MillamƬ hides a secret: when no one looks at her, she becomes a superhero.
Bagcat [not a bad cat] °TM
With her three amazing superpowers:
Bag Teleport : the unusual power to teleport herself anywhere without anyone noticing. Most of the time inside a bag.
BagIgnore There is no food or game that will attract attention when she is in her armour of paper. Die in peace, you will be pleasantly ignored
Sacred death blow of the Killer Bag : Anything around the bag is an enemy and so it will be finished by the bag itself. If you don't believe in this, try with your fingers
In the last batch of TC Kroger photos, I showed aisle 21 in the process of being rebuilt with all-new shelving. Here in another early March 2018 photo, we see the "happy kitty" shelving one aisle over in it's completed state, although it looks like a bad cat or two might have gotten into the chow and left some bags of it in the floor!

Can anyone tell me why there's a human head with blue hair at the end of a snake's body in a pinball machine that's nominally about bad cats? Could it be a self-portrait of game artist Python Anghelo?
LunaMoog has discovered the christmas decorations, and most of them are now on the floor in pieces! Bad cat! lol

Copyrighted B.Kliban - found page clip circa 1980s. I've been saving this shot for Christmas post. A little early but it's OK.
Christmas is only 5 days away... I'll be taking a well deserved break from work for the whole Christmas week. Hoping I'll have the chance to get out and go shopping in spite of horrendous traffic everywhere. It took me an hour and a half just to get across town last week.
Online shopping is looking to be more attractive alternative for an easy way out for shopping at the malls.
That's no yellow rug, my friends. No wonder Edsel's snickering as such! Bad cat! Shoulda left him out. Looks real!
MusƩe de la vie Romantique. Rue Chaptal. Paris.
It was a very cold clear fall night.
I had a terrible dream the other night. Billy Name and Brigid were
playing under my stair case on the second floor about two o'clock
in the morning. I woke up because Amos and Archie had started barking.
That made me very angry because I wasn't feeling well and I told them.
I was very cross the real me, that they just better remember what
happened to Sam the Bad Cat that was left at home and got sick and went pussy heaven.
It was a very cold clear fall night. Some snowfalkes were falling,
gee it was so beautiful, and so I went to get my camera to take some
pictures. And then I was taking the pictures but the exposure thing
wasn't right and I was going to call Fred or Gerry to find out how
to get it set but oh it was late and then I remembered they were still
probably at dinner and anyway I felt really bad and didn't want to
talk to anybody anyway but the snowflakes were so beautiful and real
looking and I really wanted to hold them. And that's when I heard
the voices from down the hall near the stairs. So I got a flashlight
and I was scared and I went out into the hallway. There's been all
kinds of troubles lately in the neighborhood and someone's got to
bring home the bacon and anyway there were Brigid and Billy playing.
And under the stair case was a little meadow sort of like the park at
23rd street where all the young kids go and play frisbee, gee that
must be fun, maybe we should do an article on that in the magazine,
but they'll just tell me I'm stupid and it won't sell, but I'll just
hold my ground this time, I mean it's my magazine isn't it?
So I was thinking that as the snowflakes fell and I heard those
voices having so much fun. Gee it would be so great to have some
fun. So I called Billy, but either he didn't hear me or he didn't
want to answer which was so strange because even if I don't like
reunions I've always loved Billy. I'm so gald he's working I mean
it's different than Ondine. He keeps touring with those movies and
he doesn't even pay us and the film, I mean the film's just going
to disintegrate and then what. I mean he's so normal off of drugs.
I just don't get it.
And then I saw John Cale. And he's been looking really great. He's
been coming by the office to exercise with me. Ronnie said I have
a muscle but he's been really mean since he went to AA. I mean what
does it mean when you give up drinking and then you're still so mean.
He says I'm being lazy but I'm not, I'm just can't find any ideas.
I mean I'm just not, let's face it, going to get any ideas up at the
office. And seeing John made me think of the Velvets and I had been
thinking about them when I was on St. Marks Place going to that
new gallery those sweet new kids have opened, but the thought I
was old, and then I saw the old Dom, the old club where we did our
first shows. It was so great. And I don't understand about that
Velvet's first album. I mean I did the cover and I was the producer
and I always see it repacaged and I've never gotten a penny from it.
