The breakfast of champions

It amazes me at times what a cat will chomp down on. This morning Sabrina was
getting a lesson in being a cat: learning the virtue of curiosity, she
accepted the offer of Stosh's behind for her approval. Stosh always carries
his tail straight up, as if inviting all the world to take a sniff. Sabrina,
however, looked to get a little better acquainted, and took a good sound bite
into Stosh's tuchas. He was gentlemanly about it, except in dipping his tail,
so that Sabrina got a little bap on the nose, which sent her into a cussfest
ending with her swatting her brother in the snout.

The behind seems to have been the chomp of choice this morning as Stosh
followed me into the kitchen and, as i made my breakfast, got up on a stool
and proceeded to bite my hindquarters lightly but repeatedly. Human ham seems
to have been in order; and while the kids got pouches of chicken and giblets,
this seemed an acceptible substitute for the raw flesh of my dupcia.

Blesseed be,

It's probably more appealing than my toes, which are what Ollie
presently wants to start the day with.

I emerged from reading and responding to the gay politician thread,
only to discover this comment from Baha via CatKB.com:

Before reading on, I just had to stop and enjoy a moment of chuckling,
as well as the reminder as to why I read this newsgroup to begin with.

Maybe he's simply paying it forward.

From gay politicians to butt-biting? Do you have any concept of how hard I'm
trying not to lose it as I sit at my desk, barely 5 feet away from my boss?

If I have made a person laugh, then I have been a good Boy Scout for the day.
If i tie your pupik up in knots, even better.

Maybe he's simply paying it forward.

That one I don't get--what does it mean to pay it forward? Revenge? Or doing
his own good deed for the day? if that's it, my tuchas will disagree.

Blessed be,
Baha

Chicken or my dupcia? Because if my kiester is appetizing, then set out the
buffet table and the china service for 12, because that's what it'll take!

Someone did it to him, so he passes on the favor to someone else.

Usually meant in a positive way, like someone does something nice for
you, and instead of doing something nice back for the same person, you
do something nice for a different person (or 3 people, depending on
your philosophy). So instead of paying someone *back* for the favor,
you pay it *forward*, get it? This keeps a chain of good deeds going,
from person to person.

In the negative sense, it's more like taking out your frustrations
on someone else. Someone's mean to you, so you go home and kick the
dog, etc. Not that I'm advocating this!! Just describing the meaning.
I don't think anyone really means this kind of thing by the phrase
"pay it forward", but I was being ironic. Maybe my humor was a little
too obscure to make much sense...

LOL, this is the sort of post that reminds me not to eat or drink whilst
reading this group.

It was a Movie. Paying it Forward. Kevin Spacey, Helen Hunt and Haley Joel
Osment. The idea is you do three good things to help three people and they
help three people and exponentially it grows from there. Cute concept. The
idea is right but you just can't always count on other people. And (in the
movie) don't count on a touchy feel good ending.

So this will mean that I have to bite 3 people on the derriere?

I am fond of saying the immortal phrase "Bite me," usually at work after
hanging up on a difficult yutz who refuses to take a simple message. This may
be my own karma at work here, too.

Blessed be,

Some people have all the fun!

You can do that at work? That definitely wouldn't fly where I work.
I'm sorry you have to deal with jerks, but at least you can blow off
steam when someone deserves it.
