Hello Kitten

[Gopher]

I was thinking more on the lines as offering my services to you as a butler (and having the key to the wine cellar).

[kitten]

Why, certainly, provided you also plan to stock the wine cellar.  I'm afraid the position doesn't pay very well, though.  Does fifty cents a week sound reasonable to you?

[Gopher]

I will NOT accept that as payment, especially as I now know the REAL (as indicated by Purelife) value of 50c.

[kitten]

I forgot, I don't even have a pool, so I guess .50 is out of the question.  If the pay goes any higher I will have to take out a mortgage on the cat.

[Gopher]

Beggars can't be choosers.

[kitten]

But they can choose the size of the begging bowl.

[Gopher]

Not in the mood for begging bowls at the moment, the temperature here has just shot up to 80.

[kitten]

Life isn't fair!  I would love to have that sort of weather, where you would prefer something a little cooler.  Trade?

[Gopher]

With pleasure. I don't imagine it will last more than a couple of days though - and maybe not even as long as that as I have the next two days off.

  Busy here today, isn't it?

[kitten]

I'm glad to see things picking up again.  It had me worried for a while.  Have you managed to guess TehBorken's secret yet?

[Gopher]

No, but it could be he's running for president.

[kitten]

The States would never be the same if he did.

[Gopher]

HOORAY!

[kitten]

Lovely thought, isn't it?

[Gopher]

The stuff that dreams are made of.