How could that be. I should call Henry, but it was good seeing John,
I did a cover for him, but I did in black and white and he change
it to color. It would have been worth more if he'd left it my way
but you can never tell any body anything, I've leaned that.
I treid calling again to Billy and John but they wouldn't recognize
me it was like I wasn't there. Why won't they let me in. And then
I saw Lou I'm so mad at him. Lou Reed got married and didn't invite me.
I mean is it because he thought I'd bring too many people. I don't
get it. he could have at least called. I mean he's doing so great.
Why doesn't he call me? I saw him at the MTV show and he was one row
away and he didn't even say hello. I don't get it. You know I hate Lou
I really do. He won't even hire us for his videos. And I was proud of him.
I was so scared today. There was blood leaking thought my shirt
from those old scars from being shot. And the corset I wear to keep
my insides in was hurting. And I did three sets of fifteen pushups and
four sets of ten situps. But then my insides hurt and I saw drops of
blood on my shirt and I remember the doctors saying I was dead. And
then later they had to take blood out of my hand 'couse they ran out
or veins but then all this thinking was making me an old grouch and
you can't do anything anyway so if they wouldn't let me play with
them in my own dream I was just going to have to make another and
another and another. Gee wouldn't it be funny if I died in this dream
before I could make another one up.
And Nobody Called.
Lou Reed - John Cale : "A Dream" (From "Songs for Drella*" )
*Drella was the nickname of Andy Warhol
Our little family is getting settled and enjoying finding new comfortable spots in the house. We still have so much more to do when it comes to moving things from the storage building, unpacking, and sorting/organizing, but everyone is finding their routines. We love them so much.
It's not every day I post photos of our cats. But as I'm playing with the 365 project on Instagram, and I've posted all three over there - I thought I would make one montage and put it here too. All on the carpet of my wife's office - with two of the three soaking up the heat while the third - well she rarely sits still long enough to soak up the heat.
(L-R) It's Esne, the Duchess of Fluff; Tyba, short for Tyra Banks - the SuperModel, and Boo - aka Bamboozala - the kitten/troublemaker/largest asshole of the group. And yet they're strangely good to have around.
So Hazel has been dying to go outside. She is an indoor cat, I THINK. But ever since I got her I have seen her always staring out the window longingly. So the other day I bought a collar so that I could let her roam around outside without running away.
Nope. This cat SEEMED scared. All she would do was curl up in a fetal position and refuse to move. So much for wanting to go outside so bad? So I would just hang on to the retractable leash while she layed down helpless looking, and not running around like I thought she would.
Well, I wanted to take some pictures today, and thought the leash looked kinda ugly....and I also thought she wouldn't take off as she wouldn't move this whole time. So I unhooked it. SHE TOOK OFF. Like a wild banshee, as my nanny would call it. Hazel was NOT scared of the outdoors, she was just waiting for the moment to escape without the leash! That little smarty pants cat. Well, she took off for under the porch. Quickly, I grabbed her. It was hard to rip her off from the porch, as she was clinging onto it and did not want to be caught.
Well, too bad for Hazel. I put her back in this niceee little garden bush patch for some niceee picture time :)
And boy, was she PISSED. hahaha
Jack is an absolute sweetheart and I love him to death. But I have a feeling that people just don't understand when I say hes a very bad cat. I also don't think people really know what I mean when I say that I have to crack the blinds for Jack. No seriously, I HAVE to -- he doesn't give me a choice.
HANNA BARBERA STUDIOS
GODZILLA Original Animation TELEVISION SERIES 1978
Type: AWESOME Original Production CONCEPT DRAWING of GODZOOKY from the 1970s HANNA BARBERA Animated TELEVISION SERIES
Drawing by Animator, TONY SGROI.
This is one of the original Hand Painted Production CONCEPT DRAWINGS, used to design the charactersthat appeared under the camera during
the production filming of the original Television series.
Size: 12 field 12.5 x 10.5
Type: . Vintage CONCEPT DRAWING
Condition: EXCELLENT
Featuring GODZOOKY
Date 1978
NOTES:
Godzilla is a 30-minute animated series co-produced between Hanna-Barbera Productions and Toho in 1978 and aired on NBC in the US and TV Tokyo in Japan.
