a tail of two kitties...

The Hub and I might be starting to show signs of cracking with this empty nest thing... This weekend we were perusing the list of available movies on cable and just couldn't settle on one. So we had the bright idea of letting the cat pick it. Marble chose (perhaps not surprisingly) Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties, a film based on Mark Twain's The Prince and the Pauper.

When asked, Marble had this to say:



Marble is being disingenuous. He really did perk up at the big lasagna makin' and eatin' scene. (Marble appreciates well made lasagna.) Plus later, on the back porch, we overheard him passionately discussing with Simon (the neighbor cat) the inherent injustice of class distinctions as portrayed in the film.

So yeah, I think he liked it more than he's letting on.

great movie watching AND great blogging. You can send me to the "garfield" site but you can't make me figure out how to do it.
