If so I strongly suggest sitting them up in front of a computer and making them watch your purple hippo spanker over there...

That's enough to make anyone's ears curl under!



Don't kill me but I have to agree the ice dive kittly is cute as well. At least it actually looks like a cat... those other guys are all fluffballs with eyes..

And yes, I am a cat lover..

Wow....I've been away from the office all morning doing an off-site inventory...you guys are amazing!
We were well back this morning, now we're back on top by 25 votes. Cool!

I'm with Alain on this....we must go for the jugular and put this away.

Craig, I'm with you...I like Maine Coons too, but I also like that Thunderpaws kitty...he's cute.

Don Williams, cat person.

Well....animal person.

Woof!

Jimmy was up by 50 points yesterday, but the Japanese folks (who must have considerable resources) have staged a rally and are now only 7 behind Jimmy. Let's make another effort today! Reset those IP's and vote!
Go Jimmy! We have only 5 days to pull out and front and stay there for good!

I'm told that dial-up connections give you a different ip address each time you dial up. Between that and deleting temporary internet files, you might be able to vote more than once.

I'll try it from home some more as well. I have dial-up and now that you guys mention it, I was able to vote twice...

   Don, have no worries, I'll stay up all night to vote if I have to!   

   I've managed to log on another 4 votes from work by moving around on different computers.... `

   Jimmy's up by about 30 votes now!!!

   CRUSH THEM!!!! Alain Desforges38869.7089236111

Don, please let us know when this contest ends. It may be wise to start planning for some strategic last-minute vote sniping!

Let them think they're in the clear with a small lead, then hit 'em hard 5 minutes before the voting closes. buddy lee38870.0999421296

Jimmy is now getting killed by those Japanese Maine Coon folks....



Let's try to rally today and this weekend.

Contest ends midnight on June 5th.

There's still time, but we're down almost 50 again.

he was down by around 80 votes this afternoon....apparently our networking is paying off today.
   I have to admit...this is more fun than it should be.

I just posted 85 Votes for Jimmy to put him 100 ahead, Guess they must be wondering how he got so popular in the UK

Russell! You ROCK ! ! !

Now if only we could keep up the torrid pace of this afternoon. We have until midnight Monday (I think) to get more votes in.

In case I haven't said it recently..."Thanks Everyone" for helping out the fuzzbucket Jimmy.

Now if I could just get guys like Matt Gage, who swear they will never vote for a cat for something, to actually vote, that could put us over the top to stay.

Come on Matt.....you can do it....