In Japan the series was called "Godzilla: Voyage Chronicles" (ć“ćøć©ļ¼čŖęµ·ćÆćććÆć«). The series is an animated adaptation of the Japanese Godzilla films produced by Toho. The series continued to air until 1981, for a time airing in its own half-hour timeslot until its cancellation.
The series follows the adventures of a team of scientists on the research vessel called the Calico, which is headed by Captain Carl Majors. The rest of the crew include Dr. Quinn Darien, a female scientist; Broch, her assistant and Carl's first mate; and her teenage nephew Pete. Also along for the ride is Godzooky, the nephew of Godzilla and Pete's best friend who has a light-hearted role in the show. Godzooky can fly using the small wings under his arms, though his uncle Godzilla is unable to fly. Whenever he tries to breathe fire, he just coughs up smoke and he never seems to have the ability to shoot laser beams from his eyes. He breathed fire once in the episode, The Beast of Storm Island. Pete & Godzooky's relationship is very similar to Pete & Elliot from the Walt Disney classic, Pete's Dragon. Godzooky is voiced by Don Messick.
The group often call upon Godzilla by using a special communicator when in peril, such as attacks by other giant monsters. If the communicator is not present, or lost, Godzooky uses a special "howl" to summon him. Godzilla's size in the animated series shifts radically, sometimes within a single episode or even one scene. For instance, Godzilla's claw can wrap around a large ship, and only minutes later the team of scientists fit rather neatly on Godzilla's palm. In addition, Godzilla's trademark atomic breath is altered so he breathes simple fire. He can also shoot laser beams from his eyes much like Superman's heat vision.
Hanna-Barbera were unable to use Godzilla's trademark roar so they cast Ted Cassidy to voice the character, similar to his role in the live-action series The Incredible Hulk. In Japan, Godzilla's trademark roar was added and replaced the Ted Cassidy sound effects that Hanna-Barbera used.
The basic formula of a scientific team and research vessel in league with Godzilla investigating strange phenomena was revived in another cartoon, Godzilla: The Series, which is the animated sequel to the 1998 American Godzilla film.
Each episode would include a brief exposition on a scientific instrument or phenomena, thus providing an educational segment for the show.
Godzilla originally aired in these following formats on NBC:
The Godzilla Power Hour (September 8, 1978 - October 28, 1978)
The Godzilla Super 90 (November 4, 1978 - September 1, 1979)
Godzilla (September 8, 1979 - October 13, 1979)
The Godzilla/Globetrotters Adventure Hour (October 20, 1979 - September 20, 1980)
The Godzilla/Dynomutt Hour (September 27, 1980 - November 15, 1980)
The Godzilla/Hong Kong Phooey Hour (November 22, 1980 - May 16, 1981)
Godzilla (May 23, 1981 - September 5, 1981)
The Godzilla Power Hour consisted of half-hour episodes of Godzilla and Jana of the Jungle (not to be confused with the similarly-named Marvel Comics character Jann of the Jungle). A total of 13 original episodes were produced in 1978, with the first eight airing as part of The Godzilla Power Hour. In November 1978, the show was expanded to 90 minutes with the addition of Jonny Quest reruns and retitled The Godzilla Super 90.
For the second season beginning in September 1979, the show was separated from its package programs and aired in its own half-hour timeslot as simply Godzilla. A month later, new episodes of Godzilla and The Super Globetrotters were packaged together as The Godzilla/Globetrotters Adventure Hour which ran until September 1980.
On September 27, 1980, after twenty-six half-hour episodes, the show went into reruns and Godzilla was once again teamed up with other Hanna-Barbera characters: The Godzilla/Dynomutt Hour ran until November 1980, followed by The Godzilla/Hong Kong Phooey Hour which ran until May 16, 1981. On May 23, the show returned to the half-hour format as Godzilla and the last regular showing aired on September 5, 1981. Throughout the 1980s until the late-1990s, the series rested in limbo (with the exception of a limited videocassette release of two episodes). Since 1996, it has been rebroadcast on TNT, Cartoon Network and Boomerang.

Cats in the wild must be on the alert in order to survive. When your domestic cat sleeps, his finely tuned senses are still active and ready to spring into action. Watch your cat while he's napping. His ears rotate as he stays in touch with his environment, and if he hears a noise or senses that someone is approaching, he will open his eyes to assess the situation before falling back to sleep. If you try to wake a sleeping cat, he can transform from deeply sleeping cat to one that's fully alert in a matter of seconds ā and then back again

She's precious to me, but she's another bad cat! I only have two bad cats! Here she is with her hot pink piddle pants on...she hates them!

