Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Is your dog an Optimist or a Pessimist?

There are happy dogs that expect a good thing to happen, and then there are others who seem to have a case of the gloomies. Dogs can be classified as optimists or pessimists the same as humans, according to research from a team led by Michael Mendl.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I still can't believe that mine story. P-C, they sent stuff down to them.

Yeah, they had some narrow tube, so anything that could fit they could send down.
