cause a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at

This image, above, is from 1941, and shows - according to the original caption - “the proper way to safely pick up an excited cat in the event of first aid being required due to an air raid.”

good thing i am a musician and not a detective

I was crossing the Atlantic when things started getting really bad, the fever was hallucinogenic and shaking me like a leaf and I grabbed the sleeve of the Air France steward. "I'm not feeling well, I should see a doctor" I said and the reply came as a brilliant mix of death anxiety and french rudeness: "Uh, yes... Terminal D... go there maybe... when we land". After that the stewards and stewardesses took long detours. A ring of empty seats formed around me. Peoples eyes were kind but determined, they read "Poor you, I really wish you all the best but if you come near me or my kid I will have to stab you with this plastic fork". I got up and went to the bathroom where I fainted.

Now I'm in quarantine for ten days. I can see the summer through my window and it's just perfect. Summer is always best through a window.

without music, life would not be fair

This is a device activated by three DJing Octodon (rodents of South America). The ensemble is presented in a row. Both Octodon, left and right of the image, turning in their wheel activates each turntable. The third animal, in the center, run the mixer of the crossfader, which determines the sound. That is to say that it is possible to hear, according to the position of the crossfader, one or other of the decks or both simultaneously. The result is sound and conducted randomly. It works to the whims of these animals.
