Title: Where's Frank?
Post by: thundley4 on April 22, 2010, 12:47:00 PM
He hasn't been on since the 18th. It's unusual for him not to post something if he's going to be away for awhile.

Post by: The Village Idiot on April 22, 2010, 12:49:05 PM
I think he just posted something in the book forum.

Flame hadn't posted since the 9th until yesterday she was on the Ree crash thread.

Last time I heard from him, he mentioned that he had to file dozens of "extensions" for his tax clients on April 15th.......I suspect that he is getting caught up with the end of the tax season......

I've been asking this question for days.

I'm starting to get worried a little. A bit. Maybe the cats have turned and are holding him prisoner?

Flame seems to have posted once or twice since April 9. Lurking?

I think the cats could last a few weeks feasting on him before they start impersonating him on the board to lure one of us over as a new food source.  :evillaugh:

For your information, at coach's request. No idea what it means, beyond what he says:

Quote
From franksolich  04/26/2010 Am I okay?  Sort of, but not managing a personal crisis very well—I am so-o-o-o-o-o tired, worn out, dragged out.  On top of that, I’m dealing with an “issue” of which I am not a part, although I was the person who knew it would be an issue long before anybody else did.  I haven’t been to conservativecave for eight days—when the personal crisis evolved—because if I go there, I’m there for hours and hours and hours, and it’s not good to do that when one should rather more contemplate things.  So—personal crisis + work crisis.  You may pass this on to those at conservativecave, assuring them I will be back.  Of course I’ll be back.  When real life gets more equilibrium.

No surprise when I tell you that no matter which cat I answered for in your quiz (thanks for that find, btw), there was an overwhelming chance he or she was plotting against me.  One thing the quiz didn't mention, or I missed somehow, was how often does kitty lick you?  I think some of mine have been surreptitiously taste testing me lately. :p

It is.....also turning their rear to you and doing the quivering thing with the tail. Since you have more than one, you know how they sniff each other's tushie, and apparently cats only do that with another cat that they are familiar with. When they come up to you (like when you are sitting or laying down) and stick their tush towards your face....it's cause they want you to know where they have been. (like you don't already know  :whatever: )

I love that cats and dogs are so uninhibited.  They ALL go around sniffing each others' butts.  The elevator butt of a cat, so I've read, is their signal that you are, unworthy human though you are, are good enough to scratch their back.

It's quite a sight to watch one of my kitties constantly chewing on the toes and tail of the four dogs.  Wouldn't believe it  someone told me, but it's true, he is fearless!
