    Hey now, be kind. Ms Spinners is really nice. We've had a lot of nice chats, she's a web developer. :-\

    Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

      Just a silly question: do you have a pet? If so, what is it? I know that Sander - @Sanderrossel - has a cat. I have a cat, but I'm broadminded and don't mind dogs. Just remember: a dog may be man's best friend, but a cat won't tell the police where you hide your drugs ...

      A house cat. Plus two other neighbourhood cats which we feed. One thing I've learnt in dealing with animals is patience. Whether it is eating food, or drinking water, or other biological things like urinating or defecating, an animal takes its own length of time. So, we have to learn to be patient, no scope for urgency. See video here - Cat Rolling its Eyes in Fear - YouTube[^]

            One rescue dog that was owner surrendered for killing cats. (Four?) months later she found a five week old kitten at the side of the road. After a little drama for a few days, I've had them for over four years. If you want to see them playing here's a FB vid: [Sophie and Kit Cat](https://www.facebook.com/david.oneil.1420/videos/2115103258524427/).

              After 20 years of no pets (it is cruel to have a pet in an apartment) we now have 2 black labs - huge time wasters.

                  Pet rock, from the 70's. Doesn't eat much.

                  If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

                  That's because (coming from the 70s) it is still stoned

                    To misquote Oscar Wilde: "To lose one cat may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness." Perhaps you should consider a goldfish?

                    That's just adding insult to injury :( I've had some very bad weeks because of this incident. It's not like I want to lose them, but cats go outside and in my case get scared off by neighbor cats or whatever. Goblin was very social and I've kept him inside for for seven weeks, which should be enough for him to know it's his house and it's safe. He's been outside for a bit a couple of times before, which went well. In any case, I don't think his taking off was voluntary. And I'm starting to doubt if Pink's was, which went exactly the same (but after ten weeks)... :( Needless to say, my next cat won't be going outside in the first year or so and after that only with a GPS collar...
