You might be surprised how many webcams there are of cute animals out there. Just Google "zoo" and "webcam". Here's one of my favorites, the sea otter cam at Georgia Aquarium: https://www.georgiaaquarium.org/webc...-otter-webcam/

Ok, watching that website is almost more fun than having sex...also, please note that I am "senior" now and watching otters floating on their backs is a lot more relaxing than watching dogs humping in the park across the road.

A friend of mine had a GREAT idea. He is going through his old photographs - actual photographs from long ago, not digital photographs - and finding pictures of times that he shared with friends. Then he takes a digital pic of the photograph with his phone, and emails or texts it to that person - saying "remember this?"

He sent me a picture of a sand sculpture we both made at the beach about 30 years ago. It has kept me smiling all day.
