 -> The only cats they make rugs of are lions and tigers - IOW, not your

 -> moggy that has been living in the wild. How do you feel about mink or
 -> chinchilla coats? Or ermine and/or fox? 

 RH> A coat is the best use I can think of for mink and ermine.  Nasty
 RH> little buggers.  Fox are predators too, and they'll go after a moggie
 RH> if they can catch one.  Fox make great coats.  I'm prejudiced in favor
 RH> of felines, I guess.  

Rabbit skins are as good as any for making coats, and have the
advantage that they are good to eat.
 
 -> Hell, teenagers (and under 30s) need a glossary for anything that isn't
 in
 -> their direct experience or interest. Or on their confuser screens or
 RH> cell phone
 -> apps. Many don't get Elvis, the Beatles or Credence Clearwater, or for
 RH> that
 -> matter Roger Miller or Rolf Harris.

 RH> Heck, I don't know who Rolf Harris is!  I had to Google him.  I

A very multi-talented man.  Not many other Australian singers have the
Queen sit for them to have her portrait painted.

 RH> surprised the heck out of a friend locally when I told him I've never
 RH> heard the White Album all the way through.  My parents weren't into
 RH> rock, they were old enough that they remembered Pearl Harbor, and I
 RH> didn't have older siblings to feed me the older stuff.  The teenagers
 RH> now have parents who were into 80s rock and 70s stuff; it was their

After going to a concert on Monday to hear Ravi Shankar and his
daughter, Anoushka, both on sitars, I told my USAn niece, who had to
think hard to remember the name, but she knew well the name of his
other daughter, Norah Jones, a jazz singer.  I, OTOH, had never heard
of Norah until reading her father's history since I first was
attracted to his playing.
