I didn’t LET him near it. And now I can’t keep him off it.

But I will.

You are brave, I never let the kitties near my laptop. Cat hair in the keyboard would be a challenge to get out. Sides, can’t type with a cat there. He does look adorable thou.

Men better off without women? That is a moronic idea. I’m always struck by the idea that social life in Muslim countries where women are sequestered or bagged up must be horribly boring. Imagine going to coffee shops and restaurants and malls and not seeing any women, or seeing only a moving black sack. Ugh.

Cats love keyboards because they see your hands there all the time. They think “if that’s where her hands are, then if I go there, they’ll be petting me instead.”

I’m jealous. If I tried a stunt like that, I’d get slapped. Even when I was younger and better looking.

I had a cat named C’mell, too. She was the most beautiful cat I ever had, and a one-woman cat. She only paid attention to other people when I wasn’t around.

I never forget “The Crime and Glory of Commander Suzdal” whenever I read on a thread some moron saying that men would be better off without women. Cordwainer Smith was brilliant.

I was gonna make a comment about the incredible cuteness of Tig, but now I’m marveling at the Cordwainer Smith thread cooking here. Jeez!

Our cat C’Mell used to get on the keyboard of Lisa’s desktop. For various reasons, Lisa switched to the laptop. Sure enough, so did C’Mell.

But her fur is so soft and she has the sweetest little purr.

Give him another couple of weeks and he’ll be posting to this blog. Heck, my cat has already figured out:
1) how to turn on the TV with the remote control, then change the channel — to Animal Planet (honest!),
2) how to turn on my portable CD player, then lie there on the bed next to the headphones contentedly listening to the Claremont Trio performing Mendelssohn’s Trio #1 in D Minor, and
3) how to get the synthesized female prompting voice in my answering machine to start talking suddenly while I was in the kitchen kneading a batch of sourdough bread.

Surely, Tig can outdo him, especially since mine hasn’t (as of yet, anyway) managed to master the computer.

Dumb animals, my foot!
