I am started to see actual cat vacuuming since (back in the 90s) ‘cat vacuuming’ was common in some Usenet writing circles. It described any procrastination you’d say was for a good purpose (reducing the cat hair to clean up later) (there is no way to reduce the cat hair to clean up later) that at least kept you from having to write.
Two in the US, but there’s another in the UK. My wife and I have been fortunate enough to ride them all.
The one in Rye Playland runs at the original design operating speed and it is quite the thrill ride. Cedar Point’s and Blackpool Pleasure Beach’s are good but not that daring. (Though Rye and Blackpool are less likely to have the racing mechanism working; I’ve never heard of Cedar Point’s being down.)
Ah, you know, I saw Melvwyn and the Lord of Ducks opening for Flint Eastwood. Great concert, always regretted not getting the t-shirt at the merch table.
And the joke within the joke is that the golf term ‘bogey’ comes from comparing your score to that of an imaginary, reference ‘bogus’ opponent. In the late 19th century it was the score you’d expect an average player to make on the hole, that is, par.
As equipment and technique improved the average player got a little better. So the bogey score ended up being one over par.
Ah, Gizmo sounds like my in-laws’ cat, who’s tiny and very curious about the rabbit that they sometimes pet-sit for us. They also have a small Jack-Chi who really wants to play with the rabbit who does not have an interest in playing back.
