I have had enough of cats
 
The message m
from Tim Challenger "timothy(dot)challenger(at)apk(dot)at" contains
these words:

Also, they probably can't be
arsed to come around. You report a car theft, and they won't come round,
just give you a crime number for the insurance.


But that's just the way it works, isn't it? Letting the full-time car
thieves and other serious breakers of the peace get away, but coming round
to sort out the poor chap who doesn't even wear a loud shirt in a built up
area.


Well, if you were the dibble, which would you rather go and look for: a
gardener, or an indeterminate number of thieving abstrads?

The chilli isn't to give them a gippy tummy, which, you're probably right
they won't make the connection with. But it'll burn their noses and mouth
straight away, so they might well make the connection. And it lasts quite a
long time. Assuming they don't smell it first and just avoid it.


In another place someone was saying how much their cat enjoyed a good
hot curry.....

If the human brain were simple enough that we could understand it, we would
be so simple that we couldn't.
