Happiness is a warm lap

Somebody said, regarding a prior story, that everything sucks and we need more cat photos to keep our sanity. So here we go: Yes, the world sucks. But the curmudgeonly Mencken allows himself to forget for a few seconds that he hates everyone and everything, thanks to the kindness of a stranger's lap and an ear massage...

    I am always amazed at some of the horribly contorted positions cats can get into... yet they always look so darned comfortable.

    Ahh, thanks, I needed that. Bet you didn't know your cats had a fan-base! :-) It's good to be a cat. A warm lap, a little shrimp and cream, and life is good. If only we could solve the world's problems the same way.

    Aw! That's the way a kitty should be. Mencken looks so very content!

    The household cat master. Although, I'm pretty sure he's a penguin masquerading as a cat....

Ground rules: Comments that consist solely of insults, fact-free talking points, are off-topic, or simply spam the same argument over and over will be deleted. The penguin is the only one allowed to be an ass here. All viewpoints, however, are welcomed, even if I disagree vehemently with you.

WARNING: You are entitled to create your own arguments, but you are NOT entitled to create your own facts. If you spew scientific denialism, or insist that the sky is purple, or otherwise insist that your made-up universe of pink unicorns and cotton candy trees is "real", well -- expect the banhammer.
