jroy: Are you changing your name? I’m afraid I don’t watch Monk, so now I’ll never get to hear the glory that is the original theme song.
Michelle: Okay, just to clarify for the non-Canadians, Smarties there are not like Smarties here, right? Aren’t yours kind of like M&M’s? Because if so, then you are completely following protocol by separating them by color. That’s just the way it’s done.
shari: Yeah dogs have really big tongues. Cats have dainty tongues and don’t really splash when they drink. It’s like watching Katharine Hepburn sip martinis. Or something like that.
churlita: Ooh – I have flavah? Niiiiice!
mihow: I think it’s hilarious that so many people like to watch cats drink – I really thought I was alone on that one. And I love that drinking fountain! My cats would really be spoiled then!

Now that you mention it, I do the same thing. I watch my cats drink as well. Even if I’m totally into a TV show, I’ll stop and watch them drink.
Oh, and if you really want to make it fun, you should get one of these:

Mine freaking love it. And they lick the dome. It’s super cute.

Mainja’s right, you’re quirky. I’ve always envied “quirky”. So once again, you’ve established yourself firmly in the front of my “I wish I were like her” list.

Then, I start eating the one colour with the most smarties and so on, and so on until I’m left with lowest common smartie. Then I take one smartie from every colour left and eat them together so that no colour will ever feel like they were picked last.
Those poor red smarties. I don’t know what the hell Nestle was thinking when they started that whole “do you eat the red ones last?” marketing fiasco.
Giving all the other Smarties complexes, that’s what all always say.
Sincerely,
Michelle.
Who is saving the world from candy hate crimes, one Smartie at a time.
PS: I’ve only slept a few hours. I may disavow all knowledge of this comment tomorrow.

Not the new theme song sung by Randy Newman, but the old Jeff Beal one that is just two guitars. They did away with it, so now I have the wav file on my computer and I listen to it now and then. Pathetic.

And cats drinking water is just plain cute. I think we can agree that anyone who doesn’t like watching them is a weirdo.

Dave2: If you use Global Crossing for conference calls, then yes, we do have the exact same hold music. And I love that part where the loud DEE comes in.
serap: Hey – my cat does that too! She also only likes to lick the side of the glass, not the middle of the water. Weirdos.
kat: Well, if Winston were my cat, I would let him drink out of crystal champagne flutes. Cutest kitten in the whole world.
mainja: Ooh – thanks! Quirky I can deal with!
