The Many Faces of Serious Cat IV (300-400)

Still Serious after all these years. Four hundred, but I’m sure half of them are dead. Siftopia is still the best damn town on the internet. Thanks for all the votes!


The TSA



I was doing a lot of air travel, and the boys and girls in blue were really petting me the wrong way.

Adding to the critter diversity of the Sift. Lots to watch, and some great threads. Love the winged critters.

The War of 1812



Here I wear the uniform of Admiral of the Fleet Sir George Cockburn, 10th Baronet. Cockburn was present on the HMS Tonnant, which held Francis Scott Key during the battle of Baltimore. Incidentally, he was a dinner guest, not a prisoner. Also learned the Washington was looted by it’s own citizens while under attack by the British. Some things never go out of style.
