cat food

Back many years ago when my dad was driving and keeping care of the birds outside, and likely the yardwork and other things, he'd gone to the grocery store.   He was buying a large bag of bird seed, possibly a few other items implying he might be single and a homeowner, and a woman in line kept trying to converse with him.   He was a social sort back then, but this woman was annoying him, and he was in a humourous (sp) mood.   She asked if he was buying food for the birds.   He looked at the woman, and deadpanned, "No, it's cat food.  See, the bird seed attracts the birds, and that feeds the cat."   She shut up.  

 

This is true:)   Of course, he's also told me it hundreds of times, but hey, at least it's amusing.
