Hey! Nice digs. Can’t wait for the first kitteh pics...

Don't know why, but an image search of "Vienna kitty" produced this:

How come I get the feeling that you were wondering how large an engine could be ensconced/shoehorned within the frame of that vehicle?

[Tax-chick]

Here's a shot of White Cat, who usually hangs out across the street from us. Cars would drive up, White Cat would give them That Look, and the cars would carefully drive around him.

Sheesh!

This one hasn’t even cooled down yet.

[sionnsar]

I need to get outta here!

You mustard get outta here, but mayo? And if you do, can you ketchup? Maybe you just need to chili out a bit (no, not going to do the wurst and call you a brat)! *\;^)

This one hasn’t even cooled down yet.

Yup. Hot diggity dog -- but it's also not a ZOT thread. We just appropriated it and Squawk 8888 will be (in)famous for the month of March.

[Darksheare]

LOL, you Cyber and I could carry that thing off with the occupants inside.

You’re on Price Is Right and Drew Carey says, “What d’ya do for a living up in Canada, Mikey?” I peel wieners, Drew. “Good for you. Wiener peeler. Hmmm. reminds me, folks, get your pets spayed or neutered.”

Funny - good writing...

[Tax-chick]

And a good thing, too, because a cat’s not going to run around on a wheel and power the thing the way hamsters would.

[Darksheare]

Squawk will survive.
*whispering* You will be alright, right?
They have GREAT recuperative powers!
Will we have to build the D-shearian Coffee Delivery System to ensure survival?

Coming home this afternoon in the humongous Gorm Mor, I saw somebody hanging out at the trash collection point. No idea why (though we do sometimes have bad actors come through our rural locale) until I glimpsed one of those little pug-like dogs in-between the cans and realized he must be a neighbor. Had to slow WAY to make sure the dog didn't run under Gorm Mor's tires.

Looking at your photo I would probably have to straddle White Cat, move very slow, and pray for the best.

When I was a boy I ran over a bird once (couldn't help it, it flew under my bicycle's front wheel). Not a nice experience.

Unlike LoM who, I guess following in the footsteps of her hunter father, bagged a pheasant with her car.

Three mouse power, and an extra nine volts from the glovebox expansion port.

"No more smokers. Is the next step no more Democrats? So the CEO of a Michigan company announced a no-more-smokers policy. ... If employers seek to control costs, improve morale, boost the company image and reduce workplace drama, why not refuse to hire ... Democrats? Democrats -- compared to Republicans -- on average are less affluent, more unhappy, more prone to anti-social behavior, more prone to self-destructive behavior, and more likely to have been shot at, robbed or burglarized. More of them see X-rated movies, more of them smoke, and they're less likely to be married and more likely to have separated or divorced. ... Poor smokers. Can't smoke in the office, can't smoke on the factory floor, can't smoke in a company car. You can't smoke in a restaurant. You can't go outside, down the street, down the ally or down the manhole. You gotta go three-and-a-half miles, you'll see a Denny's, make a right, if you come to an International House of Pancakes, you've gone too far. But take comfort. Things could be worse. You could be a smoker -- and a Democrat."

-- Larry Elder

Or, you could be a wiener peeler.

Wait, what?

Can’t wait for the first kitteh pics...

ARRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh... The pain, the pain. Wheel he ever get over the bun of it?

[glock rocks]

To be frank, I relish the thought.

I am less lucky: Four birds, three deer, two squirrels ... and a surprisingly flattened rabbit back in 1978 while St Ronnie was with me. But most of my hits have had no witnesses.

Had another deer run right into the side !! of the car as I was slowing/braking/swerving to get around him. And I was TRYING to miss him! He STILL hit me!

[Darksheare]

Deer 1: Harvested via 1990 Geo Metro
Deer 2: Harvested via 1989 VW Golf
Deer 3: Harvested via 1983 Subaru stationwagon.
And several near misses with other vehiles.
Close call on a coyote with a 1995 VW Jetta.
Tagged two robins who were fighting with the 1996 Jetta.
They bounced clean off the windshield.
Got an owl, it flew straight into me and I couldn’t avoid him.

[Darksheare]

Vehiles??
*groan*
