This is my first post in a while that didn’t completely revolve around pictures of Sylvester. I recently signed up for Sirius satellite radio. I signed up for all the music choices, but it’s nice because I can occasionally listen to talk radio if I want to.

The other day I started scrolling through the talk radio choices, and even though I’m not normally a Howard Stern listener, I landed there because of what I heard.

Howard’s wife Beth was on the show that morning talking about rescuing wildlife. Soon the conversation turned to their fund raising efforts with the North Shore Animal League. Beth and Howard created a 2012 calendar, with all proceeds going to the North Shore Animal League. They mentioned that their cats were in the calendar with Beth. As they talked about how they adopted their cats from the shelter, I began to wonder if any of their cats were black cats. Soon, Howard said that their cat Walter is a black cat. He then added the line that got me to buy the calendar:

“People won’t adopt black cats, because they’re superstitious, they’re assholes.”

Thanks Howard, I couldn’t have said it better myself. (ok, I might not have been so blunt)
