what do Entrecarders hate?

I AM SO SICK OF SEEING THIS AD. It is *almost* as bad as that “Flat Belly” ad that ran a few weeks ago.

A Fiddle in Your Ear

Still hunting for that perfect Mother’s Day gift? I haven’t even bought CARDS, for pete’s sake, ugh! Well, here’s a little bug in your ear: Photofiddle.com. Heard of them?

I Know, I Know! Enough Of the Cat Posts!

Maybe after this one.
MAYBE.
I don’t know what it is— I have this SERIOUS case of cat-love-itis right now!! I saw this video of a hungry kitten found off the street in India. If this doesn’t break your heart into little bits, I don’t know what will! SO many street cats have sicknesses and [...]
