I should head down to that small state of Texas and photograph Maggie for myself. I would catch her leaping - you can be sure I would.* Perhaps she would leap all the up here to Alaska, where she could spend three days at my house doing a great calico shoot before reluctantly returning to Texas.

*This statement is in no way meant to demean the photograph of the non-leaping, sitting, calico Maggie. It is a fine and beautiful photograph of a fine and beautiful cat. It's just that I would catch her leaping; that's all. Please take no offense.
