Something's been missing.....

Maybe this is me grasping at straws in desperation, or maybe the mythical world of intanglibles and superstitions isn't really all that mythical or superstitious, but I've noticed something lacking this season.  I don't mean a competent quarterback.  I'm talking about something else here.

I'm talking about kittens! This season has seen a distinct lack of kittens on MGoBlog.  Even the ef'n Garfield cartoons posted in the previews are sans cat.  Sure, the kittens didn't always work, but things were never ever quite this bad before.  

I'm in favor of brining back the harmless things that may or may not help out a little bit.  All the old school cry babies whining about the lack of a pro style offense can get bent.  That's not the problem.  We need kittens.

The previews aren't the same without me reaching the end, reading the word "intangibles", seeing something of otherworldly cuteness, and guiltily fighting off a smile so my co-workers don't come running over to see what I'm laughing at once again.  No amount of explaining would be able to reconcile to them why my favorite football blog has pictures of small adorable fuzzy animals every week.  They wouldn't get it.  

If nothing else, bring them back because kittens just make people happy.  In times as dire as these, we could use a little more happy.  We could use more kittens.

I was promised a damned zombie apocalypse after Toledo that I never got. 

As Orson chides the posters longing for bunda, if you can't find your own kittens on the Internet, you shouldn't be on the Internet.  A good zombie apocalypse though, you just can't find on Flickr.

"Garfield minus Garfield" is funny, but there's an even better version out there (I forget what it's called) in which Garfield appears, but doesn't communicate to Jon (since Garfield only thinks, and doesn't speak).  Jon is then put in his proper perspective: a weird, lonely dude who talks to his cat all day.
