WOW! It’s all cats and weather and Bush-bashing (hey baby, wanna do some Bush-bashing?). There’s 1920’s style death rays in here, swashing, buckling, a few people over there swashbuckling (perverts), in this corner we have world-conquering wannabes looking for cohorts and sidekicks; and over there we have a few people pointing vaguely and muttering different variations of “What the hell is that!” for days on end. Yep. Pretty cool thread. I rock. ---

I dunno, it kinda seems to be lacking grape colored text, and short field trips to deep parts of the ocean and Rio. I also think you’ve committed a mortal sin by mentioning cats in the OP without providing any pictures. I give it an 9 out of 10, but it’s improving, especially since there is now pie. ---
