I can always count on you Dave.

Melancholy shivers.

Oh, how true! All memories from 1967 have 💥 my brain. Especially 🎶 Whiter Shade of Pale instantly did it. I have never seen an illustration of a lean cat.

Thank you Dave, I wonder about something else. I don't believe I'll encounter it with MB, but I do with craft stores and other businesses that rely on seasonal products. What mechanism starts the clock all over again to re-activate their email list, despite multiple previous Opt out requests? A simple log in? A download of their app? Both? I'm curious if a log in triggers it after a certain amount of time. Possibly an ongoing mystery of life, or proprietary information.

T S Eliot (Thomas Stearns) wrote Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats in 1939 when he was 51 years old. This slim volume is a lighthearted look at feline behavior and psychology~also the basis of the Broadway show, CATS. While still a teenager in the late 60's, I discovered this book and the poem; the name Jennyanydots has been buried deep in memory, until last week. My library displayed it promoting poetry. Old Possum is Ezra Pound's name for Eliot during their friendship. If you curbed your curiosity and still don't know about Jennyanydots, she was a Gumbie cat. A Gumbie cat just "sits." Eliot was fond of creating stories about cat names and their qualities. Here's the poem: The Old Gumbie Cat I have a Gumbie Cat in mind, her name is Jennyanydots; her coat is of the tabby kind, with tiger stripes and leopard spots. All day she sits upon the stair or on the steps or on the mat: She sits and sits and sits and sits-and that's what makes her a Gumbie Cat! But when the day's hustle and bustle is done, Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly begun. And when all the family's in bed and asleep, She slips down the stairs to the basement to creep. She is deeply concerned about the ways of the mice- Their behaviour's not good and their manners not nice; So when she has got them lined up on the matting, She teaches them music crocheting and tatting. I have a Gumbie Cat in mind, her name is Jennyanydots; Her equal would be hard to find, she likes the warm and sunny spots. All day she sits behind the hearth or in the sun or on my hat: She sits and sits and sits and sits-and that's what makes her a Gumbie Cat! But when the day's hustle and bustle is done, Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly begun. As she finds that the mice will not ever keep quiet, She is sure that is due to irregular diet. And believing that nothing is done without trying, She sets straight to work with her baking and frying. She makes them a mouse-cake of bread and dried peas, And a beautiful fry of lean bacon and cheese. I have a Gumbie Cat in mind, her name is Jennyanydots; The curtain cord she likes to wind, and tie it into sailor-knots. She sits on the window sill-or anything that's smooth and flat: She sits and sits and sits and sits-and that's what makes her a Gumbie Cat! But when the day's hustle and bustle is done, Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly begun. She thinks that the cockroaches just need employment To prevent them from idle and wanton destroyment. So she's formed, from the lot of disorderly louts, A troop of well-disciplined helpful boy-scouts, With a purpose in life and good deed to do- And she's even created a Beetles' Tattoo. So for old Gumbie Cats let us now give three cheers- On whom well-ordered households depend, it appears.

I'm very grateful for the feedback, and I appreciate it. 💯

Thanks Porthos, I wasn't wearing glasses and I missed it. Obviously it did not have a red box around it, but yeah, I see it now. That's half the issue. How many times will it take to unsubscribe?

I'm sad to say that I continue to receive noreply@e.malwarebtyes.com newsletter mailings on multiple email accounts tested with the digital footprint. I'm willing to unsubscribe twice. That's my limit. After that, blocking or marking as spam. I was disappointed to receive the first round and now more so to get the second round. I do not recall signing up for a newsletter or seeing any disclaimer that would happen. I'm certain I'm not the only one.

Who is jennyanydots and what does she do? If you have to look it up, no credit. Incomplete or partial answers accepted.

I like the dew dancing on the edges of those leaves.

Last 30 pieces were trial & error.

Hyacinths, daffodils and paper whites are past the zenith. Willows are starting to burst. My reliable, stalwart, hearty pine is starting to stir.
