Answer to your 2nd question first...cats identical twins or cloned:):) Know you're a cat person. This Capt not being a cat person is reminded of happening at the old house...
Neighbors had a feral cat around all year into winter. Car parked in driveway. One morning daughter went out to start car and thought she heard a funny noise when she turned the key. (Assume the same sound kittens make when rigged and cast into the surf)...(legal post). Told her dad. He opened hood to look for mechanical problems and found cat had gone onto engine block, probably night before, for warmth. And yes, it got too close, and was pulled into fan, explaining the noise the daughter heard. As dad tells the story the daughter was in tears as he unwound the cat innards from the fan shaft. Were apprx. 25 ft. long. Cat gut...yummy.
As for baggers...Learned in high school that you never went on a blind date w/o 2 paper bags. Should your date be so ugly you are embarrassed to be seen w/ her you put a bag over her head. But if she is "really" terribly ugly so much so that if her bag fell off she would turn you or others to stone, you have the second bag that you can put over your head to at least protect yourself!!
Unrelated...just had 4th instance of bank error in 6 weeks yesterday. Talkin face to face, not e mail or phone. Be careful out there.
(Btw, cat and bag and bank stories true.) Not "fake news!"
And...Tues. morning smelled skunk for the 1st time this year. Sure sign spring is around the corner. Can't be too soon. Last nites snow varied on North Coast from 2 - 10".
