floor. This cat was the best cat ever, it was on the same floor. Which was
also the best floor, by the way. And it was sitting. The cat was sitting.
On the -- the mat was underneath, on the floor, and the cat was on top.”
Later:
"This English professor came up to me with tears in his eyes and said
'Sir', that was the most beautiful statement about cats and mats
I have ever seen, even from Pulitzer prize winners! Will you sign
my book, sir?"
Still later:
"They're eating the cat!!! They're shitting on the mat!"
Much later:
