I haff somefing to say about most eberyfing. Dis may not be an every week type ob fing -- it jus depends upon how absurd my (and your) week has been.

- How come Mom puts da hummingbird feeder, da boidbaff, and da boidfeeder rite outside my faborite window? Is dis her idea ob torture? .......drooooooooool......
- If dere is litter scattered outside ob da litterbox, why isn't it ok to poop dere? Litter is litter I always meow.
- Jus cause I like a dry food when it's in da wittul sample pakajes, does NOT mean I'll like it if da big bag is bought and fed to me daily. You'd think they'd get a clue!
