Thank you Doc.  Unlike the rest of the jaded philistines around here, you and I can appreciate quality when we see it.

Of course not, everyone knows he lifted the idea wholesale from Phineas Batch the great Victorian Political cartoonist. This is difficult to prove now since much of his work has been lost but one of his classics which depicts Benjamin Disraeli as a small cat sitting on a cushion at Queen Vitoria's feet asking 'We May Have Empire Now Please?' has been preseved in some books on the public reaction to the Royal Titles Act and is used by many comic historians as evidence that Batch was the progenitor of the Laughing Cat archetype.

Can for Dorothy Parker, one of my literary heroes.  Pedro gave me a big DP collection for Christmas our first year together.  Oh man this brings back memories, like hearing an old Boston song on the radio.  You think, "Man, I used to be so into them.  I gotta dig out those old albums."  But you never do.  The memory is enough.

I thought we agreed there were too many young folks around for this sort of thing, and we'd keep it under wraps.

Wait, what?

Yes, I went there. I have no pride; I have no shame.

I knew when I typed that that there was something dirty about it, but I couldn't quite put my, um, finger on it, so to speak. 

Filthy bastard.
