The Cat Came Back

After a five-month break, America's favorite funny little catman is back. At the moment, he's shaking off the snow from a two-week vacation "up north", which consisted entirely of receiving a Bear Grylls Survival Jacket for Christmas, which he routinely wears around his apartment as he frets about whether or not to keep it. On the one hand, the jacket is extremely warm; on the other hand, it's already seventy degrees in his apartment, presumably the only place the jacket will ever be worn. 

Stay tuned to see how this plays out and welcome back to Your Daily Groodbud, home to the original Catman 20/20 Flash.

Catman and the Bee


Catman: bee guy excavating some rocks outside - could be cool for us to check that out
J: what do you mean - bee guy?
Catman: guy who is like a bee
Catman: is not a bee
Catman: but is like a bee
Catman: you want to check that out?
J: I guess. I dont know what you mean.
Catman: is a bee
Catman: type thing
Catman: making something out of the rocks
J: what the f are you talking about?
Catman: the bee
J: what fing bee man?
Catman: the one i saw yesterday. he's excavating some rocks.
J: I dont know what the f you're talking about
Catman: :(
J: just tell me what you want me to do
Catman: you want to see a bee?
J: an actual bee?
Catman: yea
J: sure

There's a window in the coffee station on the first floor. It's hard to see anything out of it with the fridge in the way. A couple of days ago the Catman claims he saw a bee through the window, a bee which was tunneling into some loose rocks. He explained to me that he had watched the bee fly into the tunnel, grab a rock with his front claws and then back slowly out of the tunnel - there wasn't enough space in the tunnel to turn around yet (presumably, this was one of the things the bee was working on). He said he's been going back every day or so to check on the bee and see how his tunnel is progressing.

It took me ten minutes to grasp what he was talking about (see above), and when we finally went down there the bee was gone. I asked him why he thought a bee might be building a tunnel if it already lived in a hive and he said it's nice to have some alone time sometimes.

Charting a new course in Catland

There's no doubt the fantastical world that J and the Catman exist in is large, but is it infinite? There has been a great deal of debate on it, but after today, I think we can safely conclude it has bounds. For your reading pleasure, I present Centaur Dave.

J: if Centaur Dave existed I would hop on his back and ride into the sunset right now.
Catman: haha
J: I'd always ride him bareback
J: barebutt on bareback
J: Centaur Dave represents absolute freedom to me
Catman: --

After lunch:
J: Have you seen Centaur Dave around here?
J: I think I may have left him untethered
J: Where is Centaur Dave?
Catman: nah
J: You don't like Centaur Dave much?
J: d?
Catman: ?
J: You don't like Centaur Dave much?
Catman: nah
