I hear everyone complain about how their boyfriends are dogs, and I have to say gals, I think you’re the lucky ones. Dogs may be smelly and drool and what not, but at least they’re loyal and friendly and act happy when you get home. I, on the other hand, think that maybe my boyfriend is a cat. Lines of evidence include:
1. He comes and goes as he likes.
2. He’s far friendlier when I offer food.
3. He sleeps about 14 hours a day.
4. He acts like it’s a privilege to give him attention.
5. He tries to lay on me alot.
6. When I’m reading the paper, he gets in front of it and wants attention.
7. He bats at quickly moving objects.
8. He spends a good deal of time grooming himself, especially after I’ve touched him.
9. He doesn’t come when called.
10. He sheds everywhere.
11. He makes funny little grumbly sounds when he’s happy.
12. He’s kind of territorial.
13. He’s destroyed the couch.
14. Sometimes he sprays in the bathroom.
15. I’m not sure he would notice if I were gone for a few days.So, in any case, if you have a dog of a man that you’re a little tired of and you’d like to try something else, I would like to offer you a trade for my cat of a boyfriend. He comes with a few toys, a bowl, and a week’s supply of food. By the way, if you don’t have a man, I would also be willing to trade a good bottle of wine for him, and I’ll promise to toast to your success as a couple while I’m drinking it.

|link| John Hawkins lists those things in debates that really irritate him. Written from a politically right point of view, I think it applies to liberals and conservatives equally; there are stupid people at every extreme.

|link| US News is having a ballot to detirmine the most important documents in US History. Many of them, like the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, are obvious but not as obvious are the nominations of the Boulder Canyon Project Act or the Transcript of John Glenn’s Official Communication with the Command Center. Each document has roll-overs which briefly describe the item, and links to the full text for your perusal.
