Douglas,

Nice pictures of Posy enjoying a sunbeam.  Thanks also for clarifying in a 
later 
post that it was Herb who suggested "Saturday Cat" shots.

I'm of two minds about only Saturdays for cat pictures, on one hand is 
Herb's 
obvious wisdom, on the other is the cat itself for which every day is a cat 
day. 
  Then there is the confusion of the calendars, we humans are accustomed to 
the 
Julian and Gregorian calendars, at least in the west, however, what about 
"eight 
days a week" or the metaphysical cat calendar which must have nine days 
related 
to the proverbial nine cat lives? Converting between those physical, 
musical, 
and metaphysical calendars, keeping track of what day it might be in 
Kirmati, 
and most importantly keeping the cats happy leads me to the conclusion that 
the 
Saturday restriction, while appealing, might safely be occasionally ignored.

Best,

John
