| I believe the quote goes more like -
"If cats and man were crossed it would vastly improve man but
degrade the cat."
A man after my own heart!!! I studied German when I was in
Jr & Sr High school and once got to read a hysterical essay Twain
had written called: "That awful German language."

| In June's issue of Cat Fancy, they have a comic with "Pookie" regarding
the same Mark Twain saying. In the first frame, it shows Pookie
reading the quote and the second frame, she has her head turned
and she's smiling. Anyone else see it?

| Lisa, I'd be glad to. I think it's Pookie, I'll check tonight and
bring it in tomorrow. I'm a temp, and don't deal with the mail
at all (except electronically ofcouse) so tell me a way to do it,
address, etc. (do you guys have inter-office envelopes?)

3620.7 | Before HRH contacts AJP, Esq about a defamation suit... | VAXWRK::SKALTSIS | Deb | Tue May 22 1990 12:52 | 3 |

BTW I think that Mark Twain "rented" the kittens when
he vacationed or travelled. That way they already had a
loving home to return to when he left the area.
Just my $.02

3620.9 | Oh Damn!! | ELMAGO::RSTOLL | If it ain't one thing, it's another | Tue May 22 1990 13:33 | 6 |
| Lisa, ya know Deb is right....I think it is Ah Poo. I knew it was
something with a "P" in it. I am so sorry. Do you still want the
photocopy??

3620.10 | one ringy-dingy.. | AIMHI::MCCURDY | | Tue May 22 1990 13:57 | 6 |
| I did see that... but I can assure you all that HRH probably
agrees with the statement.. Deb,How is AJP?.. rumor around
around my house,., is that HRH has convinced him to install
his own private telephone line at his residence, as well as in
the "law office"..

Thanks!

3620.12 | Ah, come on! | ELMAGO::RSTOLL | If it ain't one thing, it's another | Wed May 23 1990 10:19 | 5 |
| Lisa, you make me feel bad for being a air-head. How about if I
send you the whole issue. I have read it and if I need any info
from it, I can just ask you.

| Hey, don't worry - we all suffer from mental aberrations now and
again ;-)
A copy of the caroon is just fine, I don't want to deprive you of
the whole of your magazine!! Uggh! Just read this back - I meant
carToon!
Lisa plus Pookie who may not be famous but is *GREAT* anyway!

3620.15 | Point-to-point connections eliminate the need to dial | VAXWRK::SKALTSIS | Deb | Wed May 23 1990 14:06 | 15 |
| re: .10
Actually, it is a point-to-point connection; should HRH pick it up, it
will ring at Stately Pussycat Manner (something like the hotline
connection between The police comm of Gotham City and Batman, and the
similar connection between the White House and the Kremlin). AJP, Esq is
doing fine, thank you. I was on vactation last week and walked into the
kitchen without feeding him almost 100 times so he is currently working
on suing me for willful neglect and cruelty. By the way; Pookie didn't
"convince him" to have it installed. She had it installed as a surprize
gift for him (I'm sure you will be getting the bill any day now).

re: 16
You should thank HRH for Lil's dainty gift. Lily was really
thrilled with it and asked to use it last night. I told her
it was for show and not for every day use. She was NOT pleased
with that reply. I told her that HRH was much more a lady than
she, and Lil really couldn't understand why I felt that way.
Those that know Lil will understand - I just got her black
motorcycle jacket back from the cleaner - she spilled mustard
on the front when she was chowing those hot dogs at the ball game !
She ain't no lady - she's Tiger Lily !!

3620.18 | WHOOPS.. | AIMHI::MCCURDY | | Thu May 24 1990 13:15 | 40 |
| E.T, Thank you for "tea" on Sunday.. I am glad that Lil
liked her "tea cup".. speaking of tea, Last nite I was having
nice cup of tea, along with some Pepperidge Farm cookies..
HRH was " lounging on the chair with me , Happy
was on the sofa, Preschie was siiting on my shoulder..
As all,of you know pepperirdge cookies usually have 4
cokies in a "cupcake type holder.." I had taken one
of the "holder out of bag with 4 cookies in it,
I had just finished the last of them, when Preschie
spotted the empty holder.. she jumped on.. went over
to Happy.. they "conversed" for abit.. then they both returned
\to the chair.. HRH was sound asleep.. well the next thing I know
both of them grabbed the "holder" and were tugging on it.. HRH
awoke went over to break up the "BRAWL.. when the holder "capsized.."
and we had 3 very surprised furfaces.. the cookies I were eating had
powdered suggar on them, and YUP , there was some residue in the cup..
and the 3 of them very covered.. "powdered sugar all over those
little faces.. Preshie and Happy "licked it off". HRH was OUTRAGED..
she was so "upset.. she was hyperventilating.. so Mummy
picked her up.. and we wne to get cleaned .. of course by this time,,
the other two has finished liccking themselves off,, they decided
to "aid" HRH in getting cleaned up,, WELL.. HRH felt
that was "unecessary", QUITE UNNECESSARY,, thank you..
Pookie was furious.. she jumped in the bathtub.. and of course
they jumped in after her,, I picked up
Happy and Preschie and suggested that they go play for awhile,
while I calmed Pookie down.. while continued to wash her face
and paws.. the next thing I know.. she is out of the tub..
and she was "attempting to drag her "portable bath tub out of
the linen closet. so Mummy gave her a bubble bath at 10 pm..
, but she was still "glaring" that Preschie and Happy..
whne I went to bed. I was still laughing this morning..!!!
She was furious, but I must admit , dshe looked so funny
with powdered sugar all over her face and paws,, and Preschie
and Happy,, thought .,.. GEE Mom.. great stuff!!!.. now where is
the rest of that "human treat".. yummy.. Happy was soo
funny.. she was so laidback about the whole thing, and
so was Preschie.. .kinda like OH well.., but I do suspect
that Happy might have been "laughing under her ruff at HRH..
Kate..

