A "Sammy" Friday

I am Sammy, and all you nice folks can call me “King” Sammy.

The “Man” conceded I could post today as it was a fine piece of negotiations that was accomplished to talk me into this. I understand that Fred the Cat also posts on Fridays, and you may want to check him out also. However, the man thought he was being smart, and upgraded a bunch of things and then found out his capabilities to leave comments at old blogger sites is limited. Between you and I, this is probably a good thing????

On my nocturnal visits, I have noticed that people are mentioning about person of the year, and it should really be Al Gore. He has gone thru a lot, he has not fully understood why he lost the his election, but let us just say, he lost so he could focus his energies where they needed to be focused – on the environment. That is going to be his legacy. But, my subjects and the human that I own, want me talk about how all my friends will be impacted. I am not an alarmist, as I have been around a while. With nine lives, one gets lots of time to see the bigger picture. The Great planet Earth will go on, and my friends will be around a long time, as we have learned to adapt to what comes our way. Jesus, Budda, Gandhi, King Sam the 1st, all basically said the same thing. Go with the flow, be passers by! You humans thou have forgotten all of this, and insist on trying to control everything. Even the times you go to poop!

Talking about poop, you humans need to watch what you eat. I have heard the “man” and others complain about stinkin’ cat poop, and let me inform you your poop stinks a whole lot worse. You would never sneak up on a mouse smelling like that. Phewwee! You folks can really emit some noxious odors and it is because of loosing the ability to listen to your body and eat correctly. I know some of my subjects will leave a room rather quickly once the human emitting orifice starts working. Some of the things you folks eat are downright disgusting. I really think you eat it, so you can raise a bigger stink and get noticed all the more. And then you laugh like it is a big joke. Isn’t that kind of being narcissistic in some ways? Speaking of narcissistic , EOTR had a nice discussion on this, and the “man” even took the test. He came up NA, and kind of chuckled about it. Something about all people being childish at times.

Talking about a joke and surprised looks. A Maine Coon legend says that our ancestors are the lynx and the house cat. I wish I could have seen that courtship! Who was pa, and who was ma?

But speaking of ships, our family traveled on ships to keep vermin under control. The vermin are my chosen cuisine of rats and mice. Mighty tasty!! Much better than this fake food I get to eat. Anyhoo, I digress, we are controlling mice and rats on ships, and the rats and mice learn that to escape us, they go deep into the holds of the ship where water is leaking in, and they are safe there. This goes on for a while, and my ancestors, my great–great-great grandfather is getting mighty hungry. He is watching the mice swim in the water, and he decides that it is better to join them than chose to stay put and starve. He enters the water and teaches himself to swim, then he teaches the other cats on board to swim, and one fine day, the mice run to the water and start swimming away thinking they are safe. Only to their surprise, they see the Maine Coon’s swimming right beside them with teeth bared for dinner. Those mice and rats were never safe again. And that is why; we will survive, as we are adaptable.

Say, the “man” had a birthday gift given to him last spring. It was a numerology reading, and it said he was older than dirt! No poop! He was also a nun in an earlier life, a successful business man several times, a Buddhist monk, a neglected wife, and his totem is a tortoise. He is supposed to make decisions slow and steady. And he is being slow! And he is supposed to get in touch with his heart this lifetime. Maybe that is what the other blog of his is about.


Meooowoooooooooo…………………….. I have had some visitors leave some might fine comments. Vesper and Ruby certainly know how to make a cat purr and think happy thoughts. If it wasn’t for the old “man’s” rules!

See ya next Friday………………
