"Cats are intended to teach us that not everything in nature has a function." ― Garrison Keillor Topic(s): Pet More From Garrison Keillor "The highlight of my childhood was making my brother laugh so hard that food came out of his nose." "Welcome to Lake Wobegon, where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average." "Nothing you do for children is ever wasted. They seem not to notice us, hovering, averting our eyes, and they seldom offer thanks, but what we do for them is never wasted."
