Saying Goodbye To Mother

This came via Email from a friend. Pity the poor cat!

We were dressed and ready to go out for the New Years Eve Party. We
turned on a night light, turned the answering machine on, covered our
pet parakeet and put the cat in the backyard.

We phoned the local cab company and requested a taxi.. The taxi arrived
and we opened the front door to leave the house. The cat we’d put out,
scooted back into the house. We didn't want the cat shut in the house
because she always tries to eat the bird.

My wife went out to the taxi, while I went inside to get the cat. The
cat ran upstairs, with me in hot pursuit. Waiting in the cab, my wife
didn't want the driver to know that the house would be empty for the
night. So she explained to the taxi driver that I would be out soon,
'He's just going upstairs to say goodbye to my mother,' she told him.

A few minutes later, I got into the cab. 'Sorry I took so long,' I said,
as we drove away. 'The stupid bitch was hiding under the bed. I had to
poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out! She tried to take
off, so I grabbed her by the neck. Then, I had to wrap her in a blanket
to keep her from scratching me. But it worked! I hauled her fat ass
downstairs and threw her out into the back yard!'

The cab driver hit a parked car.

Not a good idea to leave a cat outside on New Years Eve, Fourth of July, or Halloween night. I'd have scratched the hell out of him, too.

I'm a mother-in-law and I was laughing.

Barbi - I suspect it wasn't a true story. (You seemed worried.)

Cats are cool - I left my bedroom window so he could come and go as he pleased. Everything was good - he even chased away 2 raccoons that prowled around behind my apt. Dogs - well - they're good too!

I suspected the story was fiction too. And I do worry about cats. That's why I don't have one ~ they don't stay in the yard! Okay, I'll unfurrow my brow now.

You can unfurrow on your own!!!! People pay good money to have that done.

Can somebody sum up this post in five words or less? I can't read all that. Have pity on me. I have ADD after all!! (Yep. Using the ADD card. I plan to get lots of mileage out of this.)

There ya go, Chickie! You can skip over stuff you don't like, drop whatever you're doing and fly off to do something else (leaving the mess for someone else to clean up), spend all your time on whatever catches your fancy whether it's relevant or not ... the ADD card is your ticket to ride! Sounds ever so much more useful than this damned SUBTRACT card I've been carryin' around all this time ...

This ADD card is an unlimited, no-payback, CREDIT CARD!!! Tain't no bank as issues cards like that!! Any credit cards I ever heard of are like Barb sez: all SUBTRACT cards that let you have whatever you want at first, then, alas, take away all you got and then some.

Where can I get me an ADD card?
