You Are a Black Panther

You see through people. You understand others' motives and plans. You have a knack for predicting the future. You just know what people are going to do. People are attracted to you. You are naturally able to influence other people's thoughts. You have the charisma to be a beloved guru or dictator. It's all about how you handle it.

As per usual...
Kind of freaky.

My brother and I discovered that someone left the door open to our flat and we began looking high and low, in all his hidey holes, everywhere!

And we couldn't find him.

It was already dark so we couldn't look for too long outside which makes it so hard to find a ginger tabby.

I'm so worried.

I'm hoping he's only hiding away from us and is laughing at us.

Edited To Add - 23:06: The little shit was hiding somewhere. I heard a Mew Mew from somewhere in the house... I go and there the smug little bastard is, sprawled all over the floor.
I squeezed him so hard it's not even funny.

I was talking to a friend of mine about vegetarianism (seeing that both of us are) and I was saying that it was the industry of meat and how environmentally damaging it is. Not to mention that a huge amount of crops are grown just to feed the future steaks, burgers and what-not and that those crops could be grown to feed, ya know, people.

So far it's all well and good, but when I mention that I think humans are more important than animals and that I care more about human rights than animal rights my friend says: "I'm really shocked to hear you say that".
Shocked.
Seriously?!
The fact that I prefer my own species better over another? (except cats of course, but then again, they are Gods upon the Earth).
How is this shocking?
Someone explain to me, how is saying human rights are more important that animal rights, shocking?

Anyone?

I just got home from an outing with Mummy (she's leaving for the States tonight for a couple of weeks and I took a break from my studying to spend some time with her before she goes) and as we were driving up one of the busy roads, there right in the middle, on the separation line was a kitten, couldn't of been more than a month and a half or two completely frozen.

I told Mummy to stop the car. Stop the Car!!!! And she said she didn't want me to get run over, I said I have to get that cat.
It was so tiny and my heart was just breaking seeing it.
She stopped on the curb and I ran out, thankfully there was only one car coming my way and the driver had also seen the kitten and drove to the curb when it saw me approach.
A human was all it took to get that kitten running back the pavement and under a parking car - I tried picking it up, but it dashed into the bushes.

The driver of the other car asked me: "Is it all right?"
I replied: "Yeah, it's out of danger"
She smiled at me, waved and drove off.

I went back to Mummy and practically burst into tears, she said she would have stabbed herself if she's have run over that kitten.
She said I was a good person for going into the road and getting that cat out of the way.

I have to ask:
Is what I did so extraordinary?
Wouldn't a better person actually pick up that kitten and take it home?
Wouldn't the average Jane/Joe do what they can to NOT kill another living being?
Why is doing something so small like that worthy of a smile from a total stranger?

Star Trek:TOS fans will get a kick out of this:

Is this!

I'm having such a lovely, funny day.

Oh, and a happy May Day, Beltaine and Samhain (for the Southern Hemisphere) and all the other things that happen on the first day of the Merry month of May.

BTW, my birthday is in 14 days...

In addition, the genocide in Darfur must be stopped.

וכמו כן, צריך לעצור את רצח העם בדרפור.
