And the barman says "Hey, no animals allowed in here".
The cat looks up and says "I'm not an animal - I'm a cat".
"What's the difference?", asks the barman.
"Well, " said the cat, with the tone of one explaining something simple to an child, "You know that humans are pretty much top of the food chain, and have dogs come at their beck and call, and have sheep provide them with wool, and cows with milk, right?"
"Yes, of course"
"And humans wouldn't let themselves be bossed around my any animal right? I mean - they're the masters of animals"
"Except wild ones right - like Lions and Bears and Arghblargles"
"Okay - and humans provide us cats with food and give us their dwellings when we move in to take over their lives right? Boss them around? Make them sit where we want them, sleep where we want them?"
"Err, I don't think that's ..."
"Humans are our pets, and we cats get to boss them around" interrupted the cat, "and since humans aren't bossed around by animals, clearly we cats aren't animals".
And with that, the cat claimed the spice hall as his own, and changed its name to "SpiceCat Nip hall".
No - the above was not a joke - mainly because it's earlyish in the morning and my brain is not geared up to writing punch lines after starting some random diatribe. In fact - it is my understanding, that you are meant to start with a punch line and begin to write the lead-up to go with it, but I digress - cats are our masters. That's clear. Cats don't listen to us and are very demanding, but we still do pretty much anything that cats tell us to.
Oh ... and I'm back. I would have been back earlier, but I couldn't remember my password, and I don't think my email address is connected up to anything actually relevant to something I used in the last 5 years.
I haven't yet explored the forum to see what I've missed during my time scampering around in the realm of peoples, but I myself have finished working at one company (yaay, evil boring old company), and am now working for a new company (yaay, shiny exciting new company). So much to do - so little time to do it. I have to finish this post - go fire a torp - go read lots.
I think I'll just go do the torp thing now.
