Even if Harper's not a kitten-eater -- for me, the jury's still out -- this still leaves open the question of his reptile-hood.The only evidence there, so far as I know, is that he was able to campaign in winter weather, where your typical reptile would be sluggish. But then, in the old days (i.e. the 1970s), your typical Cylon looked like a machine, and we (we fans of the new Battlestar Galactica, I mean) know how things have changed in that respect.

I'm a cat-lover, so I guess I will have to grudgingly concede that SH may not be completely totally evil.I wonder, though, if he cuddles the cats or just shakes their paws?

This is a bit of thread drift, but couldn't find the right thread for this: Susan Delacourt on 'Politics' tonight said Harper may not have expected to win the last election, and thus made promises he did not expect he would have to keep - and now Harper is finding out how difficult it is to govern this country.- paws - Okay, now carry on your kitten discussions.

http://i5.tinypic.com/1267p7n.jpgAt the back of Parliament Hill, I took this photo of the residence for wild feral cats that were once owned by Ottawa residents but were left abandoned. There's a person who feeds them daily, relying on donations from visitors. When I was there a few years ago, there were 22 feral cats in his care. [ 09 June 2006: Message edited by: Boom Boom ]

Oh, my paws and whiskers! If so, our friend will have to learn what all cats seem to know from birth: You make your bed, you lie in it. [ 09 June 2006: Message edited by: 'lance ]

'lance, my hypothesis is that Harper is in fact a Therapsid, a reptillian creature of the middle Permian period that did have mammal like characteristics, including being warm blooded. They also had primitive hair. [ 09 June 2006: Message edited by: oldgoat ]

Truly, an ingenious hypothesis. This would make Harper reptilian, dinosaur-like, and Paleozoic, all at once. In short, it fits all the observed data. Now, one way to test it might be to ask: were he born in the usual mammalian fashion, or did he hatch from an egg? Couldn't be that hard to find out -- he's only in his forties. Must be some hospital workers from the time of his birth still with us.

Quite so, I just found one!

But of course! (Across the nation, people slap their foreheads). Some characters are simply immortal. quote: Originally posted by Nanuq: Haven't you been paying attention to his PR flacks?
Hitherto -- perhaps foolishly -- I've tended to avoid them, reasoning that if I want to be buried under tons of donkey shit, I need only turn on CTV News. quote: There aren't any hospital workers from his home planet because it blew up. That's why his father, Jor-El, sent him to Earth in the first place.
But of course II. Much, as they say, is explained.
