Blogging with The Bruce

If you want to see what I look like while blogging, here you go. I own perhaps the coolest cat in the world — The Bruce. He’s half Siamese and half Scottish Fold. If you don’t know what a Scottish Fold is, you should follow that link. They’re really a wonderful example of the building blocks of evolution. Their folded ears were caused by a genetic mutation, one that we watched happen in the 1960s. We just added a little artifical selection pressure to help propel the gene responsible for this characteristic.

The Bruce is named after the character in Braveheart. He also has an insatiable need for affection and will generally follow you around wherever you go. This morning, he joined me for blogging.
