Maybe you should get a good bottle of Scotch and read those Robin comics tonight.
I'll get some sake and make an appointment with the longbox.
Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

the damned cat kept trying to curl up on my head
I love my cat-hat. I don't sleep as well if my cat isn't curled up against the top of my head.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I actually got up this morning because the damned cat kept trying to curl up on my head and it was pulling my hair.
Certainly anti-sedentary, and still not making a case for cats.
Of course, Cashmere's dog is making a rough slog of the dog advocacy these days.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
mock all you want mr. sensitive west-coaster. Mock my perfectly normal-sized fists as they pummel you. Possessed with the spirit of chuck norris, they will hurl unmentionable damage to your person.
The cats on the other hand are not so passive. They leap, claw, hiss, swipe, and run about chasing the dead people they see.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Dogs are so much easier to anthropomorphize than cats.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
State of the Union speech is coming up soon. Schedule your TV viewing accordingly.
Every White House speechwriter, current and former, knows the traditional State of the Union formula: a laundry list of ideas, many of them destined to die in the bowels of some Congressional committee room. (In 2004, Mr. Bush proposed sending humans to Mars, a plan that even Republican strategists mock today.)
The pretense that Bush is going to be anything but the lamest of lame ducks is interesting. He's not going to be able to do anything in the next two years. By this time next year, they'll have be hiring guys at the gas station to be his press secretary as all the rats leave the sinking ship.

Always Anti-fascist!
Gas station...Fox. Six of one... Although I'm gonna miss Countdown's witty "Snow" captions.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
He's not going to be able to do anything in the next two years.
Besides, you know, attack Iran.

Because they have loving hearts! Also if they had opposable thumbs they'd play in Stooges cover bands.

Ha Ha! ::holds clementine up to msbelle's fist which is dwarfed by comparison::

No one will mention this damage because it will be unremarkable.

Well, I have to admit that does constitute a danger of tripping me. Perhaps if I were lured to the top of the steps while they were hunting phantoms and I didn't want to accidentally step on one they could constitute a danger.

Dogs are for people who don't have the self-confidence to cope with cats. A cat will not cut you any breaks, will not give you the look of "Yeah, you're a dork, but I love you." A cat demands that you be strong enough to cope with a creature who loves you on its own terms.
