Cat and Dog
a fable

The Cat woke up in her tree and took a long stretch before looking around. The sun rose over there and that was right. Birds, delicious birds, flew over there, and that was right. The Dog was sniffing under her tree, and that was wrong.

She sat on her branch and cleaned first her paws and then used her paws to clean her face. She looked again. Yes, he was still there, snuffling and whuffling like a dog-shaped vacuum cleaner. She shuddered to think of it. And so she washed some more.

The True Meaning of Boxing Day

Submitted by on

December 26th is traditionally the holiday known as Boxing Day in most of the English-speaking world. In the US, it's a minor moment for after Christmas sales but elsewhere it may rival Black Friday for the retail world.

But originally, Boxing Day was when wealthy people gave gifts to servants, tradesmen and charities. It became a time for people to think of others less fortunate than themselves before morphing into a bargain-hunting monument to personal consumerism.

I wrote this with Ellen's permission almost twenty years ago. It's on Ellen's site, and I think it was on Classic BC. Now it's here. It's almost a Christmas story of sorts.

I had a weird dream about working on a series of kid's books. They were illustrated and I wish I could draw like that. Some of it looked a lot like Brad Guigar's art on Evil, Inc.

One of the books was about a young owl discovering things. It was called, "Nobody Really Likes Liver."