To keep with the creepy theme of October I bring you yet another tortured shot of the almost always willing Joyce. "I want you to put on thick dark makeup and then I'm going to get you soaking wet in the living room" I got no objection and soon she was off caking the eye liner on and I was taking advantage of the vaulted 18 foot ceilings in the living room. I boomed the beauty dish up over 10 feet high to simulate a sliver of light just out of reach. Perhaps she's a captive in a psycho killers home. She's been put into a hole only to be removed when she's starved just to the point of death. The killer will then force feed her until she dies from a ruptured stomach. Sick⦠I know!
This shot really didn't take much at all. The single boomed beauty dish did most of the work. I purposely under exposed the shot by almost 2 full stops just to give it that dark creepy feel. I wanted her to be dripping with water and what better way to do that then to spray her like a bad cat with the spray bottle. She accused me of "having too much fun" while spraying her. I won't deny that I enjoyed it! To show her that I was serious, I relinquished my position as "getter wetter" and left it up to her to get her self wet. She wasn't sure how to do it at first but soon figured it out and was well on her way.
A few dozen shots and I was happy. post work was no more then 10 minutes. Minor touch ups were all that was needed.
So today was my last day of the Juice diet. I am free to eat anything I want. Most people are betting I'll be sick for a day. I say bring on the giant vat of chilly I made for the family today! I made damn sure there was going to be left overs. Word has it that this is my best pot of chill to date! I'm excited!!!!!
This friday I've been hired to do stylized 80's themed prom portraits for Lifetime Fitness in Boca Raton. They are having their annual member Halloween party. Should be a great night filed with fantastic 80's cliches!

PERSONAL FUN FACT written by my sister: Neither Shelly nor I remember seeing this set in stores and, surely, if we had, we'd have begged Dad to buy it for us! I don't think it was in our area much, or I'm sure we'd clearly remember it. However, in the early 2010s, this set became completely iconic to me. First, we found all three sleeping bags, Barbie's outfit, and Stacie's outfit in a bag of clothes in 2012. The bag of clothes was awesome--really great stuff--but had a bad cat pee smell (that, thankfully, was fixable). A year later, at the beginning of the 2013 flea market season, we found the African American version of Barbie in a lot. She was SO pretty that we kept her despite a hair cut. She's been a favorite face of mine to ogle and use for pictures since we got her. Not long after that, we found the Caucasian variation of Kelly in a bag at the flea market. Having secured fragments in three different lots in close succession, I figured this set HAD to be pretty popular, despite not being able to remember seeing it in stores. However, we didn't have luck after that and over a decade went by. I never forgot wanting it--because it's awesome--but it seemed like an impossible dream. However, toward the end of the 2025 flea market season, a seller was setting up doll items, mostly Kelly dolls. The Kelly dolls were five for twenty dollars. The seller brought other stuff one week too--including a boxed Let's Camp! Gift Set! At first, we didn't buy it--the Kelly dolls were just too good a deal and this was marked at thirty. However, she wound up letting us have it for a mere twenty--a bargain--the last week she set up! Shelly ran off to the ATM. (It was an awesome week!) I couldn't believe how pretty Barbie was when I was unboxing this set. And Stacie is lovely too! All the girls for the Let's Camp! set are gorgeous. The AA Barbie is so beautiful that we kept ours despite her hair cut, the blonde Barbie so beautiful that I had eyes only for her upon liberating the trio, the Kelly she came with is titian, which is unique...and this Stacie is REALLY special and striking. I LOVE her. These girls were worth the long wait! A dream come true!
Cecile.. wearing my sister's gryffendor robe.. omg! Radar just scratched me! Bad cat!
Anyway.. I did put Cecile in Slytherin.. I have NO idea why.. But now I think she'd be better off in Hufflepuff or Gryffindor. Because Slytherin has mainly bad wizards in it. Now all my dolls are in Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, or Gryffendor. What house would you put your dolls in?
Anyway.. have a happy new year!
P.S I have WAY to many Cecile photos right now. ;)
