If wishes were horses we'd all be riding ponies.

My father had an idea, he thought it should be mandatory civil service but not just military but government. Just obviously there are a few flaws wirh this methodology. I'm gonna assume they're obvious rather than delve into them but I can if anyone wants.

Or I can tell a story about a cat. I highly recommend this option instead.

Choose your own adventure. Turn to page 175 if you picked "thermonuclear war," turn to page 6 if you pick "story about a cat."

I like cats. Give me the story about the cat.

Good choice. There used to be this really affectionate male cat we called Fink. He really wanted to be an indoor cat again but we already had cats.

One day we come home and we notice our cats are freaking out, hissing and hiding. Turns out Fink just scaled up to the second story to let himself in through the patio. No footholds or nothing, he just used his claws and shimmeed up.

That one day he was just sitting there on the couch, acting like he had every right to be there.

One day we stopped seeing Fink. I hope he found a home.

Great story. Best of luck to Fink.
