I knew I should've camped out at the lake. I came home last night after playing out at Table Mesa with XROCK and AZTEC X, went to bed early, set the alarm for 4 A.M. Everything was in place. Truck was loaded. DAMN CATS start playing in the middle of the night and manage to unplug the alarm clock! I don't wake up until 10 A.M.! Knowing that I'm an hour from the lake doesn't seem worth it to get there for the end of the race. Next time I'm staying at XROCK's. Sorry I missed it.

Sure it was the cats and not Tracey?

There is an old saying that "Cats are intended to teach us that not everything in nature has a function."

We have been proven wrong...

hey sorry to jump in on your board but spooky1 i'm going to use that cat thing for next time i'm late for work. now all i need is a cat...

We have 5 of them. I can ship you one if you want.

Sure blame it on the CATS as if they are the problem Ya that is why I didn't make it either it was the ummmm CATS. It had nothing to do with the fact that I was wheeling, drinking and camping excessively all week, and I could not get out of bed.

I have had TOOOOOO many cats and know their tricks too well. (two (2) available for your entertainment (when the golden retriever is done playing with them :rolleyes: ))

Solution #1:

Costco Timex Alarm Clock: $19.99. Stereo radio/buzzer and "operating" BATTERY BACKUP- works without AC at all!

Solution #2:

Taxidermy as a hobby :

"The art or operation of preparing, stuffing, and mounting the skins of animals for exhibition in a lifelike state."

Yeah, you could mount one in the pose of unplugging an alarm clock.