3620.19 | Time to try out the CATPHONE... | FENNEL::SPINGLER | | Thu May 24 1990 17:22 | 9 |

Somehow I can easily picture Happy and Prechie with faces full of
powdered sugar, but HRH? That image takes some congering!!! :-)
Argus...Oh Argus, have you a Lawsuit handy!
Feline Sweet!
Sue, Who won't tell Panther or Spot about HRH's little adventure!

3620.20 | THANKS! | XNOGOV::LISA | Only 11 days to go ... | Fri Jun 01 1990 11:35 | 12 |
| Robyn,
I just got the photocopy! *THANKS!* Could you (or anybody) post
the details of the magazine. I'd like to try and order it over
here! Should be possible, I hope!
Thanks again ( Ilove getting post! )
Lisa plus the nearly famous Pookie!
|
3620.21 | Lisa, How About This?? | ELMAGO::RSTOLL | If it ain't one thing, it's another | Fri Jun 01 1990 16:05 | 8 |
| Why don't I just send you one of the ordering forms from the magazine
itself. I'll put it in one of those inter-office envelopes with
the string......hmmm, can I have your address again?? Meanwhile,
I'll look in the magazine to see if they have any problem shipping
to the UK. Hope not, it's a great magazine and between Cat Fancy
and this file, I have gotten alot of info on illness, etc.
Robyn, Rocky and Smokey (Hi Pookie ;-) )
|
3620.22 | Yes - Yes - YES! | XNOGOV::LISA | Can't wait for Sunday! | Mon Jun 04 1990 10:30 | 12 |
| Robyn,
Thanks - that sounds like a good idea! My mail stop is
Lisa Allgood REO2 FM/9.
I showed the photo copy to Rob, my fiance, and he wants to see more
too!
Keeping my eyes on the mail...
Lisa plus Pookie.

3620.23 | It's on the way.....!!! | ELMAGO::RSTOLL | If it ain't one thing, it's another | Mon Jun 04 1990 11:32 | 15 |
| Lisa,
Putting it in the mail today. I'm looking at the order form now
and the prices are 24 issues for $36.00 and 12 issues for $21.97
but below in (ofcourse) small print reads "Canada add $4.00 per
year postage; Other Countries add $8.00 per year. International
Money Order please".
Anyway, it's on the way. It really is a great magazine ;-)
BTW, what happens Sunday??????
Robyn, Rocky, & Smokey

3620.24 | Me Too, Please... | SCCAT::STEINBECK | Believing Is Seeing-Not The Reverse | Mon Jun 04 1990 14:09 | 13 |
| Robyn,
Would you send me a order form for Cat Fancy when you get one,
if it wouldn't be too much trouble. I've seen the magazine at the
vets but I never thought to order one for myself and after reading
this note, it seems like a good idea. If you don't have one right
now (since I know you are sending one to Lisa), I wouldn't mind
waiting until your next issue arrives.
My mail stop is:
Nancy Steinbeck WR032-2/T7
Thanks in advance
Nancy

3620.25 | On it's way!!! | ELMAGO::RSTOLL | If it ain't one thing, it's another | Mon Jun 04 1990 14:16 | 8 |
| Nancy,
No problem, I have *thousands* of issues. I can just take one out
of last month's issue and I'll send it along tomorrow.
Your Friendly Cat Fancy Pusher,
Robyn
|
3620.26 | Thank you, thank you! | SCCAT::STEINBECK | Believing Is Seeing-Not The Reverse | Mon Jun 04 1990 14:40 | 6 |
| Robyn,
I know I said "thanks in advance" but I couldn't resist saying
it again. This is SO nice of you. Tiger and I are looking forward
to it and I know we will love it.
Nancy
|
3620.27 | ... only 5 days ;-) | XNOGOV::LISA | Can't wait for Sunday! | Tue Jun 05 1990 05:35 | 14 |

3620.28 | Nancy & Lisa-watch for mail | ELMAGO::RSTOLL | If it ain't one thing, it's another | Tue Jun 05 1990 11:28 | 9 |

The cat is in the mail (fancy) that is. Seriously, let me know

new friend intro. It's so much fun having two of them. Wish I could
have more...
