Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for October 12, 2024

Even Destry looks like a UFO baby. It’s a cornspiracy, I tell ya…

Oh dear! The UFO opening up is (probably) not good!

Now, we’ve got to figure out what Destry is saying.

Confession: I just saw a picture of a Siamese cat and realised that Elvis has a little brown face and the rest of his head is beige. Until, today, I …………..

(….. thought he had a mane)

The loud cosmic hum is because the alien ship doesn’t know the words to the song…

Lupin’s one up, one down eyebrows are amazing!

OMC! RUN!

At a guess, Destry is speaking in a cipher, where each symbol represents a different letter. At least that’s what the repeated use of some clusters suggests. (Great. Now I’ll be up all night trying to solve the Mystery of the Dancing Martians.)

Good thing I saved my deciphering from yesterday!

Sorry to interrupt, but Iggy toebeans!!!!! Double shot. Double EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I have never been confused by an arch like this. Anyone else?

Interesting coincidence: Friday, I watched a video on YouTube called “Aliens HORRIFIED After Humans Turn Their Own Trash Into Weapons | Best HFY Stories” on the Starbound HFY channel. It was about humans using garbage as weapons in a cosmic war.

Note: the Starbound HFY channel uses real people to tell space opera style science fiction stories. There are other channels that tell similar stories, but those channels use AI voices to tell the stories.

The UFO is opening up to beam someone down? or to beam someone up? I say we teach ’em a lesson and send Ora Zella up!

Mortimer is still hanging out with the kids – being a kid?

Partial translation (spoilers)

Aaack! Panel 3 is like in Close Encounters when the aliens are shaking Jill’s house to pieces, she tries to use the phone and all she can get is the five tones repeated over and over at manic speed. Keep those kittens inside!!!

Steve G would love this. Alien writing everywhere, vacuum cleaners coming to get us…

I’m reminded of an old SNL skit where it was announced that a reply had been received from outer space when a recording of earth sounds was discovered…

It translated as: “Send more Chuck Berry”!

Pertinently, Is Destry an active participant in this, or have his control circuits & subroutines been taken over by the UFO?

Close encounters of the furred kind?

ATTEND,

 ye lesser beings!

Today

is the 

Twelfth

anniversary of

The Glorious Day

when 

SHE-WHOSE-MAGNIFICENCE-OUTSHINES-THE-HEAVENS

deigned to Manifest 

Her Resplendent Self 

in this unworthy universe, and Bestow the 

Marvellous Honour

of

Her Wondrous Presence

upon this plane of existence.  

In Humble Gratitude for the Gracious Benison of

Her Fathomless Indifference

you are today permitted

Tasteful Celebrations

suitable to your lowly station.

Oh! Tomorrow’s Sunday, and we get another amazing double size continuation of this arc!

What will we see??‽

Just in time for Halloween! Will there be Little Green Cats?

Three vacs for cleaning floors under the roof

Seven for cleaning throughout every home

Nine runes, translate, go on try

One ship for the doomba on its dark throne

In the Vermont Valley where the kittens are

One ship to rule them all

One ship to send then

One ship to send vacuums

Or maybe just lend them

In the Vermont Valley where the kittens are!

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile

Fe-Anaro: Words are inadequate to express our gratitude. Not only did you show us immense kindness, but you restored to us our greatest treasure. Now our oath is fulfilled.

Queen Catshepsut the Golden: My staff and I were pleased beyond measure to take part in the fulfillment of your quest. What do you intend to do now?

Fe-Anaro: We plan to visit with Queen Mags in Afar for a time. Then my son Curu-Fin wishes to travel to Japan to meet with the Artisans there.

Mag-Lor: My brother Curu-Fin is second only to our father in creative skill.

Maed-Ros: Then we will return home to the Elven Realm.

Puckmosis: But aren’t your people angry with you? The Oath and all.

Fe-Anaro: We are not guilty of a fraction of the acts we are accused of. Still, there will be amends to be made. And now, we will take our leave with sincere thanks.

Iggy: Before you leave, I would like to give you my box I created to keep the silmarils in. I thought it was lost when I was shipwrecked, but my cousin Ziggy was able to save it.

Fe-Anaro: This was clearly a labour of love. I would be proud to house the silmarils in it.

Beatrixia: But it doesn’t seem right to keep such beautiful jewels in a box forever.

Months Later

Kat-Mandu: Elvis, here is a papyrus for you. It’s written in Tengwar Script.

Elvis-Anum: This is very pleasing! Gather around, friends. Here’s what Mag-Lor writes.

Aha. Obveeously steenky robot is one of em steenky outer space robot aliens and is inviting em to invades the planet.

Hey, the retro linoleum is back in panel 2! Have we ever determined if that is haunted (like the dresser, cuckoo clock, hanging lamp, etc.)

Why are there Two (2) Robo vacs in panel 2????

OT – cat related

Cats with Antennas, I bet.

For me, October is Horror Movie Viewing month. This is a good arc too, I love it.

RSOTBOG!!!! [Rare Sighting Of Toe Beans On Glass, for the newbies]. I also love cats in normal cat position in panel 2, and Lupin’s “Huh?” expression in panel 3.

Snow Sez updated! As usual, it’s a really good one.

Iggy has the same pjs as OZ, The Boy, and The Girl.

Lupin can’t hear Destry, though!

Since Destry is talking, I wonder what it sounds like.

There’s a kind of hum

All over the world, tonight

All over the world

You can hear the sound of a roomba above

You hope it’s not mean

Just so luminous and nobody sleeps tonight

Anyone can sense

This is not good and you know it ain’t right

So listen very carefully

It’s closer now and you will see what it means

It isn’t a dream

The other sound that you will hear

Is when it whispers in your ear

“You must clean, forever and ever”

/Les Reed, Geoff Stephens /There’s a Kind of Hush

Oh… this is not good…

OT – Florida people?

aaarrrggghh! (Spund of me being terrified by Aliens)

I guess I’m the only one out here who has no idea what’s going on. When this arc started, I thought I would figure it out, I was wrong.

Has everyone from Florida checked in safe yet?

The day of AI dominance is upon us..

Don’t you just hate when Microsoft releases another version of Windblows?

So far Roy has not seen “Tortimer II” in action. But Poody has, she does not fear it as much as our old Bissel, but she stuck around to observe it in action, only to recoil in horror as it comes toward her. After Roy and barbs morning nap he’ll come out to meet our newest roomba-mate.

Hopefully not in the manner the alien ships in Independence Day opened up, ‘cuz that certainly didn’t end well.

This would be quite a Saturday cliffhanger, but thanks to Georgia we get to see the next part in beautiful Sunday resplendence.

So glad the residents of the BPH are just concerned about happenings and not scared out of their minds, the cryptological orbsters are on the job deciphering the code, and the Florida orbsters are OK as far as we know. Whew! Now I can start my day.

Oh MAN, I cannot WAIT for tomorrow’s big cinematic splash!

OT:

hw.consultingdetectives @ g mail . com

Some of those figures look like a few of the figures in a script I invented

The Roombas are coming! Hide all of your carpets quickly!!

On second thought…

OT: Stamps. I broke down and bought the Hank Aaron forever stamps. My mail-in ballot will cost me 2 of my Pete Seeger stamps. So I will need some soon. I used the last of my Day of the Dead stamps too. Those were gorgeous stamps.

Iggy seems to know a lot of stuff beyond normal cat experience. Our cat thinks a UFO is a bug she hasn’t seen before.

Oh! I just looked at the message again and realized that the symbols for T and TH are related! TH is T with a vertical line through it! (How very Tolkien of Georgia!)
