you could go a little crazy now but that means you're sane. if you were really crazy you would act like everything is normal. and thank goodness for the cats of peace.

 There are two kinds of pets: the ones you choose and the ones that happen to you.

 Humans come in masses to swoon over the evanescent cherry blossoms. There are so many the traffic is forced to a stop to allow them to cross. I dread the future masses of pilgrims to come to swoon over the Obamachron. And we, if we are meant to stay, will look upon the masses from our window and be grateful we're still here, and not over there.

 There's something happening here. The animals know what it is. It's not about making the world a better place.
