That 19K bet was very risky and uber is a limousine company, not a brand of designer jeans. Elise should have just bet zero. The ladies were too fast for Stephen to catch up. By the way VJ, were you into Levi Strauss jeans back in the old days or did you have other brands like seven for all man kind?
Lou, I can’t say I have any brand loyalty or preferences when it comes to jeans. All that matters to me is if they fit right.
Seems that Boris may be a way more popular name for a cat than one would think. In the chat, Elise mentioned her black cat, Miss Boris Karloff. We have a Russian blue cat named Boris, and on Facebook, we saw a lady post a picture of her two Russian blues – Boris and Natasha. We have a black cat, too, but his name is Felix.

I thought of your Boris kitty when Elise mentioned Miss Boris Karloff. I mistakenly thought he was your black cat. Boris and Natasha are great names for the two Russian blues that you saw posted on Facebook.
yeah, Rhonda, Boris and Natasha seem like natural picks for a pair of Russian blues. The weird thing was that lady’s Boris cat looked just like ours. (Technically, the 3 cats we have are my daughter’s and she got them in this order: Felix, Roscoe and Boris)
