I played around with creating a magazine cover and using different methods to post it. I created a cover using Big Huge Labs as my image generator site. I downloaded the cover to my computer, I uploaded it to both Photobucket and Flickr. When I blogged it from Flickr directly here, I didn't like the size of the post so I resized it and clicking on it takes you to the larger size on the Flickr site. The first cover I did on another subject (a dog alas!) was way too large so I deleted it. But now that I know how to do this, I am going to work on that one again.
Big Brown Wins the Preakness
I am still sad over the loss of Eight Belles at the Kentucky Derby while I delighted in Big Brown's decisive win. After I watched the Florida Derby in early spring, I knew Big Brown would be a contender for the Triple Crown. His looks remind me of Barbaro. Well he did it again folks at the Preakness. I would love to see him win the Triple Crown. He's an awesome horse.
Thing 10 was created from BlinkYou.com
I have edited this caption since I decided to keep it on my blog as an early attempt in Thing 10 to post image generators. It was very frustrating until I got the hang of doing this. I have played around with re-sizing image generators, removing them if too big, moving them around my blog. Alas, I sort of like this one because of liking cats and butterflies. So I will leave it here. I am still learning as I go on.
Barbaro on You Tube
This is one of my favorite tributes to the beloved Barbaro, forever in my heart:
Secretariat's Belmont Race
Many horseracing fans hoped that Barbaro would win the Triple Crown and he was often compared to Secretariat, known fondly as Big Red. Secretariat's Belmont record still stands. If you love horses and have time to watch this, it's worth it. I am lucky enough to have witnessed this Triple Crown victory. I was a race fan even back then:

Look out CatFancy.....here comes Lester! Representing the rare Orangecatia Breed, Lester embodies the luxurious coat and elegant poise required by the written standard. Athletic, dignified and graceful, he was the judges pick for Best in Show at the prestigious International TICA show held earlier in October at the Ritz-Carlton in NYC!
Lester is a star and a beauty BUT hates to be groomed--hence the nickname "Shabby Tabby."
