Being a man has it's advantages.

We can peepee standing up, Work complex electric equipment and watch television-when a coimmercial comes on we can look at 20 channels, and get back to the original program, just in time.......

Overage?

Has nothing to do with Age or Over anything.

It's the proper term for the Fat a cat that sits on the arm of the recliner.

(Over-uhj)....It's the extra plump and fluff that hang over the side....

But I digress...

-------------


I think that soon men will be born with remote controls built into their hands. It's only common sense.

If you notice, or will notice after you read this, that any man will never willingly put the TV remote down.

Well, they will put it down, out of reach of any person that may take control of the idiot box.

Of course, it may slip into the cushions or taken into another room while we take that mindless journey to feed, water or purge the old bladder.

---------------

Now we have to retrace our steps, searching tabletops, cushions and the floor space around where we had parked our mesmerized arses!


Nope, no remote here, there..It's not in the bathrroom, the kitchen or on the floor. Puzzled, I look at the Edster and ask him where the remote might be.

Disinterested as all get out, he shoots me a dazed look and puts his head back on the recliner arm.

Another pass thru the house and still no remote control...

I go back to chair where I try to remember where I could have left it.

I absentmindedly start to pet the Edster - Maybe I can distract my brain long enough and......


Ed is ticked off that I interrupt his nap, He looks, gets up, stretches and reveals...


The friggin remote control. :mad:

His 'overage' hid the remote control from me!

So now that I know his silly trick to keep me interested in him, that is the first place I now look when the RC gets lost.

---------

It also brings me the answer as to why the batteries seem to have such a short life span....

Since he has no fingers to push the buttons......he uses his whole body... :rolleyes:

Cats..... ;)

Well, wouldn't this be called "underage"????? ;)

....and you'd think that if the Edster's whole body was on the RC, then the channels would keep changing.... :D

I got woke up one night when Chester parked his paw on the on button, then the volume! The sound just kept going up and up and up and up... Until it woke me up!

I loved your take on your situation.. Only you could make it so funny!

I Remember Before I Axed The Cable How The Found Cats Always Seemed To Be Hiding The Remote When I Needed Them The Most.
Now Without Cable They Are No Longer Interested.
How Do They Know These Things?
