RIBE!

There was an incident a few years ago. The Bulls were killing the Knicks, scrubs were playing out the clock, and the fans were screaming at them to score 100 points for free Big Macs. They took a ton of shots, Knicks took offense and they tried to fight some Bulls players.

thats some good animation

the cat came as a concession to the relationship, ftr, but Ive grown to like them.
except when Im cleaning the litter box.

by e-gus on Mar 19, 2009 4:28 PM CDT up reply actions  

My boyfriend's sentiments exactly....he adores Monster now, but it took a while...

That’s the thing – most non-cat-owners have no idea of the charming personality quirks of a cat. They are funny as hell.
And they figure since a cat doesn’t immediately show interest in them or roll over or fetch on command, it’s a worthless animal.

Cats are selective…I identify with that. I love dogs, but your average dog will respond to anybody (even though they are loyal to one or two).

The litter box is the one argument against cats, I agree. But mine is trained to go outside.
And in the rare event that he is sick (like, diarrhea sick) and has to go in the middle of the night, he goes in the sink/tub!!!
Not even on the carpet, which would be an epic pain in my ass! The smart little bastard uses a ceramic arena!

Plus, he comes when I call him, he follows me around like a dog, and he hunts and kills mice around our very “natural” property.

Heyman swells Becks' head even further:

3. Gordon Beckham, White Sox shortstop. "Every time he comes up, he seems to hit a bomb,‘’ says one scout. Last year’s No. 1 draft choice has played so well (seven extra-base hits, .625 slugging) that he moved himself into conversations about second base, even with the favorite for that position, Chris Getz (.364), playing very well there, as well. Looks like a gem.

while 815 and jim are looking good,

i am not.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – After considering Josh Fields and Brian Anderson for the leadoff spot against left-handed pitchers, White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen wasn’t so eager to try Alexei Ramirez at the top.

“Right now, it’s still early to put Alexei there,” Guillen said Thursday after a 6-4 loss to San Francisco at Scottsdale Stadium. “He’s not in the picture right now to be there. Maybe against lefties during the season, maybe we will do that. I’d rather have Alexei as an RBI guy. He is pretty good with people on base, and I don’t want to take the opportunity away from him.”
