Bugs Quiet

Posted on July 15, 2011 by

A quick word if you’re new here:  Bugs was a semi-feral six-month-old kitten when he permitted this Bean to take him in.  He had some contact with other beans before he came to this one — but not much.  This … Continue reading →

Ma.  I know that rhythm.  I want to play it. Bean:  Gosh, Bugs, I don’t know.  You know what a pain in the patooty it is to replace drum-heads.  Remember the little drum I let you play a while back? … Continue reading →
