Chess and Pets

I see recently that Kasparov won against the computer 3D (or did he tie?). I was having dinner with the world chess champion and our table had a checked tablecloth -- it took him two hours to pass me the salt.

Here are some interesting pet quotes:

"When you drop a cat it always lands on its feet and when you drop a piece of toast it always lands buttered side down. So I strapped a slice of toast to my cat's back, buttered side up. He's been spinning inches above the ground for a week now."

"Some dog I got. We call him Egypt because in every room he leaves a pyramid. His favorite bone is in my arm. Last night he went on the paper four times -- three of those times I was reading it."
- Rodney Dangerfield
