Beeswax – The Ninja Cat Video (Scary)

We are introducing a new feature here at S&L, to raise our spirits in these times of tribulation.

So, on randomly occurring weekends, we will be posting hopefully humorous clips of things both political and not, from around the world.

Starting with this “Ninja Cat” clip from YouTube:

    Ninja Cat’s cousin Ceiling Cat … (maybe not safe for kids if you find the word masturbation unacceptable …)

    Great idea, SG. We do need to remember to laugh at truly funny things, not the truly stupid things coming out of Washington!

    I like it. Much needed in this time of the inmates running the asylum.

    Would have been much funnier had 3 or 4 timely cuts been made…when the camera shifts to the right; the black screen provided great cover for editing.

    Kitties seem to be the popular subject today, so here’s a cute YouTube video with a kitty and a Roomba that I hadn’t seen before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v.....-HM-rev-rn

      I’ve considered buying a Roomba just so I could teach one of my more adventurous cats how to ride it. There are a couple of videos showing cats (and a litter of kittens) going along for the ride.

      Unfortunately I have also been told Roombas don’t work well …

      We’ve had a Roomba for a number of years and really like it. It’s great for lazy people like us who don’t vacuum enough with a regular vac, but you do need to empty the dirt cup frequently. If you’re a picky housekeeper you prolly best not get one.

      We have three kitties, and all three of them are terrified of the Roomba. I don’t know how all those folks on YouTube got their cats to ride on one. Ours all head for the hills as soon as they hear the thing start up.

    Great addition.
    We need to shift our focus away from Tyrant Barry now and then.
    Thanks!

    This cat asks an important question:

    Ok, that was funny. I liked the last part, the music crescendo, then the cat runs away.

    My g/f had a pretty cool cat I paid for, then after several warnings not to let the cat out at night, she did, and it almost died. Then, after another warning, she called me and told me she let the cat out at night, and got squished by a car. “Are you mad at me?”

    > : / (twitching) “You won’t be mad if we break up will you?”

    We did, that was the last stupid straw…..

    Thanks for reading my blog!

    Tragedy

    Obama was visiting an elementary school today and when
    he visited one of the classes (4th grade I believe), they were in the middle of
    a discussion related to words and their meanings.

    The teacher asked the President if he would like to lead the class in the
    discussion of the word, “tragedy.” So our illustrious leader asks the class for
    an example of a tragedy.”

    One little boy stands up and offers, “If my best friend, who lives next door,
    was playing in the street and a car came along and ran over him, that would be a
    tragedy.”

    “No,” says Obama, “that would be an accident.”

    A little girl raises her hand. “If a school bus carrying fifty children drove
    off a cliff, killing everyone involved, that would be a tragedy.”

    “I’m afraid not,” explains Mr. President. “That’s what we would call a GREAT
    LOSS.”

    The room goes silent. No other children volunteer. President Obama searches
    the room. “Isn’t there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?”

    Finally, way in the back of the room, Little Johnny raises his hand. In a quiet
    voice he says, “If Air Force One, carrying Mr. Obama, Mrs. Clinton, and Nancy Pelosi was struck by a missile and blown up to smithereens, that would be a tragedy!”

    “Fantastic,” exclaims Obama, “that’s right. And can you tell me WHY that would
    be a tragedy?”

    “Well,” says Little Johnny, “because it wouldn’t be an accident, and it
    certainly would be no great loss!”
