Why is the panhandler at 2:12 making the scanner report? The same guy stands at I-90 and Argonne, I-90 and Pines, I-90 and Sullivan. It’s got to be the same guy.

“R/P has questions re: where to enthanize a cat.”—he says upon finding his priceless heirloom tapestry shredded in the corner of the room

“R/P has questions re: where to enthanize a cat.”—he says after finding a gallon of entrails on the white carpet

“R/P has questions re: where to enthanize a cat.”—he says after finding the china cabinet in a thousand itty bitty pieces

“R/P has questions re: where to enthanize a cat.”—he says to the sounds of caterwauling and a blender in the background.

All perfectly logical questions Sis. However, legend has it, Microwaves are a bad idea.

No killing kitty jokes!
My own Milo got me this card for Mother’s Day.
It read:
“A Mother’s Day Haiku from the cat
Nice lady pets me.
Scoops the poop out of my box.
I call her mommy.”

Betcha dogs don’t write haiku!
Cabbage Boy on May 11 at 4:14 p.m.
Yeah they do.

Woof!

repeat until you get the right amount of syllables.

“Betcha dogs don’t write haiku!”—no more glowing endorsement for dogs has ever been written. ;-)

All in jest Jeanie. I have two cats who love me. At least once a day.

Dogs - proof that God wanted people to be happy.
Cats - proof that God wanted to keep people humble.

My son and I just had a disagreement about which animals are smarter. He said, “You can teach a dog to play dead and roll over.”
I replied. “Cats are smarter. If you try to get them to do those things they just look at you as if to say, ‘You first.’”

I love both cats and dogs but have to say, the jokes that go around about dumb dog/smart cat - they are true. My dog was a happy-go-lucky thought-he-was-a-cat pit bull and he thought this because the cat mezmerized him with her stare and brainwashed him to think he was a cat. And once her job of taming him was done, she would regally leave the room, and he’d be bouncing behind her, her doting goofy slave.
