I have always loved pop up books. As a kid they were a favorite, and many of the cardboard pull tabs tore off from to many uses.
The book below is one of the best I have ever seen, and it was a present for that cute little 2 year old to the right. I can't wait to read it to her (lots of times).
This weekend I worked 23 hours - and really did not have time for anything. In the last 17 days, only Sunday the 22nd was spent away from the "office".
Notice the Chicken Page. Just this one pop-out is worth a million! You can find "FARMYARD Count to Ten" at any Barnes & Noble Bookstore.
** Farmyard Count to Ten, by Gill Davies -
I miss communicating with everyone that stops by here at my blog. Thanks for the comments in the last few weeks .... I read them on my mobile phone when I'm out and about. Hopefully I'll be able to swing by and see what you have been writing soon :-)

Interlachen CC in Minnesota Hosts the Womens Us Open Golf Tournament
Official Web Site of the 2008 U.S. Women's Open
With the US Open Golf Tournament just down the road in Edina Minnesota, the buzz about the professional women players is big news here. Even non golfers are talking about the championship.
This will be the last US Open for Annika Sorenstam, who "plans on retiring" from golf. This is a photo of her signing autographs on Wednesday after a practice round. While she has intentions of winning this week, ultimately she will finish second. How do I know? A little bird told the Cat.
Last years winner was Defending U.S. Open champion Cristie Kerr (left), and she is in Minnesota to defend her title. Will she win? No.
She does feel that Interlachen suits her game ... NOT ENOUGH!
Pictured left is Lorena Ochoa. She will be the winner come Sunday afternoon. Her length will be a factor on this long course (with five par 5's), and her ability to keep herself below the hole with shot making decisions will be key in shooting low scores here on the severely sloped and fast greens. Interlachen is a golf course where greens in regulation is not as important as putting yourself in the right position to get down in two. Lorena will also be able to reach the 18th green in 2 shots, so I expect her to be well under par on this finishing hole ... enough to win a US Open? Probably not, but her vast array of ammunition against this course will prove to be enough for the other players to fall behind.
Think women golfers are not feminine? Check out this picture of Pat Anderson, Christy Kerr, Paula Creamer, and Natalie Gulbis. I have a big crush on Natalie Gulbis!! click the link if you are a male, for a hotter picture
I have a signed picture of her on my wall at home. I wonder if she reads my blog?? {no she doesn't}Natalie will finish in a tie for 10th place at the Open.

Saturday Report & the Worlds FIRST Action Meme 4 U
Here is my Saturday in reverse .... starting with what I am doing now. As you can see my day is packed with adventure. Come along with me and experience the life of a Speedy Cat!!
Then and again one time there was a fellow that ran out of gas.
Now that I am blogging the world seems to make sense again. The word of the day is lenitive. "WHO WANTS A CIGAR?!?!!"
Yes, the picture of the day is to the right. I call it Spring Chicken .... which I am not, but like to say it.
*** Here is my list of things I would like you to do. Consider yourself tagged for my "Action Meme". ***
1. Pretend to play the piano using your keyboard (and sing too)
2. Mess your hair up really bad and then go say hi to the person closest to you (distance-wise)
3. Look at your feet.
4. Repeat these words verbatum: "chicky chicka way nay chicka chicka chickery" LOUDER PLEASE!!
5. Pick out a buggar (you know you have one)
6. Call your pal already; are you cold as stone??
7. Comment on this post and tell me how you did. (mandatory)
8. Promise to buy a lotto ticket tomorrow
9. Smile really BIG for at least 5 seconds
10. You can copy this if you want, but the meme does not require posting. Another blogging first!! History being made once again at the Speedcat Hollydale Page.

Alien Women Attack Greys Bay Point Lighthouse
Giant Space women from the Zaniphonian Galaxy have been attacking the Hollydale Harbor Lighthouse on Grey's Bay Point. Barney Elvinfingers (the caretaker) has called numerous times to report this to the local PD ... and has not received any help in the matter. As a concerned citizen, I would like to express my deep and 
utter anxiety over this lack of cooperation between the public and authorities.
When the mayor was questioned by the Hollydale Reporter, he gave this statement .... "As there are NO giant women from space, we in county government will not acknowledge any such reports, and wash our hands of this breech in security. If in fact massive ladies fly down in UFOs - I will marry one" end quote
I hope he has a great honeymoon, that's all I can say. Imagine the let down for the bride.
