives the pretty red ball a nice handle -- or would it be a "mouthle," since he doesn't use his hands?).

An obligatory rock photo to offset my shameless cat-centric posts. Imperial jasper? I have one slab (somewhere) that looks a lot like the one at 3:00, and am struggling to ID it.

Yes, all royal imperial jasper nodules. The "royal" meaning they are small nodules with a chalking exterior. As opposed to imperial jasper, which formed in veins. Cold mountain jasper (a thunder egg) looks a whole lot like the ones at 2:00 and 4:00 as well. So much so that I would have thought I got duped, except that one cut like a hard porcelain jasper and not like a rhyolite.

Still no snakes, but more cats and stones.

I will need to train Costello to be more systematic and do that. Do you own the trademark?

Paw polish. 1,000,000 grit. If you could only breed them to do that, you would bet set for life with the sales you could make here!

When they slip out of his paws it seems to trigger a prey-slipping-away instinct, because he gets really fired up about it! When I send you a few slabs I'll include a tumbled stone or two so you can test your cats for this behavior. It works better with tumbled stones than cabs since the tumbles are shiny and slippery on all sides.

I will posts reviews from Abbott and Costello, once I have them, and see how the fun compares to a laser pointer.
