More Guidelines For Living

Because Your Life Just Doesn't Have Enough Rules As It Is

As a corollary to LC Beth's recently formulated Axiom Of Safe Sandwich Placement, I offer the following theorum. I call it the Turkey Altitude Theorum.

Basically, there is no altitude within the confines of an average kitchen capable of keeping a roast turkey safe from a determined feline.

Just as a ham salad sandwich can be gobbled in a flash by an opportunistic dog, your average housecat will accomplish astonishing feats of mountaineering to reach the leftover turkey carcass while you snooze on the recliner after the big meal. Your efforts to thwart said kitty from her intended poultry theft by smugly placing the platter on top of the fridge will come to naught.

At least she confined her nibbling to the wings and breast, and left the drumsticks alone!
