Aw, this is my fav xkcd…so true. When I was little I´d even read books outloud to my cats, that´s how much time I spent talking to them.

Who´s a cute kitty?
You are! You are!

anner -

No, no, no, that’s TENORS.

Whatever you heard about FatBoy – it’s probably true.

Teddy Tahu Rhodes – good taste, girl! Yum.

kristabell — it’s all because of meg’s fantastic wit!

hrh — ok, i just put together that we have ratties AND opera in common. soprano, you know…all that air in my head.

i’ve heard some pretty icky stories about pavarotti.

i see teddy tahu rhodes has been at SFO. i heard him in Peter Grimes at the Met last season. we have the same last name, so i like to imagine we’re distant cousins. the kind that can sing duets together and then make out.

By the way, rats like being sung to in the car, on the way to the V-E-T. Seems to calm them down.

Anner – I love the Cat Duet. Check out the Monserrat Caballe YouTube version!! (Oh, and Pavarotti was Not a Nice Person At All.)

No need to fear your confession here, Lise. We’re all here because we love animals, and our animals tolerate our unconventional approaches to their care because they hear the love in our voices along with the lunacy. That makes it all okay.

hrh — he’s my favorite of that generation of tenors. such an multi-faceted, earthy, heart-wrenching sound! yes, pavarotti had a beautiful voice, but it didn’t have depth and character, and the only emotion he seemed to portray was “i have such a beautiful voice!”

Anner – Oh, and I have met Placido, he’s wonderful and a true gentleman.
