Before the cat kills them all, they drop to their knees and "assume the position". <br /><br />They get lots of practice at "head"quarters.SiGraybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00280583031339062059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-82137434299544481542011-09-03T09:33:49.344-04:002011-09-03T09:33:49.344-04:00Heh...

That kind of says everything you'll ever need to know about kitties. <br /><br />And there's a deeper message for us humans, though I'm not going to bother stating it.BS Footprinthttp://bsfootprint.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-77374568782087384522011-09-03T06:14:35.766-04:002011-09-03T06:14:35.766-04:00Hi Graybeard,

That the guns only came out when people refused to 'be reasonable'.<br /><br />Thus ended my attempts at pointing out the obvious to people who were high on the mind-altering drug of statism. As the song said, you can't argue with a sick mind. And statists are certainly delusional, among other things.<br /><br />I've been much happier since I stopped pointing out the obvious, and despite more laws, more regulations, bigger 'safety nets', more government, and less liberty, the world's gone further down the tubes.
