(Cats and batteries not included.)
I wrote this story as a farewell to Triscuit, and now I'm saying farewell to this page. The story is now in the News and Views blog category for Cat Stories. You'll notice that the blog format is Wordpress, but it's also directly tied to the Gin-For's Odditiques main site. You aren't going far, sort of another room. Unfortunately, with the rise of mobile devices, many of my older pages no longer please the Google powers that be. Well, this one was actually quite old and needed major updates anyway since it also linked to pages that I got rid off a long time ago. Oops. Okay, in addition to giving an explanation, I've now added significant text that isn't like other pages, so with luck, this page won't get read as just being a duplicate, another thing that can cause problems with search engines.
I'd do an automatic redirect, but Google gets a bit upset by those. You'll have to go ahead and click HERE to cat-step on over to the new location. Sorry for the trouble, but once you get there, you'll find a lot more information and a more mobile-friendly design. If you like cat stories, you'll find more on my Cat Tale Therapy site. Hope you enjoy it and visit both sites often. In addition to this essay, on the News and Views blog you'll find numerous entries about W. German pottery, Bodo Mans, fat lava, Ruscha, Scheurich, Ceramano, and much more....with even more to come sooner or later. Ummmm, and don't overlook the links to the items we have for sale.
You may notice that we don't have a checkout where you can just click for your goodies without so much as saying hello. Well, we want people to say hello, ask questions, even hope for a better deal. Long ago, I told stories for 7 hours (free refills on coffee), so "impersonal" just isn't my style. Click on one of those "E-mail" buttons. I can't handle as much coffee as I used to, so the stories will be fewer.
These days, Paypal is about the easiest payment method around, but we still take checks, even cash. No Monopoly money, nothing printed up in your basement, no chickens, etc., but otherwise we're fairly flexible. If we can put it in the bank without anyone getting in a tizzy, we'll probably take it.
Please take time to stroll through the site. Sorry we can't offer you a cup of coffee or tea while you're looking, but maybe you can take care of that yourself. Just don't spill it on the keyboard. Hmmm, I seem to be talking about coffee a lot, but talking is one thing I'm still good at. If you run into any questions along the way, there should be an e-mail link on every page, so just click and ask.
Hope you'll enjoy our "sing the body eclectic" approach (with apologies to Walt Whitman). As always, proceeds go to support our creditors, my spouse, our cats, my auction addiction, and the plumbing project that never ends.
