Cat Brains......

Once again, ursulav makes people laugh and causes herself to be in metaquotes, damaging a lot of keyboards in the process......

And with some of the *really* stupid cats I've known, I can *so* see this......

"My attempts to get a good night's sleep were in no way enhanced by Athena's decision to beat a mouse to death under my side of the bed at about 6 AM.

She's been getting more and more successful at mousing lately. I don't know how. My mental vision of the inside of Athena's head is a kind of vaulted bone cathedral, columns of mandible and cheekbone soaring upwards to the arching buttresses of sinus cavities, cobalt light streaming in through two rose window eyes, the floor cleft by irregular stairways of palate and spine. It's an open, airy place, in which the lone brain cell, clad in tiny monkish robes, solemnly reads out the liturgy, and paces through the vast emptiness, lighting tiny synapse-torches and praying to the God of Cat Brains* and hoping in quiet desperation that some day they'll send him an acolyte.

And yet, somehow...she catches mice. Go figure.

*A deity which makes atheism easy"

Side effect of the rain......

Driving in Doha is usually an adventure in "what the hell?" to begin with. You're usually doing well to see people actually *staying* in their lanes, and it's not unusual to have a three-lane entry to a roundabout with five cars across it. Or have cars driving on the sidewalks, shoulders, or medians to get around the traffic.

Which is why I was so amused to see a big black shiny Hummer 2 (with a three digit plate) this morning - stuck in the mud.

Also amused to see these big huge SUV's slowing down to under 5 kmh and inch their way around puddles like they were afraid their vehicle would melt if it hit the puddle.
