I realize they are God’s creatures and thus worthy of respect, but I have a major problem with this species of feline.
They freak me out, simple as that.
They resemble a raw piece of chicken – with bug eyes and claws.
FREAKY, RIGHT? Image by Wikipedia.
HOOK’S NOTE: We interrupt our regularly scheduled countdown of all things terrible to bring you this important announcement. Well, its important to me, anyway!
November 19, 2010: A neophyte blogger named The Hook decides to crack the spine on a new blog, The Book of Terrible.
The polar opposite of another blog which will remain nameless, The Hook’s new home forgoes the process of celebrating the “AWESOME!” and instead highlights the joy one can experience from spotlighting the“TERRIBLE!”
Less than one year later, I’ve written a few hundred posts – while making more than a few mistakes along the way – and I’ve learned a thing or two about blogging and life in general.
- NEVER PISS OFF A GIRLFRIEND WHO WRITES A BLOG! You’ll be paying for years. Seriously.
- KEEP HITTING THE SPELL CHECK! Even then, you could screw up, but don’t stop trying!
- GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT! My format change from pop culture rants to “terrible countdown” was prompted by my realization that people want to laugh about shared experiences like the frustration we all feel when someone can’t shut up during a movie. I hate that!
- BLOG BECAUSE YOU WANT TO. When it becomes an obligation or an addcition, its time to go back to using your computer to surf porn.
- NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF NOSTALGIA. My most successful post focussed on the “old” Catwoman Julie Newmar’s opinion on the new Catwoman Anne Hathaway. People love to revisit their youth; the memory is always better than the actual experience.

In closing, a heartfelt “Thank You” to all of my visitors. Whether you’re a subscriber, a casual reader or someone who was just looking for naked pictures of Laura Calder – and there are a lot of you out there – you have my eternal gratitude for stopping by.
With any luck you’ll be reading the print version of The Book of Terrible and You’ve Been Hooked! by this time next year. We can’t let the “AWESOME!” people have complete control of the book world, can we?

I assume you’re pleased with the little kitty?
i once owned a hairless rat. Man, it felt weird to pet that poor little thing…
That’s just weird….
Funny, though.
LOL, my sIster/friend not only has hairless cats, she also has a hairless dog.
They tend to…….grow…..on you.
👍
I’ll take your word on it!
Oops…. CONGRATS!!!!!
THANKS!!!
So am I hearing that I need more links to naked cooking show hosts if I want to increase my hits?
Have you seen this program? Calder’s cameraman CONTINUALLY zeroes in on her boobs EVERY SINGLE EPISODE!
Check it out! Its shameless!
Have you seen my page B&B? Check it out. There is a hairless-ish kitty there, they are all mine. Great post, and super congrats on all the zeros.
I’ve checked it out – and it rocks!
Cool cats! The praise was great too, especially coming from a fellow Canuck!
Yay! Congrats on 100,000 hits! That’s awesome!
I rather like hairless cats. And rats. Hairless rats are amazing. They’re immune to so many crazy diseases.
I don’t know why I like them… it’s probably akin to my liking of three-legged.. and bald men.
I still don’t get the appeal of hairless cats or rats, but to each his own…
Thanks for the praise – and visit!
Dunno. My husband mocks me about it, but I like ‘em still. XD
No problem!! And many more hits to ya!
Yes, keep the hits comin’!
And husbands are supposed to mock wives – and vice versa!
I much prefer cats with hair.
Congrats on the 100,000 hits!
Cats definitely need hair, I agree! And thanks!
That cat looks surprisingly appealing to me after a few days of a pounding headache from allergies. My cat is of course the biggest fur ball on the planet. As a person with allergies, why would I pick a huge fur ball cat as a pet? Well I didn’t. He picked me.
Fate is pretty cruel sometimes, right? But it knows best, I guess.
Congrats! And yeah, hairless cats freak me out too.
I knew I wasn’t alone!

I’ve been feeling like blogging is an obligation lately. I appreciate your permission to go looking for porn (or in my case recipes) instead.
What about cooking sites run by porn stars?
Is the new blog about AWESOME nameless because you do not want to share it with the world YET, or because you do not want to share it with the world at ALL? I am just curious. I have read a few of your blog posts over the past 2 hours and I am amazed. You are officially one of my new favorite bloggers!
You’ve made my week! Cool gravatar, too!
