2951.0. "Abandoned Kitty at DEC WFO" by WFOVX5::BAIRD () Tue Oct 17 1989 16:00

       There is a problem here at DEC Westfield.  We have an abandoned
    kitty that is hanging around the entrance.  I asked around the plant
    and it seems she has been hanging around for a few weeks.  (I just
    got back to work yesterday after an operation on my knee.)  She
    looks fairly healthy cause the people in shipping have been feeding
    her, but she is small and looks to be about 5 months at the most.
    I know it's a she cause it's a calico, short hair with a real cute
    face.  She cried out when I started walking up the sidewalk and
    came out of the bushes towards me but then hung back in fear.
    
       I don't know if I can, but I'll try to catch her this afternoon
    as I leave.   I feel so bad though cause it's getting cooler and
    raining (if you'll pardon the expression!!)--cats and dogs out!!
    
    Let you all know what happens, and if anyone would like to adopt
    please let me know--I have 5 at home and don't know if we can handle
    any more.

    Keep us posted Debbi.  Try using some Tuna to bait her out of the
    bushes.  Poor little baby!

        All's well... someone from shipping captured the cat and brought
    her in.  She went home with one of the guards to join her "army"
    of cats already there.  This way, the cat can have her kittens in
    peace and safety.  If she hadn't been taken, I would have brought
    her home.  I'm sure this is a good home and she'll be happy!!!!!
    Not all these stories end this way.
    
    
    Well, I wish all you people with lottery tickets good luck tonight...
    maybe Digital will have one less employee by Monday!!  (For all
    those not in the know--the jackpot for tonight is somewhere between
    $40 and 50 million!!)

    The joke I heard goes like this - 
    
    -Husband (to wife) - "I won, I won! Pack your bags!"
    -Wife "Great! Where are we going?"
    
    -Husband "I don't care where you go; -> I <- won the lottery!"

    Gee, Jack, you could at least get the joke straight....
    
    Man:  I just won the lottery!  Pack your bags!!
    
    Woman:  Oh, how wonderful!  Should I pack for a warm climate or
            or cold one??
    
    Man:  I don't care, just so you're out of the house by noon....
    
    I guess you guys didn't win either...if I did, I certainly wouldn't
    be logged in right now!
