That's one of the things I love about cats too. I'm a little too busy and unreliable to be a proper companion for a dog, dogs really craves attention. But cats tolerate me with amused affection and a touch of disdain for my inattention. I appreciate that in an animal associate. ;-}

Rocketry, chemistry, hunting fish - I'm impressed. I've done them all. Well, bowfishing, not spearfishing. One of the things on my to do list is spearfishing.

I used to love it, did it fairly often for 10 years. I was the only woman in HI I knew that did...it was definitely a male sport. I used a hawaiian sling, could go down about 15 - 20' max due to ears, and could hold my breath over 2 minutes easily. Have dove all over Oahu, some on the Island of Hawaii and Molokai too. I never saw a shark the entire time I dove either, good thing, I'd of probably walked on water getting out of their way, lol.
