Today at lunch, an orange cat (that Lemming recognizes) was hanging out with me at lunch. It briefly tried to climb me and whined until I gave it some food. It's tag lists it as a Caltech cat named "Velcro". I don't know whose cat it is or if it's a general on-campus cat. After it accepted my leftover food (which consisted mostly of gravy at that point), I decided I had the authority to rename it "Phonon", which will be especially apt if it adopts the condensed matter group. (Lemming mentioned that Phonon hangs out outside of Chandler, but I didn't recognize this cat.)
In other news, the wheels are now officially in motion for my April Fool's Day prank (I found a necessary accomplice who is "inside"). Be afraid; be very afraid... (and stay tuned...) You might be hearing about this one... (and I'll tell you, if nothing else).
Will your April Fool's prank reach all the way to Atlanta?
ReplyDeleteHmmmm... it's possible but unlikely.
ReplyDeleteThere is an extent to which it should, but realistically I don't think very many people in Atlanta will notice it until I tell them about it.
