but that's a cat's job!

...and their way of saying, "see? you're okay. so feed me already!"

Yeah, it's how they show they kinda, sorta, vaguely care.

Cats: The World's First Hipsters.

This speaks volumes as to why I have a dog.

I've been fighting a cold or something for a week. This morning I finally lost. I called my choir director and told him I wasn't well and couldn't sing this morning and went back to bed. Hyvvie cuddled up to me and lay down on my pillow, over my head. Then he moved his head so it was next to mine. He was taking care of his daddy.

Dogs are nice, but they require walking whether one is sick or well. So that can be a drawback under some conditions.

Besides, on weekends I get revenge on the cats for depriving me of sleep in the morning by randomly waking them up from their sleep in the afternoon.

So they just sleep for the remaining 20 hours of the day instead.

That's something dogs and cats have in common. Snoopy said that it was because he had to be well-rested in case the next day was important. It probably wouldn't be, but just in case.

Someone somewhere said that "Peanuts" was not so much a comic strip as it was a documentary on the behavior of beagles. I'm wont to agree.

People don't use "wont" very much anymore.

It's a perfectly good word. I think we also need to say "beseech" and "vouchsafe" more often.

I would add "aghast" to the list.

Another I like is "unfeignedly".

Watch everyone confuse "feign" with "fain" though. Oh, the hijinks that will ensue!

Hmmm...if you add "or" to "feign" it becomes "foreign."

for the reign of the regnant foreigners rains for four fortnights.

Bet you can't type that three times fast.

define "fast."

Among other things, it means "to go without food".

I have done that. It is not fun.

Food, glorious food!
Hot sausage and mustard!
While we're in the mood --
Cold jelly and custard!
Peas, pudding and saveloys!
What next is the question?
Rich gentlemen have it, boys --
In-di-gestion!

Food, glorious food!
We're anxious to try it.
Three banquets a day --
Our favourite diet!

Just picture a great big steak --
Fried, roasted or stewed.
Oh, food,
Wonderful food,
Marvellous food,
Glorious food.

"saveloys"?

Origin of SAVELOY
modification of French cervelas, from Middle French, from Old Italian cervellata, literally, pig's brains, from cervello brain, from Latin cerebellum — more at cerebellum

How do I put this gently?

Eww!

I think it's just Quis' way of congratulating Saturn Girl for her news in the "shout" room.

I don't think they are made with pigs brains anymore (if ever). According to wikipedia, the taste is similar to a frankfurter.

And you can always trust wikipedia on matters involving pig brains.

And, of course, there's never anything questionable in a hot dog! :rolleyes:
