shakatanyAs I wrote earlier I'm housesitting and they get hundreds of cable channels (and even so there's rarely anything I want to watch) including one called American Life which I've never heard of - is it new? Well last night I caught my all time favorite "Man from UNCLE" episode called the "Mad, Mad Tea Party Affair" (all the eps were called affairs though not of the romantic kind) with my darling Illya (Ducky Mallard to you young'uns) at the height of his yumminess. I've only seen this episode once since it first aired a looong time ago and it's still amusing though not as much as I remembered *sigh*. One of the guest stars was Zohra Lampert who would also be the guest star ten years later in my favorite "Kojak" episode "Queen of the Gypsies".
This inspired me to write a little parody of Oliver Herrick's "Gather Kittens while you may, Time brings only sorrow; And the Kittens of today Will be Old Cats tomorrow " (which itself was a parody of Robert Herrick's "To the Virgins, To Make Much of Time"):
Gather actors while you may,
Time brings only sorrow;
And the young hunks of today
Will be the geezers of tomorrow,
While I was googling for the correct quote I came across a couple of sites full of feline quotes and other goodies:
The Daily Mews
Kittens-Lair
