only the wisdom that is in it - and stop there;

down on a cold one anymore."
-- Mark Twain
"Of all G-d's creatures there is only one that
cannot be made the slave of the leash. That
one is the cat. If man could be crossed with the
cat it would improve man, but it would deteriorate
the cat."

"In order to keep a true perspective of one's
importance, everyone should have a dog that
