That cat kicks your ass on every cylinder.
You know, without a smilie or a wink or any indication that you mean no offense that reads pretty insulting.

Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries

I'm just a dandelion

I think the cat is a genius.
For Myles--
When evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love


For Mom--
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.

Fly...fly high against the sky...
Thank you, thank you, thank God for you
The wind beneath my wings

I find this supposition highly suspect. How do any of us know what a small mammalian species is cognizant of? You are filibustering. I suggest this topic be moved to the Close or locked, because I am getting highly offended. The suggestiveness is starting to become quite scurrilous.
There's no point. I tried to get people to shut up in here about Michael Jackson's perviness and it didn't work. (Oh, and btw, MJ's still dead. Film at 11.)

Anyway. I will grant you all that it is, perhaps, a stretch to say that the cat is aware that it has no opposable thumbs, per se. But it is not a stretch to assume that the cat can see the advantage in allowing its self-propelling furniture/food source to place it in highly embarrassing situations occasionally. YouTube video shoots are fleeting; kibble is forever.

That said, some cats do have a limit. I have a friend who occasionally succumbs to the desire to dress up her cats. One of her cats simply rolls over on his side and looks at her until she takes the outfit off.

Watch your mouth young man, or I won't take you out for ice cream. And yes, I am at your mom's house.

I think what's put LF over the edge is the argument that the cat can't dress himself, which cannot be proven, when what should be discussed is whether or not a musician can dress himself.

If cats can't dress themselves then how do you explain this?

Lotsa proof that cats can dress themselves.....but still no proof musicians can.
