Phoenix ? ? ?
I find I will be in Phoenix May 12 thru the 16th. I'll be there for
an ABA Equal Justice Conference. The conference itself will be at the Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs (11111 N 7th Street) bit I will be at the overflow hotel Pointe Hilton Squaw Peak Resort (7687 N 16th Street). Breakfasts and lunches I will have to have in the hotel. A couple of the lunches and a dinner have speeches etc and will be at the hotel but I will have at least two dinners on my own. I'm looking for restaurant/foodie suggestions. Phoenix "special" or local food and places to eat it. I'll try to talk some brave soul from the conference into going with me. Suggestions are welcome and my thanks are great. Lynn from Fargo |

Pizzeria Bianco. It's a long wait though..but considered one of the best pizzas in the US. If you can get 5 more people to go with you, you can get a reservation. They do have a wine bar where you can wait. http://www.pizzeriabianco.com/ I ate there on a Wednesday, and was lucky to be with some other RFC'ers and we were pretty close to being first in line... The pizzas are simple, in the Neapolitan style... I think the owner, Chris Bianco, has won a James Beard award. Christine |

The good quality (but not outrageously expensive) steaks are grilled over mesquite wood fire. Standard accompaniments are simple green salad and what they call 'cowboy beans' (pintos). So it's a downhome kind of steakhouse, tasty, substantial food that won't break the budget. If your accompanying brave soul is male, warn him not to wear a tie or they'll (loudly) cut it off and tack it on the wall. Other than that place (and it was some years ago) we've not found foodie destinations in Phoenix. -aem |

Blair Houghton, and Readah...remember them? We all loved it. I think we got every single pizza on the menu...and they were all fantastic. This was back in 1994. And don't pay attention to that Ranger person... Our pizzas were fantastic, and the service was great. We sat at the bar. Chris Bianco, who was there making pizzas, smiled at us. I would go back there in a heartbeat. Christine |

If so, sure. There are a certain number of cat mutilators in the area, yes, but it's been several years since I've heard any reports of this. Also there are people who scoop up loose cats and sell them to the labs at Berkeley. Years ago, a cat disappeared under suspicious circumstances and I'm still not sure it didn't end up in a lab. There's been pressure on the labs not to accept random-source animals so maybe this is less of a problem now. Plus we have ID chips in them (I would hope the animal testers would scan them first, right?) Steve |

There are still too many outdoor cats in our neighborhood and occasionally one disappears. I strongly suspect raccoons or foxes. I can't imagine letting a cat roam free but I guess it's the same mindset that says you shouldn't spay a cat until she's had at least one litter otherwise you are interfering with her "nature". Ugh. gloria p |

Ugh. It's mostly that I've never met an indoor cat who was happy with the situation. Coyotes, domestic dogs, some categories of humans will all attack outdoor domestic cats. Foxes probably would, but not racoons so far as I am aware. Small cats are also subject to predation by raptors. I'm confident that our two, indoor-outdoor, adopted strays have lived a lot longer than they would have if we had never adopted them (they were born in 1999, adopted in 2000-2001). I personally think it's impractical to try to bring in all the outdoor cats, but I know animal rescuers who attempt this (including one who keeps between 50 and 150 indoor cats at any given time). There simply aren't enough adoptors who want indoor-only cats to bring them all indoors. Steve |

Sounds rather dumb but if an inside joke then life goes on! It's not an inside joke. There's no joke about it. Ranger's simply being a cautious father in identifying his children. That you don't like the names he's been using for years is probably going to cause him sleepless nights for weeks. You should hear how he refers to his wife. -- Barb, Mother Superior, HOSSSPoJ http://web.me.com/barbschaller Updated 4-11-2010 |

So WTF are you >talking about? Almost nobody I know keeps a cat trapped indoors, and the handful that I do, the cat is always trying to escape. In one case, the cat did escape and tried to climb a fence after a bird. Unfortunately the cat forgot that in addition to being trapped indoors, it had also been declawed, so it couldn't make it up the fence, fell, and broke its pelvis. Fortunately it was treated and survived. (This is a cat I had lived with, several years previously, when it was a perfectly happy indoor/outdoor cat.) I'm curious about this "hundreds of people" you know with indoor only cats... you must be connected with some slice of humanity that I have nothing to do with. Such as cat breeders. That's my first guess. Steve |
