Default Cats, Computers, and SEIV

I just lost another game of "Draw Blood" with my female tabby. You know the game, you tease the kitty with something that looks playful and in return you get a sharp claw stuck inbetween your finger nail and the skin of your finger. The kind of minor injury that just hurts like hell.

Well any ways, like I was saying, I after loosing another round of "draw Blood" I descided to fire up the old PC and play a test game of the STM.

But before I could do this I had to "dump out" my key board as it was full of cat hair and well flea poop.

Evidance that my cat has once again been sleeping on my key board.

So I do the deed and get the key board operation, fire up the mod and start to play and wouldn't you know it, thawk! A white phaw hits the monitor right were the Romulan Warbird was at. Have you ever wondered what a cat is looking at when it stares off into thin air and acts as if it is watching something? Well I have figured it out, they are staring at invisible Romulan Warbirds.



Play SEIV for a while then close your eyes. What do you see?

LOL...

I think you can put a KB in the dish washer (but not on high temp dry).

If you know cats at all, they like to "touch" or lay on things they know belong to their humans. And, if they want attention, they will lay in what they consider to be the best line of sight of you. If you spend your life on the KB, then very near there. Like my cat used to do before he died (a Siamese), he got tired of watching my fingers dance on the KB instead of him and reached out to paw at the KB as well.

PS: This forum must be where your electronic friends are...you share so many life experiences here. Kinda nice (assuming I am correct).

Tom is part Siamese, and he thinks we (the family) are all here to serve his every whims. I really get the brunt of the abuse at around 4 am every morning. He does climb onto my keyboard when he feels that I should be petting him. To relieve this problem I take him into the living room and turn on the TV and DVD player. If there is no disk in it will start to �bounce� this little logo across the screen, you know like some of the screen savers on a computer. This will usually work for about an hour or so, I even video taped it so that my wife could see him.

well, i don't think the cat is lying on the kb, but that's only becuase it isn't to comfortable.

but she does go to sleep in the second chair when i'm up late and everyone else is asleep.

Currently the upload feature for Shrapnel is down. You will have to find some webspace or someone to host the picture for you and link from there.
