 What would you do if you thought no one was looking;  Wednesday...

 
 
 

So, we all do things in private that we wouldn't do otherwise right? For example once in a great while just for the fun of it...I poop in the bathtub. Don't judge me! Like I said we ALL do stuff...
What do you do when you think no one is looking? Now check out what the commander in chief does!; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRoy2OxbtuI

Come on...go ahead and take a look at the video...if you do I won't even mention that there are those parties ( who shall remain nameless ) that are about to shut down the government once again and close down the Department Of Homeland Security along with it...yep, two days after receiving threats to things like The Mall of America! Seem like a good time to defund DHS right? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/02/22/jeh-johnson-congress-dhs_n_6731154.html



Have a wonderful Wednesday...

It's the weekend and it's time for Noodle's Sticky Paws and Hairballs vs. Fuzzy Hugs and Kitty Kisses...in an edition we like to call "show me the money"...


Yes children, the games have begun and by that we mean campaigning for 2016...

So, we'd  like to start out with a little song that we think segues nicely into all that political gobbledygook! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkRIbUT6u7Q

First up some good news and a great big fuzzy hug...
we are going local this week with a Seattle high school student named Nick Rubin for creating Greenhouse http://allaregreen.us/  Ever wondered who is getting how much and who they are getting it from? Check out Nicks site...

Also a big old kitty kiss to efforts by the Democrats to un gerrymander a lot of the rigged districting put in place by mostly Republicans that have totally skewed the electoral process. Check out  Advantage 2020; http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/house-races/233181-dems-launch-super-pac-to-fight-for-redistricting-edge

Next we couldn't give a full blown kitty kiss to this one but we will bestow a small smooch to Walmart  for raising their minimum wage for many of their workers...it's a good start although we think it most likely came about due to protests and pressure from the media etc. Still, baby steps...

and...here come the sticky paws!

A big expensive sticky paw to Jeb Bush who is busy raising buckets of money nice and early in his campaign ...

But even with buckets of cash, Jeb hasn't got a clue it seems as to what he would do about foreign policy; http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/02/jebs-foreign-policy-problem/385648/


And here is a sticky paw (not his first) for former governor Rudy Giuliani...we are giving him the honor of being on our list of people who should never speak in public. Congratulations Mr. Giuliani you are now on the list along with the likes of Sarah Palin and Donald Trump. You're welcome! http://www.politico.com/story/2015/02/rudy-giuliani-president-obama-doesnt-love-america-115309.html

And last but certainly not least we leave you with something to make you smile. If you missed the 40th anniversary show celebrating Saturday Night Live, then you missed this...  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ojx_5n0VXZU



Have a great weekend!

                                It's Wordless Wednesday...

Have a great Wednesday and watch out for cameras!

              Okay...it's the weekend and you know what that means! It's time for Noodle's sticky paws and hairballs vs. kitty kisses and fuzzy hugs...  

  
 
First up we want to give a wave of our paw and send a big kitty kiss in memory of a great journalist; Bob Simons, his integrity and passion will be missed; http://www.cbsnews.com/videos/remembering-bob-simons-legendary-career-at-cbs-news/
 
We also want to send many big Noodle hugs to the friends and families of the three students who were killed in Chapel Hill, North Carolina; http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/12/us/muslim-student-shootings-north-carolina.html?_r=0 


 
Next we turn to Jeb Bush. You guessed it, Ol' Jeb gets a great big sticky paw and probably a few law suits too!
Seems that Jeb decided to market himself as the e-candidate running for president in 2016. Yep,  Jeb fancies himself tech-savvy. So, he began by hiring a tech guy whose e-mails and tweets were loaded with slanderous and vile comments about women and people of color...way to go Jeb!
As if that weren't bad enough...his team then posted personal information about his constituents! You know like medical records and social security numbers and bank account numbers! And when he was questioned about it his reply was something to the effect of "ooopsie!"Isn't that what his brother said about Iraq?! http://thehill.com/policy/cybersecurity/232324-jeb-bush-email-dump-includes-social-security-numbers


Hairballs and sticky paws to not vaccinating your children! That's it! End of story! When you don't you not only put your children at risk but all the other children they may come in contact with who are not old enough to have been vaccinated yet...and the children they come in contact with and the children they come in contact with and so on and so on...that's how you create an epidemic. The science is there, vaccines are safe for 99+% of all children. Your child has more of a chance of being killed in a terrorist attack AND being struck by lightning at the same time as he or she does of having any significant adverse reaction to vaccines; http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-living/infant-and-toddler-health/in-depth/vaccines/art-20048334

Next up a great big hairball to John Boehner for even bringing up the specter of another Government shut down! http://www.aol.com/article/2015/02/12/boehner-cant-rule-out-homeland-security-department-shutdown/21142184/  When will they ever learn?

                
We just don't know whether to give this a sticky paw or a kitty kiss! But, if you think your human is just phoning it in with the treats and toys you get, take a look at this stuff!

And lastly, a big kitty kiss to the amazing voice of Annie Lennox...

No Sticky Paws or Hairballs This Weekend! Just Kitty Kisses and Fuzzy Hugs...



Okay, if you are a regular reader of ours you've probably noticed that a lot of our posts, although written to be as delightful as possible, tend to contain how shall I say this...subject matter that can be a little on the heavy side. This tends to result in a lot more sticky paws than kitty kisses.
Well, today we are taking a break from heavy and have put together a lighter ( non fattening ) version of our usual weekend post. Get ready to feel good!

A big kitty kiss to lost things being found. If you are one of the millions of To Kill A Mockingbird fans, then you will love that there will soon be a sequel; http://www.theguardian.com/books/2015/feb/05/harper-lee-to-kill-a-mockingbird-sequel-go-set-a-watchman

Next, a big fuzzy hug to Jimmy Fallon and the cast of Saved By The Bell; http://on.aol.com/video/jimmy-fallon-reunites-saved-by-the-bell-cast-518636791?cps=gravity_1967_-1363417187315927276

A big kitty kiss to puppy hugs!; http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/10/14/news-anchors-puppy-hugs-tonight-show_n_5983968.html?utm_hp_ref=funny

A big chocolaty kitty kiss to Nutella! For years the human would go on and on about this great spread she would devour while on her travels overseas! She would bring home jars of Nutella in her checked baggage long before it was ever heard of here in the states. Now of course you can find it in almost every grocery store sitting right next to the peanut butter...Check out these recipes we found for two really delightful Nutella treats; For possibly the best brownie ever! http://diethood.com/2-ingredient-nutella-brownies/ and for a frozen ice cream shake try; http://www.howsweeteats.com/2015/02/nutella-oatmeal-cookie-shake/


A big fuzzy hug to the Mayor of Sun Prairie, Wisconsin for taking a bite on the ear for Groundhog day! Usually it's either see shadow or don't see shadow...but this year look what happened; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZdIYAHtYNE


And last but not least, MUSIC! I have to be honest, I'm not a big Frank Sinatra fan...but this song can only make you feel empowered and make you smile...; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaPTweZ2_fI



I told you...all kitty kisses and fuzzy hugs!

Have a great weekend full of hugs and kisses...
