Hee! I got very tense partway through, not seeing how the thing could be resolved. Very satisfying!
Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I came across this and thought it summed up reading pretty well.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Toddson, I absolutely love that.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I need some reassurance from the Hive Mind.
At the animal shelter where I volunteer, a cat named Arthur Dent recently arrived. (Very friendly guy. If you’re in the DC area and looking to adopt a cat, I recommend checking him out at FOHA.org.) I’ve already had to explain Hitchhiker’s Guide to 2 other volunteers that didn’t understand why I found the name amusing.
Are they crazy, or am I?

Oh, those poor people must have no idea where their towels are. At this point I wouldn't even know where to start with introducing someone to it - the Martin Freeman movie, maybe?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
One of my colleague has Arthur Dent as his fake student account in classes so he can check things out. He is constantly getting emails about why there is a new student that they have never seen before. I went with Hello Kitty.

I tell people that it’s a series of books that combine SF and humor. I’m not sure how to say anything more without going on for 20 minutes of quotes, allusions, and an explanation of Vogon poetry.
