CATMAN 20/20 FLASH

The Catman enjoys a quiet moment over the weekend with one of his friends. I have a few photos of him hanging out with this dog, but most were taken in in the get to know you phase.

Looking at this picture got me thinking of a conversation I had with the Catman's Sister not too long after YDG.blogspot.com first rolled out.

Catman's Sister: I wanted to tell you have an amazing talent for making fun of my brother.

J: Fun with your brother.

Catman's Sister: And it's well written too.

J: Yeah -- I want to explore the bond that J and the Catman share. Hopefully its something that a lot of people can connect with.

Catman's Sister: it's given me a whole new perspective into the life of mr. schnookums.

J: is that your name for him?

Catman's sister: Yeah when I was little I wanted a dog but my parents said we got you a little brother instead, so I gave him a dog name.

I know it's not a good thing to run through alternate scenarios, to wonder "what if?" You've only got one life and you shouldn't spend it full of regret. Regardless, I can't help but wonder what if the Catman had been replaced with a dog named Mr. Schnookums? What could we say about a world where that was the case? Would it be a better place? Yeah, probably.
