Fortunately, she eats       everything. The cat stole (and ate) a fast food fry once. In a pinch,       I'd bet that the most picky cats would stop turning up their noses when       they are hungry.              > The original flavor of Monster energy drink has been out of stock everywhere       for months.              No offense, but that sounds like a good thing.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
