Mr Blinky, I would have taken your post more seriously if you hadn't mentioned you were having...INSTANT! ---- M.Hulot, are you sure Mr/Ms Kitty there is the culprit? I think Squirrels are usually wayyyy too fast and smart to be caught by the average kitty! --- Anyway..yep, another great day (made better with my fresh home-made non-instant coffee. Sorry Blinky ).

MonsieurHulot Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 M.Hulot, are you sure Mr/Ms Kitty there is the culprit? I think Squirrels are usually wayyyy too fast and smart to be caught by the average kitty! I'm not sure Miss Poupée is the culprit but she sure is a (usual) suspect. She's smart, fast, brave (from time to time, she likes to confront snakes) and she loves me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 If one of my cats kill anything, they have to drag it around the shop and show everyone for about an hour. I think that Miss Poupée is innocent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonsieurHulot Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) She is guilty, I can see it in her eye. Well I just questioned Poupée. She blamed the murder on another cat by the name of Keyser Söze I tend to believe she is innocent because, when she kills a squirrel, she usually eats a thigh or two. This squirrel was dead, no doubt about it, but he still had four limbs. I take it that he overdosed on lamyais.

Rasseru Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 This is so perfect! I can recite here my favourite poem of all time. It's called Crow Tyrannosaurus and reading it always makes a good day even better: Creation quaked voices -- It was a cortege Of mourning and lament Crow could hear and he looked around fearfully. The swift's body fled past Pulsating With insects And their anguish, all it had eaten. The cat's body writhed Gagging A tunnel Of incoming death-struggles, sorrow on sorrow. And the dog was a bulging filterbag Of all the deaths it had gulped for flesh and the bones. It could not digest their screeching finales. Its shapeless cry was a blort of all those voices. Even man he was a walking Abattoir Of innocents -- His brain incinerating their outcry. Crow thought "Alas Alas ought I To stop eating And try to become the light?" But his eye saw a grub. And his head, trapsprung, stabbed. And he listened And he heard Weeping Grubs grubs He stabbed he stabbed Weeping Weeping Weeping he walked and stabbed Thus came the eye's roundness the ear's deafness.

Rasseru Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 As some of you know, I am presently in cold and wet Farawayland . . . It is really heart warming to read something like this, reminding me why I moved to the Land of Smiles Unless I am badly mistaken, Priceless, I believe that now is about the time many people awake and rise from their beds in your faraway land. Perhaps you are dragging yourself bleary-eyed from slumberland even as I write this note to you. Since you enjoyed at least some of the earlier parts of this topic, I thought I would tell you that today, as I looked at Doi Suthep, her head shrouded in clouds, I could have sworn that I saw hurry-home drops on her cheeks. They could have been meant only for you, so on behalf of Doi Suthep, as well as the rest of us, please do hurry home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eek Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Now, see, i just had a feeling ms Poupée was not the culprit! Also as with UG's cats, my kitties too used to make a big fuss when they caught something. Often they would bring in something live. But, if it was killed, they would definitely have messed it up a bit. Usually Id get some high pitched meowing noise which was unique to other mews announcing they have brought in something delicious for me. ------ Uhh..Rasseru..your favorite poem is..um... um... nope, nvm, i have no words. o.o ------ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsieurHulot Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Uhh..Rasseru..your favorite poem is..um... um... nope, nvm, i have no words. o.o You didn't like his favourite poem but, maybe, who knows, you will appreciate the runner-up. It's called Crow's Nerve Fails. It's also a pretty good poem. Crow, feeling his brain slip, Finds his every feather the fossil of a murder. Who murdered all these? These living dead, that root in his nerves and his blood Till he is visibly black? How can he fly from his feathers? And why have they homed on him? Is he the archive of their accusations? Or their ghostly purpose, their pining vengeance? Or their unforgiven prisoner? He cannot be forgiven. His prison is the earth. Clothed in his conviction, Trying to remember his crimes Heavily he flies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
