“Fun” fact: the word helicopter isn’t a combination of “heli-” and “-copter” like many derivative words imply.
It’s actually “helico-” (spiral, as in “helix”) and “-pter” (wing, as in “pterodactyl”).
Linguistically, this would mean that a helicator is a spiraling… tor?
Whatever that is.
Why is his “Lovable” cat up there. (Just had a senior moment and can’t think of her name.)
Duck season?
The only bird Cybil is interested in is Grey Goose.
Take it to the beach, get rid of those seagulls…
I don’t think Garfield could ever do that; his beanie’s propeller would have to be extra-extra-EXTRA big.
Flying cats, even tethered, is something we’re lucky not to have.
I think she’s having a good time! :)
Nice to know that Lio and Cybil can have a good time together.
