First post in a very long time. Was watching a Chinese miniseries of Netflicks called "Kill Me, Love Me" and the leading male character has a very strong resemblance to @johncusack. Drive me crazy trying to put a name to the face. Looked up "Say Anything" for the name.

It’s #GivingTuesday and a donor has put up $150 to be matched on this day of giving. Double your contribution by being one of the first to donate. As an added bonus, @givebutter will add 1% to every donation placed through the mrhwc.org website today. Please help!

Suzi was adopted yesterday and today we got the best update from her new daddy, Kevin. He just recently lost one of his cats and while we know Suzi could never replace their bond, he said she has filled a huge hole in his heart and she’s his precious. We love men who love animals

Today is the 246th anniversary of the battle between LeBohomme Richard & the HMS Serapis. Both ships were fought very well and from the battle came John Paul Jones’ immortal words when asked to surrender, “I have not yet begun to fight!"

Those who say "it's just a cat" have never had the honor of being loved by one. 🩷

I haven’t been on much, reading instead of tweeting I suppose. We just did a major electrical upgrade to the house that supports Mandarin’s Retreat. It was delightful to watch a master electrician at work. A true professional - Tony Garcia at DAG Electric.

And a big West Texas “Thank You” for Eric’s gift in memory of Madison. Anyone who has loved an animal for over a decade, understands the hole thats in your heart when she leaves. We honor you both, Eric!
