    I need to check this out when I get home this afternoon. Off for a beach walk today-the only one on my whole week with 100% sun all day. Might as well get out and enjoy it.

      Our rain has returned. A beach walk in the spring sunshine sounds hard to beat!

    30 minutes is not exactly a SHORT, but I loved it, anyway. That was ONE UGLY cat!

      lol It is actually a short by definition. Shorts are films too short to be considered feature-length films, and that would include anything shorter than an hour or so and certainly anything shorter than 40 minutes. 40 minutes is the limit given by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. I often use the term "short" as short-hand for any film shorter than the shortest feature-length films, which are generally an hour+
