Hats and wives are easy to differentiate. You can hang a hat on the coat
rack.

Ordinarily, yes. I believe, however, that dorayme was referring to
Oliver Sacks' book, "The man who mistook his wife for a hat and other
clinical tales" (http://books.google.ca/books?id=rCoi4ciR-Y8C)

- on my list of 'books I'd like to read when I finally have time'
(Although I did recently manage to read - very quickly, as it
turned out - "Look Me In The Eye". I seem to know a few people
like that! Recommended.)

Indeed.

When the cats were alive around this joint here, I often would
mistake a boot or a box for one of them (the dark shape in
peripheral vision). What was more creepy was this happening after
they died: 'mistaking a boot for a dead cat'.

I have no idea what's up with the "long URL strings" that some have
reported. Here is the string, broken up so you can see it:
htt
p://sites.google.co
m/site/semicodin/ohTHAT/bracket/semi99999_FINAL.html

The only thing I can surmise is that Google is adding garbage to the
end of the link. Sorry, I have no control over that. The link should
work, nonetheless.

Here's the vault again:

http://sites.google.com/site/semicodin
or
http://sites.google.com/site/semicodin/ohTHAT
or
http://sites.google.com/site/semicodin/ohTHAT/bracket
or

them grief to open the html in a new browser window.
