Thanks everyone for the kind comments - you're a great group. Oh, I've got some random post whoring to do! I now live on the first floor at my dorm, and it turns out there are about five or six stray cats that hang around the school. My friend and I have been naming them, and I've been trying for the longest to win one over, but they're all very paranoid and skittish. Until we met "Jinxie" - a beautiful fuzzy black cat, with a white tipped-tail (thus the "Meet the Parents" name)...he's absolutely adorable, and very friendly, and he's come by the past few nights to hang out with us on our porch. He actually fell asleep in my lap last night, and now I know I'm too attached. I wonder what Tiger and Angie would think if they knew I'm cheating on them.

He actually fell asleep in my lap last night, and now I know I'm too attached. That's how it all starts. My step-daughter was in college and she had just adopted a kitten. It was Easter break and she was going to spend it with her mother and me... just one problem. What was she gonna do with her kitten? I told her she could bring it along with her (even though I already had two cats at home). Over the break I asked her what she would do with the cat when the school year was over and she said she'd just let it "out". My wife and I told her that wasn't right and we ended up keeping that kitten. That was 17+ years ago, and that kitten is OzzieBoy. He's still with me and is my best companion. I never once regretted that decision to keep him. Better break the news to Tiger and Angie now.

I see Amazon listed among the search spiders. I can understand yahoo and Google, but Amazon?? That's Amazon's bot that searches the site content to deliver "relevant" ads. I don't think it works very well. The current one (on the bottom right of the page) is about learning Spanish, another for a laptop case, etc. :shrug:
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

Aw, SC, that was OzzieBoy?! That's adorable...you made a very good choice.
I'm just about ready to take this one home (except for reactions from the other two felines, and more importantly, my mom...haha), but I just can't believe he's actually a stray. He's around a lot, but he's such a nice-looking cat and so friendly, that I find it hard to believe he has no owner. The others are definitely 'street cats,' but this one seems like a housepet. We fed him tuna and milk today, though, so I don't think we'll have to worry about him leaving us!

Cats = cute. Dogs = useless, unless they are seeing eye dogs, fire station dogs, police dogs, hunting dogs etc.

I swear my X Girlfriends cat, would imagine herself in situations and play around acting them out. I know it sounds stupid, but they play games with themselves. Like this cat would be sitting still, then the next second it would be off chasing itself around the lounge room pretending something was chasing it.
Now that I think about it, I kinda miss the little thing.
The hero and the coward both feel the same thing, but the hero uses his fear, projects it onto his opponent, while the coward runs. It's the same thing, fear, but it's what you do with it that matters. Cus D'Amato

Dogs are loving and great to have. Nothing beats coming home from a bad day and having something so consistently freaking happy to see you. However, they are so consistent that they can be boring. The affection of a cat has to be EARNED, and is therefore more valued. If a dog jumps up and wants to cuddle with you, it's a given. Having a cat want to jump into your lap, though, is a gift. What about having two jump in your lap at the same time?  Cats are awesome, they clean themselves and shit in a box. Dogs you have to let out and then avoid the dogshit in your yard later on and they are filthy animals.
Long as I remember The rain been coming down. Clouds of Mystery pouring Confusion on the ground. Good men through the ages, Trying to find the sun; And I wonder, Still I wonder, Who'll stop the rain.

 He - (Simón Bolívar) - was shaken by the overwhelming revelation that the headlong race between his misfortunes and his dreams was at that moment reaching the finishing line. The rest was darkness. "Damn it," He sighed. "How will I ever get out of this labyrinth!" So what’s the labyrinth? That’s the mystery isn’t it? Is the labyrinth living or dying? Which is he trying to escape - the world, or, the end of it?

Five?? Wow. We have one cat, one dog, a bird and several fish.
I love them all, but there are days when I wish that useless pig of a bird would just fly off to bird heaven. We had a bird a few years back. Mario the cockateel! He squawked constantly. In the end we passed him along to my wifes brother,who passed him along in turn to somebody else. Poor Mario (but he was annoying) 
I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees!
