    Hey, Ripsters! I think it’s time for another classic, don’t you? What – you don’t? Well…I’ve got my ten fine toes to wiggle in the sand, so to speak. And you know where that goes…

    A man walking along a road near a lake with a bucket full of fish is stopped by the game warden. “Do you have a fishing license?” the warden asks.

    “No, Sir, I don’t,” the man admits. “But I haven’t been fishing; these are my pet fish.”

    “Pet fish? That’s preposterous!” says the warden.

    “It’s true, Sir,” the man replies. “In fact, I’m on my way to the lake to give them their daily exercise. I put them into the water, let them swim around for awhile, and then I whistle for them and they swim back to the shore and jump into the bucket, and I take them home.”

    “Now, this I’ve got to see!”

    “Just watch this, then,” the man says. With that, he dumps the fish into the lake.

    “So when are you going to whistle?” asks the game warden.

    “Whistle? Why would I want to whistle?”

    “To call your fish back, of course!”

    “What fish?”

    So based upon cats having nine lives, they live up to 126 years or something?

    Humans, compared to almost every other mammal, are born severely premature. While other mammals are born nearly able to walk around on their own, our big human skulls would make childbirth impossible by that level of development.

    So, with that said, a cat who’s only a few days old is already closer to the equivalent of a toddler.

    I’m happy for Robert Downey Jr. , how many minutes did he appear ? And I always wished that he and Jude Law would have made a followup with Sherlock Homes movies : ( The last one was the Game of Shadows ) At the end he put a " ? " on the letter that Jude Law was typing , I had hoped that that meant a new movie . But that was in 2011 , sad : (

    As a person who has worked as an extra on a TV show, I can testify that it takes much longer than 1 minute to create 1 minute of screen time.

    I think the record is held by Marlon Brando as Superman’s dad. 20 minutes for $4 million plus 12%.

    Does that include the times we heard his voice but didn’t see his face?

    In the past on TV, someone said Robert Downey, Jr was a has been. Somebody didn’t agree. Nice something isn’t true simply because someone said it.

    yeah see that doesn’t look like Robert Downey Jr, at all. Our cartoonist needs to work on that. The ability to do a good portrait can be learned.

    The cat hair post would make more sense to me, if we’re in inches and not in that metric crapola.
