R.I.P - Tails

Earlier today, one of my mums cats were put to death. He was the cutest thing you'd ever see. He was always so cuddly. Just before the weekend, he hurt himself somehow. We really don't know how or where. The vet couldn't find anything on the x-rays, nothing. Still, he would scream out in pain, when you touched him on his lower back. He couldn't empty his bladder nor was he able to take a dump. It was so painful to watch him during this weekend. Today it was decided that it was best for him to move on. It's so sad, he could always cheer me up when I visited my mum - the thought of him gone, forever really brings me down. But it was nothing we could do for him - he was in so much pain, and we couldn't do nothing to ease the pain. Now, all we've got are memories - and his twin brother. The memories of the joy he brought, still lives on. I hope his brother won't miss him too much - I know I will.

A few weeks ago, I bought a 3-pack of microwave pop-corn. What's better on a saturday, to rip open a can of beer and munching freshly popped pop-corn? Not much I tell you! Those that know me personally, know how much I love pop-corn, it's pretty darn close to an obsession I tell you. The problem with this particular saturday was the following, one of the bags of pop-corn, specifically the last one, was bloody empty! It wasn't because anyone ate the contents mind you, it was sealed and everything, one could feel one single little seed in the bag. I panicked of course, searched every inch of the house for a replacement, but no such thing. Pretty upset I wrote the company who happens to market and sell this stuff to tell them about this very unplesant incident.

Last night, a package arrived from these guys. It was heavy I tell you. I got my hopes up, dragged this shit all the way home from the post office, thinking it was a bunch of pop-corn. I was a happy camper, ripped the packaging off only to find a cardboard box, with the companies name on it. No letter of apology or anything. The content of the box was the following:

* 500g macaroni
* 400g chopped tomatoes with basil and oregano
* 400g black beans
* 410g corn
* 185g tuna
* 227g pineapple
* 227g water chestnut
* 100g light chocolate
* 100g dark chocolate
* 350g peanuts
* 100g cashews

Do any of you spot the problem here? You got it! Not even a single grain of pop-corn. No letter of apology. They just sent me this crap to shut me up. They didn't even send me a pre written form. I'm still an unhappy costumer, even a single bag of pop-corn would have been enough, I mean - that would have covered my expenses, I want pop-corn! I don't want any of this crap! maybe I could sell the peanuts, cashews and all this other crap on the corner, but what the heck!
