    Didn't a Canadian squirrel cause a massive cascading blackout across the northeastern US and parts of Canada back in the 70's or 80's?

    THAT WAS A "CAT-TASTROPHE"!
    We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
    Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
    Ergo, religion.

    rac·ist
    rāsəst/noun
    a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
    Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
    If the answer is yes, you are a racist.

    Heheheheh -- it sounds funny. We have parrots so no kitties, although when they still lived at home my daughters had one. He learned quickly to ignore any birds calling "Here kitty kitty kitty."

    A couple of pages had me laughing out loud crying. Not many books can do that. But you'd have to have a cat for it to be that funny.

    If you see something, say something.

    I'm sure others were involved. He could not have done this alone.
