Starry Starry Night

Last night Snowball somehow managed to knock over his allegedly spill-proof dog chow bowl (he's good at that sort of thing).

Anyway, while I was cleaning it up, I noticed how some had landed:




For those who don't recognize it :

  2. It's amazing how patterns in nature repeat themselves. I always see tree branches in blood vessels.

  5. Maybe the universe is just one giant kitchen floor, and the stars are all just bits of dog food, and the Big Bang happened when a giant dog knocked over its food dish. Maybe the stars we can see are the kibbles, and dark matter is the bits.

  6. Master of wisdom Yoko Drano has spoken. Diviner of dog food Grumpy has lead us to creation.

    Tin foil hats for everyone.

  7. It's the dog chow bowl's fault-get your money back!

  8. Mmm... watch for signs that Snowball obsessively craps in the shape of Devil's Tower.

  9. He's obviously trying to communicate with you. It's time for him to go back to his planet of origin in the Orion constellation.

  10. It's the time of year for it to show up.

  11. Clever Snowball! Obviously, his planet is near the Dog Star!

  12. Thought it was a negative sky image for a bit.

  13. Not so sublime here as I first of fleas. Then, I saw the dog star. (I recently took my son's cats to the vet. She announced to our shock that those cats had fleas (past tense, now they've been 'treated'), and that was why they were scratching themselves. We had a dog (or actually the dog had us) before and she only suffered two ticks in her ten-year entire life.

    The presence of fleas never came to mind as I grew up in a household that would've never tolerated them, nor a louse. And, only had been exposed to the 'flea circus' parlor game. (However, mosquitoes were free to fly in an open window and they often did.)

  14. FYI for Jono:

    There are fleas that prefer dogs and will go to them over other warm blooded creatures. Unfortunately, the typical flea that gets on a cat is not as fussy. They will bite any warm blooded creature, especially humans.

  15. I'm glad you see stars. During exams I only see anatomy and wondered if it carries into practice. Guess not, thank god. (It was foramina in my rice cakes the other day, and I had a moment of disgust at what life has become).

  16. Just like when you seen dendrites in spilled liquids on your floor. Your house is full of science. :) Love it!

  17. My advice is to change Snowball's name to Orion. Siriusly.
