The Threatdown is Back!
Devoted readers may remember that I love The Colbert Report. Thank goodness the writers' strike is over (mostly because I'm selfish and nothing is more important that serving my need for comedy), and "The Threatdown" returned last night. The tie-in to bears was, as usual, skillfully done. (If you click on the "bears" link, go to the bottom of the page to find out why bears are so threatening.) However, the video for the Starbucks threat was hysterically funny. To view that, click on the "Threatdown" link above; then click on "play" for the Starbucks threat.

KISSA:
ESL ESL THE UPDATE ESL ESL ESL ESL Wednesdays are The Professor's late nights for teaching. When he returned home last night, The Professor came into the kitchen from the garage laughing. (Believe me. That's a very unusual mood for him after teaching until 9:45 p.m.) Kissa had left us another present by the kitchen door. Only this time, practically unbelievably, it was an almost six-inch-long fish. Yes, a fish!
There is still ice, albeit more and more slushy, covering the lake on the cove. How did Kissa find a spot by the sloping, rocky shore with open water? Also, where was it shallow enough for Kissa to even feel comfortable enough to lean over the lake and bat her paw into the water? She must have caught the fish herself because cats don't seem to want to have anything to do with carrion, so The Professor and I are almost certain this wasn't a dead fish Kissa found near the shore.
Kissa is about nine months old now; she's certainly becoming more and more adventurous. I hope it doesn't get her into trouble.
My favorite Kissa habit is the way she follows me to the mailbox up the street. She stops every twenty feet or so as we walk along the sidewalk, so I can rub her chin and tummy. I love Kissa's affectionate nature. If I weren't allergic to her, I would actually be inclined to let her into the house on purpose.
