| Should have listened to music the other night while sorting. Instead I had the TV on. It was that goofy show on ABC. I think it's called "Wipeout". Anyways, as the hand sorter I am, I ended up laughing my copper into the zinc pile and the zincers into the copper pile. I'm sure this has never happened to anyone else...right? |

Not me...I don't have a TV. On the other hand, I live with two psychotic cats:
One drinks out of the toilet:

And her mother keeps perching at the front window waving the tail of death as she growls at the German Shepherd across the street, oblivious to the fact that she'd have to go through the window and the screen...from the second floor of the building:

On the other hand, she's probably narcoleptic:

Sorting while cats are spazzing out is much more challenging than ANY TV show, IMO. I wish they had opposable thumbs so they could help me sort! |

I have one of those as well. Mine is solid white and must weight 20 lbs! As I sit here typing she is sitting on top of the computer desk, flicking the tail o death, at a bird on the other side of the window! They play this game all the time. I think the bird is mocking her! |
Are you throwing that out? |

We have four--two that weigh over twenty with the heaviest weighing in now at 25 pounds. I am sure that they would love to help me sort my coins. However, I make certain to do it in an area that they can not access at the moment.
These brave felines mentioned above are displaying their aggressiveness to outside dogs, birds, etc, ONLY because they know their loving "dad" has their back and wouldn't let any harm come to them.

| So I guess my cat is not the only one who likes to drink from the toilet! |
