So far I think Georgia’s worries about the timing of these strips, telling Bandit’s story of why he decided to be a police officer while the U.S. grapples with police brutality and bias, are unfounded. Bandit’s story here is about his role as a brother, not as a cop, and he’s doing a good job of it! He just happens to be in uniform.
Speaking as a mere human, I think Brad is ridiculous: that moustache, that quiff, that cheesy meg-watt smirk … but … he is great dunking booth material!
It cracks me up that Natasha loves this soap and especially Kit Chase! “ He can chase me anytime “. Also that she and Burt and Puck and now Goldie are unanimous in their disdain for That Guy Brad!
It looks as though Bandit has managed to perk Kit up a bit.
OT: Paul: Paul had a really good day yesterday, he was even willing to come and sit outside and watch me plant my annuals, some coleus, and three rosebushes. I hope the trend continues.
OT: My beloved Petey died on April 15th. He was 16 years and 9 months old and I miss him every day. I was missed having a cat underfoot so much, that yesterday, I went to the shelter and adopted a little girl cat. Or rather she adopted me. I sat down in the cat room and she jumped on my lap. And growled at the other cats who approached me. Her shelter name was Siesta, Hubby and I have changed it to Katie. So far, she has done a lot of exploring, all three levels of the house. She’s friendly, bossy and has taken over our lives in one short day. She is a gray with white markings long hair girl. Will take photos soon.
That guy Brad is the worst! You know how awful it is to be sound asleep in an impossibly tiny box, happily dreaming of nom-nom spider treats – and then you are suddenly and rudely awoken to a cold shower from a poorly aimed no-no spray bottle? Well, Brad’s worse than that!
I think Mac was inspired by Bandit’s fangs yesterday and was showing off his yesterday while he slept on my desk (also known as the dining table). Here is a picture:
My only issue with Georgia’s name-choice for His Smarminess is that the name is that of the character played by Barry Bostwick in the RHPS, and he’s one of the Good Guys.
Today is Hot Air Balloon Day … wait, didn’t we already cover those people, yesterday … Oh! That kind of hot air balloon!
Seeing a cluster of hot air balloons, or even one, is very odd. They move so slowly they hardly seem to move at all. While there are birds, insects, and machines that can hover, nothing else really flies the way a hot air balloon does. They are like aerial jellyfish, though they are even less animated. Something in my mind, at least, says: “Something isn’t right, here,” which adds to their charm.
As for going ballooning, I’m told it’s a delightful experience—if you don’t care where you are going. Me, in spite of no fear of heights and a love of flying, I’ll stick to wingy thingies, or at least blimps. I also salute those who courageously decide to be aerial jellyfish.
And there is one thing I can definitely say about ballooning: It will tell you who your real friends are. You get to have all the fun, but then someone has to drive Cat-knows-where to pick you up and take you and your deflated jellyfish home.
Queen Catshepsut the Golden: We were glad to bring you the best of all our dumpsters. Now Sophititi and Iron-Glove can get started on their project as predicted by Baba-Stet.
Queen Cat: Oh, you mean the wedding bells for Avenger and Emma-Peelia?
Tabith-Isis: Maat-Tilda and I want to help with creating Emma’s wedding veil and Avenger’s Tux. Where is the happy couple, by the way?
Iron-Glove: You don’t need to buy the way. You’re welcome to as much as you want for free.
Tabith-Isis: That’s great.
Enter the Head Beaver, Theo-Bromide
Theo: I’ve brought some wood for a fire, and these fine mice have crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate bars.
Queen Cat: Where did my Royal Procures get these items?
Alice-Ata: We’ll never tell.
Queen Cat: Oh well, I don’t think I want to know anyway.
I personally have had little to no success with the “alley box of love” concept. However, it is the basis of the “romance industry” which encourages you to spend what little you do have as competitively as possible.
When I was a kid back in the ’70s I remember my Grandma had a sewing circle where her and some of her friends from the church would get together and more often than sewing they would watch that old console color TV (the one that was made by Zenith or Curtis Mathis, was 6 feet long with a turntable and stereo built in) and would just pile on the villain of the week on “Search For Tomorrow” or “Days of our Lives”. At the time I remember how I thought those ladies would truly do away with this bad guy if they ever met him on the street. Of course back then I thought pro wrestling was real too…… Good memories!
O.T. Cindy Lou update – well, the V-E-T couldn’t really find anything wrong with Cindy, except perhaps an upper respiratory infection. Her lab work came back perfect, except for slightly elevated sugar, probably caused by the dose of steroids a couple of weeks ago. The vet is not worried about this. The original round of meds resolved the vertigo (it was sad to see Cindy staggering and walking into walls, I have episodes from time to time myself and it’s not fun). No fever either. So Cindy got another long-acting antibiotic shot “just in case”. But although she seems normal to the vet, I live with her and I know darn well she does not feel well. I will be keeping a close eye on her but I’m somewhat less worried now. Huge thanks to all for the hugs, boops, purrs, head bumps and good vibes!!

Point: ♫”I want you to think (think)
What your family would say
Think (think)
What you’re throwing away
Now think what the future would be with a poor boy like me, me
Angora, go away I’m no good for you.”♫ (“Dawn”, The Four Seasons)
Counterpoint: ♫“She’s gonna listen to her heart
It’s gonna tell her what to do
She might need a lot of lovin’
But she don’t need you (Brad).”♫ (“Listen To Her Heart”, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers)

Can’t buy her love, Kit
Can’t buy her love
Brad’ll buy her a diamond ring, my bro
But it won’t make her feel all right
Brad the cad’s got bubkis, my bro
That’ll make her feel all right
‘Cause she don’t care too much for money
Money can’t buy her love
You’ll give her all you’ve got to give
You know she loves you, too
You think you don’t have much to give
But we all know that isn’t true
We don’t care too much for Brad and
Money can’t buy her love
Can’t buy her love
Everybody knows it’s so
Can’t buy her love
No, no, Brad, just no
(Natasha and cats scream)
