    Well, I only have 3 points this morning but I was a few yards away from New Mexico costing me 11 points with my original distribution of confidence points.

    Confidence will make or break you in this contest! Unfortunately, I always seem to screw up and be severely penalized. One of these days, I am going to be able to master the confidence points. (I hope :oops: )

    It's not the original cat I think, Stu's been working with the replacement for a couple of years, finally got him to the Big Leagues! :)

    Actually they've all passed now. We had to put down our last one a couple of weeks ago. It was hard. I'm not really a cat person but I took her in as a stray in the middle of winter 17 years ago.

    So I'm just trying to use the system they taught me. It involves a litter box and the sports section. 8)
