Betty White’s 93rd Birthday Flash Mob

I don’t know if you have noticed that I VERY RARELY reblog another’s blog post. Thanks to Horty Rex of “It Is What It Is,” I felt impelled to reblog this wonderful Flashdance in honor of Betty White’s 93rd birthday. She has always been a favorite of mine. Thank you, Horty, and thanks also to “Tell Me About It” by Michelle Marie for the original post.

Rest Time: Patches

Sweet, sleeping Patches.

Pussy Cats 3

One of many of Patches' naps. One of many of Patches’ naps.

Hey, little miss one-eye, go back to sleep. Hey, little miss one-eye, go back to sleep.

I only need one eye open to take an impromptu bath. I only need one eye open to take an impromptu bath.

Romeo’s Adrenaline Is Flowing

I love when they become alert. They’re gorgeous. Such personality!

Pussy Cats 3

I know when Romeo has been caught up in the moment.  His ears become alert; his body is ready to take flight.  I could almost see the adrenaline rush.

On alert.  What it that? On alert. What it that?

Must get a better look.  The top of the back of this chair should do it. Must get a better look. The top of the back of this chair should do it.

Romeo, are you going to let me know what got your attention out there? Romeo, are you going to let me know what got your attention out there?  You look disappointed that it’s gone away.

It’s Bath Time

I believe cats spend almost half their day grooming and bathing themselves.  Every time we turn around, they’re busy giving themselves a bath.

Pussy Cats 3

Cats are very clean animals.  One of their greatest pleasures is giving themselves a bath.  Many times, I can hear them purring while they are engrossed in licking every inch of fur.

It's bath time for Patches. It’s bath time for Patches.  She takes great pleasure in her bath time.

Bath time for Rusty.  It's one of those things he does best. Bath time for Rusty. It’s one of those things he does best.

Unfortunately, Romeo wasn’t available for his bath this time.  Maybe I’ll catch him next time.

Robin Williams – “Seize the Day”

I was always a great fan of Robin Williams’; still am. This musical tribute is outstanding. And I am sharing it at a particular remembrance day for me personally. My Bob’s anniversary of his departure from the physical world is today; he was also a devoted fan of Robin Williams. This is for you, Bob, as it is also for me.

Thanks to “A Curious Mind” for making me aware of this beautiful video.

Federal Court awards $139,147 in Attorneys’ Fees Against HHS and NIH in IOM FOIA Case

Jeannette Burmeister was awarded, in summary judgment, attorneys’ fees in her suit against HHS and NIH for failing to follow the government’s FOIA law. Unfortunately, it has cost her quite a blow to her health. Jeannette, you have the heartfelt congratulations and thanks of all M.E. sufferers and their advocates.

Thoughts About M.E.

The U.S. District for the Northern District of California awarded me today–having won my FOIA lawsuit–my entire attorneys’ fees in the amount of $139,147. Judge Vince Chhabria ordered the defendants, HHS and NIH, to pay me these fees. Please see below for a copy of the order.

In the Court’s order, the Judge noted:

Ms. Burmeister is clearly the prevailing party in the litigation. Moreover, as outlined in the order granting Ms. Burmeister’s motion for summary judgment, the government’s conduct throughout its dispute with Ms. Burmeister was unreasonable.  Ms. Burmeister stood to gain nothing financially from her attempt to obtain documents at issue from the government, and she conferred a benefit on the public through her successful effort to obtain a ruling against the government. [emphasis added]

The defendants’ conduct in this matter has been absolutely deplorable. They have fought tooth and nail trying to avoid compliance with federal law and to…

Australian Peter Sharp wants you to get into a social groove on your commute.

Sharp suited up and arranged to meet eight of his friends on a train car in Perth, Australia. When their train pulled into the station, Sharp got on and got ready to get down.

Peter Sharp Starts A Train Dance Party“Hey, guys, I don’t want money,” he announced to his seated friends and the commuters in the car who were still unaware of what was about to take place. “I just want to spread a little bit of happiness. So I’m going to do that today by starting a small dance party.”

Then Sharp started the music, and one by one, his friends — and the amused commuters — joined in on the fun.

“We were totally blown away by how instantly people started to smile, laugh and get involved,” he told The Huffington Post via email. “We had a 60-year-old woman…
