I woke up and the day was gray, rain falling upon my newly planted garden. I had my breakfast, sat down at my computer, checked my emails and then - having purged all other forums from my life, for they are all such a waste of time - I logged onto "Cat of the Day." There I saw Promise and, just like the day, she too was gray.

And so I realized that gray, that poor, oft-shunned and lamented color, can be most beautiful when properly applied. A little curl in the tail makes a fine accent.
