The filename says it all.This is an office-friendly, ROFLMFAO kind of photo. It's two great tastes that taste great together. Put it on your desktop if only for a day. Have a super weekend.

Huh. Perhaps from shooting part of "a special two part episode" of Diff'rent Strokes.

Oh, and I almost forgot... How about remixing on of those tastes with another old favorite? (Lower quality image, unfortunately.)

You guys can have the thread back now.

Sorry, y'all, but I'd take KITT over kitty, eleven days out of ten.

I think the only thing that can top these photos would be a group shot of Hulk Hogan, Alf, and Mr. Belvedere together. That would be the greatest shot ever taken. ever.

Wear are the tits? To think that this guy went from KITT to boobwatch um, er,... I mean Bay watch is hard to imagine.

It's as if Bob Guccione bought Cat Fancy. I'm so overloaded with hyperperfect images of fluffed and fluffy kitties in perfect settings that I'll have to close my eyes and think of them when I pet my average housecat back home.

Wasn't the said two-parter (which I'm pretty sure this comes from) shot at Universal Studios? There's a Mexican village set there -- where they show off rain effects on the backlot tour. That's my guess where the photo is taken.

KITT was good, kitties were fluffy, my days is full. Thanks a lot guys !

Man, this picture rockets my mind right back to Universal Studios California, circa late 80's. The KITT car was still there, and I, die-hard Knight Rider fan, was about to talk to it. My big brother took the driver's seat and kept trying to push the "Turbo Boost" button, while I sat desolately in the passenger's seat (I wanted the driver's seat!) and asked KITT how much memory he had.

His answer: "1000 megabytes of ROM, and 1000 megabytes of RAM."

Heh.

Speaking of ALF, has anyone else seen the new 10-10-220 ad (Link not needed as I can't find an online archive of the ad itself)?

It seems that ALF is the new pitchman wih Bradshaw for the low rate phone company... or am Im just halucinating again?

If someone could figure out how to breed cats so they stay that small (like toy dog breeds), they'd make a billion kajillion dollars.

i saw a girl with a black cat that was about the size of a large or "teenaged" kitten. she said it was two years old and the breed was "miniature oriental". it went with her everywhere and behaved on a leash and wasn't afraid of crowds. alas, i have looked and cannot find a breeder for "miniature orientals".

I tried my hardest to resist. I really did. But I had to let out an involuntary, overly cute "Awwwwww!"

Damn. You.
