well, all i know is that i read somewhere that cats are far more likely
than dogs to eat the bodies of their deceased owners if stuck in the house
with them after their demise.

This is definitely a myth. Rover will eat his late master/mistress just as
quickly as Tabby.

So am I but that doesn't change the facts.

cecil adams is the man, btw. the difference is a few days .. the cat waits
one, the dog several. i used to read the straight dope on my greyhound
bus trips to washington, d.c. back in the day. reading my quote above i
did state it incorrectly .. they both eat 'em. cats are just quicker on the
draw. eerily quick methinks.

I produce weird amounts of snot in all conditions at all times of the
year when I ride hard. I don't regard this as a major debility. Coping
is a bit like kissing: you just close one nostril and blow.

It sounds like your only dates are camels.

I was trying to make a reference to the Marilyn Monroe line "you just
put your lips together and blow," but from the responses either I was
too obscure or misunderstanding me was too much fun.

I can assure you, I do know how to kiss, and I have never dated a camel,

That's ok with me. If I'm dead and unable to take care of my pet, it
wouldn't bother me a bit if they had to eat me to stay alive. I realize
that my relatives might be a bit upset when they found out, but that's
how I feel.

Sounds to me like they're smarter -- better to eat before it goes
rotten.

Uh, Lauren Bacall. To Humphrey Bogart. I'm going to guess at the movie
from memory and will probably get it wrong, but here goes, "To Have
and Have Not."
