The Famines and the Feasts of Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is one of our nation's most beloved holidays. This is the case for myriad reasons, most of them recognizable. It's an excuse to get together with family and friends to reconnect and to be grateful, at least theoretically, for all of our blessings. It's one of the two holidays each year (along with Christmas) that gets us a second day Read more [...]

Breaking Down Breaking Bad: To’Hajiilee

The episode titled "To'Hajiilee" that aired this past Sunday is arguably the greatest episode of the show's run (so far - we don't yet know what's to come); Vince Gilligan even said that he thought of all the show's cliff-hangers, of which there are many, this would be the one about which the audience would be most distraught. He was not wrong. Read more [...]

Laughing on the Inside

I'm sure many of you will fairly accuse me of writing this article as an excuse to talk about 395. You haters are right, but the joke's on you - I've made a 395 reference in every Blogcat I've written for this website. Clearly, I don't need an excuse. Read more [...]

Assorted Miscellany

It has been a while since I have published anything on the site.

Ass(hole)umptions

It’s been too long since I've written for Bobcat Territory. This must end. I haven’t taken a leave of absence for any particular reason, nor have I returned from my unprecedented-in-length hiatus with an epic tale. I have no sweeping saga with which to regale you (we’ll leave that for Bullets’ next Blogcat). Instead, I want to relate Read more [...]

Human Trafficking

To those of you whose movement is more informed and deliberate, I issue you this challenge: Go to a supermarket on a busy Saturday, and try to walk around for half an hour without getting run into. I dare you. I double dare you. Because it’s impossible. Read more [...]

A Cactus Named Spike

There once was a cactus named Spike. Spike was born in a magical kingdom known as upstate New York, to a mother and father cactus that both loved him very much. At age 5, Spike was sent to Kindergarten. While he missed his parents, he was ready for the real world. Spike met lots of new friends, and spent his days coloring and learning his Read more [...]
