Don't proffer sympathy to the mentally ill. It is a bottomless pit. I stole that one from Burroughs. I still haven't gotten over that. Avoid people who live in a home that has more than two cats per person.
Cats are weird.
I don't care what anyone else says. And a high cat to people ratio changes the personality of every human who spends more than three hours a week with them. The times I've spent around a bunch of cats have made me jumpy and their constant cleaning ritual just rubs in the fact that I'd be so much happier if I could only lick myself. If you're going to shoot someone famous, plan an escape route. Otherwise you'll end up like Jack Ruby, John Hinkley, and Squeaky Fromme.
