Immature Tuesday: Part 1 of 2

My friend, Amy, forwarded me this video with the comment "Cat unlikely to be adopted." The video is of an animal shelter worker holding and describing a cat, Pinky, the Pet of the Week.

After ten seconds, I knew what would happen. The guy's getting it in the balls. People don't send video clips of cats and men that end up snuggling together, unless the snuggling is the precursor for some claw-on-ball action. I still watched it, of course.

The video is like a microcosm of a summer action blockbuster. You know the good guys are going to win, and you can usually predict the whole movie after the first five minutes, but it's still fun to watch the debacle unfold.

Go ahead. Try not to watch the video. Stay at home for Episode III. Tell yourself you're going to accomplish something by 40. Many an empire were built on a foundation of lies.
