#1992 |
1992 was a good year for most although TW lost her Dad that year.
The Kitties Blue chose a good one in #1973. I think that was the year their Mom was born or something. That was also the year George Steinbrenner bought the NY Yankees, the Watergate hearings began, Secretariet won the Triple Crown of horse racing and Roe v. Wade was passed into law. This foto was taken in 2011 when Occupy Wall Street started their NYC occupation which soon spread throughout the country. The peeps and I were following the occupation closely in hopes that something would get accomplished and those criminals who collapsed our economy would get their just desserts. Little Crow, my good Twitter furrend and his Dad who took part in Occupy Denver sent me this bumper sticker that I proudly sat on the table and posed with. We are the 99% who share 1% of this countries’ wealth.

My special furrend Flynn chose #1951. That was the year Alan Freed coined the term rocknroll. the Pill was invented by Luis Mirmontes, direct dial coast-to-coast telephone service began in the US and the first color television broadcast was aired. The 22rd Amendment was ratified in 1951 which limits US presidential terms of office to eight years or two terms.

In this foto I’m coyly showing off my itsy bitsy bikini while daring someone to make a grab for my toys. Those toys just happened to be my favorite toys in the world. A few years later it went missing and TW tried replacing it with a cheaper model which I turned my nose up at. We later found the original and it’s still one of my fave shmousies that I toss around with abandon.
Speaking of toys, our blogging and Twitter furrend Baby Patches’ human is once again in need of our support to keep her business Nip and Bones up and running. I’d hate to see it close it’s virtual doors because it was the first US shop to feature silvervine. I get my peacock feathers exclusively at Nip and Bones and that's where we bought my Skinneeez shmousy in the foto above. From now until July 6th, they’re having a 4th of July Blowout Sale with items discounted up to 60%. Now would be a great time to do early holiday shopping! Or, you can just buy ME something. NOTE: I was not compensated in any way to write this.
What’s your favorite toy?
Interestin historical stuffs today CK!
ReplyDeleteMom Paula spent some green papers at Nip and Bones today and she said something about silvervine.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos (as always) and I really like how you added the historical events with the numbers. Very clever girl you are CK :)
ReplyDeleteWow, you are just filled with trivia today, CK! I loved learning about all the things that happened before I was born.
ReplyDeleteYour post made me giggle! Thank you for the history lesson - I learned a lot!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos and fun facts!!!

ReplyDeleteThanks for trip down memory lane! I have a post about 1997 today - or my kitty Daisy from 1997. I will stop by Nip and Bones today. Thanks for the reminder.
ReplyDelete♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteThose are interesting facts. I can't believe I chose such a great photo with you in your bikini! I think I need to go and cool down!!
ReplyDeleteCK you did a lot research for this and we think you hit it out of the park! Great post!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos and I enjoyed reading historic events happened in those years! The #1951 foto is adorable...oh that cute bikini and paw position...I'm squeeing here :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for picking our number, I saw it and thought cool, the year we got married then I saw 15andmeowing :)
ReplyDeleteI am sorry TW lost her Dad that year. I love all these photos and it is nice to see your bikini , I can see why you don't need Phoebe's bikini. Have a nice 4th!
What a great batch-o-fotos of you! Good choices.......
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sammy
We love all these photos. You look quite cute in all of them, C.K. Mom wants to give TW a big kiss and hugs for thinking she was born in 1973. We actually picked the year she and Dad got married just like Mom Ellen at 15&Meowing did. Have a great holiday weekend and stay safe.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to tie your photos into historical facts! My faves are Socks winning the Presidency (not his owner...HA!) and Secretariats's Triple Crown :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you choose to write about yourself instead of politics. You are way more important than those old guys in suits! You are far more stunning too. Maybe our next president will have a cat. That would be pawsome. Cats make good cabinet members and consultants too. Socks was great as president (please note that I didn't say Bill Clinton).

ReplyDeleteMost EXCELLENT shots! Mes glad that Kitties Blue corrected about 1973! Mommy was feeling really old as that is the year she married my human brother's Daddy!

Happy 4th of July!
Those are all great photos of you...you are adorable with your itsy bitsy bikini!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite toy's my human - shame she gets mad at me when I bat her with a paw! And I definitely recommend the Silvervine from Nip & Bones - have never met a kitty yet who's tried that stuff & hasn't loved it :-)
ReplyDeleteOhhhh...you showed off your bikini...I keep mine hidden most of the time too. Can't let the humans see too much of a good thing
ReplyDeleteyou're always so photogenic no matter what the occasion! ~RascalandRocco
