The cat has expressed no remorse and, in fact, appears to be completely 
satisfied with himself. When he visits he interposes himself between me 
and my keyboard, countering every typing move with a ploy for physical 
attention.

Interestingly enough, this interference usually results in my messages 
containing fewer typos, probably because I have to be very deliberate in 
my efforts.

The creature is amazingly strong and agile, qualities which may have 
been enhanced by his almost continuous practice of tai cheese.

Oh well, no business shall be accomplished today.
