DATA'S ODE TO SPOT
Evo nešto i za mačkolavere, pošto znamo da među blogašima imade barem jedan/jedna deklariran/a :))
Vjerujem da većina zna za onu famoznu poemu lt.cmndera Date, posvećenu njegovoj dragoj žutoj mačkici po imenu Spot, iliti po naški- Točkici. Kad smo već kod Točkice, Točkica je u početku zapravo bila, hm, Točak...zahvaljujući gafovima scenarista postao je ženka bez ikakvog objašnjenja, a pravim ljubiteljima mačaka sigurno nije promaklo i da je Točkica upočetku bio obični kratkodlaki mačak koji se kasnije pretvorio u dugodlaku somalijsku mačku. Vjerujem da vas to ne zanima previše, pa zato evo radije pjesme:
ODE TO SPOT
Felis Cattus, is your taxonomic nomenclature,
an endothermic quadruped carnivorous by nature?
Your visual, olfactory and auditory senses
contribute to your hunting skills, and natural defenses.
I find myself intrigued by your subvocal oscillations,
a singular development of cat communications
that obviates your basic hedonistic predilection
for a rhythmic stroking of your fur, to demonstrate affection.
A tail is quite essential for your acrobatic talents;
you would not be so agile if you lacked its counterbalance.
And when not being utilized to aide in locomotion,
it often serves to illustrate the state of your emotion.
O Spot, the complex levels of behaviour you display
connote a fairly well-developed cognitive array.
And though you are not sentient, Spot, and do not comprehend, I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend.
