Monday Meanderings - 8.15.2016

One of the benefits of being without Internet access for a week or so is that you are not bombarded with the latest political babble. No Donald, no Hillary, no kidding.   Although I had already noted that it takes me far less time to check social media these days. When you flip past anything that even faintly looks like political rhetoric, it doesn't take long to check Facebook & Twitter.

Here's an item that showed up recently on the Austin Craig's List:


"Free cat to loving home, broken home, single person, broke person or homeless person. This cat will be perfect for you if:

• If you are looking for a companion that is a reflection of your cold dark heart
• If you hate people and are looking for a pet that shares your disdain for the human race
• If you can't afford to go to the zoo but want to experience what it is like living in a lion's cage
• If you are tired of being blamed for all the problems in your relationship and would like something to share the blame with.
• If you are into are a glutton for punishment and enjoy sadomasochistic behavior i.e. being bitten, boxed and hissed at continuously
• If you want a constant reminder of your ex-lover that broke up with you via text message and then ignored your calls for months.

The cat is named Ringo but has never shown any interest in responding to that name, so feel free to call it whatever you like."
