Our resident smarty-cat has written an essay on BAD BEHAVIOR: In recent months I have had my attention pulled, without my consent mind you, to certain acts of debauchery that are becoming more and more the ‘norm’ of our society. I’ve had enough. ENOUGH. First it was the spectacle that was “SNOOKI“, a reality starlet on some mindless MTV show, and most recently Miley Cyrus and her “twerking” incident on the VMA awards. (You’Il notice I refuse to provide a link […]

A “Somewhat Poetic Musing” in honor of Friday the 13th by Moiré If I were a superstitious cat… I’d hide my head under the covers on this Friday the 13th. But instead I prance proudly and nobly around my kingdom. If I were a superstitious cat… I’d make sure to avoid every crack in case it would break my mother’s back. But instead I put my paws where I please with the confidence that mother will remain well. If I were a […]

Clarinda asks: Moire, they say that it is the end of the PC era. Do you agree?” Moiré’s answer: Hello Clarinda, and thank you for your question.

As far as this being the end of the age of personal computing there have been some recent articles and, perhaps, even a study or […]

Colleen asks: Moire, I’ve been following you on Twitter and I’m not that excited about what you’ve been saying. Do you make your own tweets or does someone write them for you?” Moire’s answer: Colleen, I have failed you! Indeed, I’ve failed the team here at MPA and all of my beloved readers. I have been farming out the job writing my own tweets and you’ve noticed. No doubt I imagine you’ve noticed because they lack a certain pussycat sass; the kind […]

As you, dear reader, are sure to remember from one of my July articles I am a diehard fan of fairs and festivals. I still reflect fondly on my frolic to the Davis County Fair and my fondness of corn dogs. (Speaking of that, it is wise not to write so publicly about a food obsession in case one’s doctor might be reading. I’ve been on a solid diet of nothing but fish for four weeks now. Well, four weeks […]
