cats are still gone… :-(

by

The cats went out at 16:00 yesterday, and we’ve seen nothing of them since. I’m worried sick. I’ve slept on the couch tonight, just to be able to hear them if they’d show up and would want to come in. At 02:30 there was a cat on the porch looking in, that looked like Cujo. … Read more

by

Found this in Usenet group rec.sport.hockey: Every phreakin night Gary Bettman wakes up in a cold sweat with his eyes bugging out of his head. Gary suffers through the agonizing recurring nightmare of an all-Canada Stanley Cup Final.

I still don’t know what to think or say, and it’s been almost an hour since the miracle ended.
