I would not want to try to control a plane with a cat stuck to my face like a scene out of Alien. Even if Ms Weaver strips to her undies.

How to bathe a cat:

1. Thoroughly clean the toilet.
2. Add the required amount of shampoo to the toilet water, and have both lids lifted.
3. Obtain the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.
4. In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close both lids (you may need to stand on the lid so that he cannot escape).
CAUTION: Do not get any part of your body too close to the edge, as his paws will be reaching out for any purchase they can find.
5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a 'power wash and rinse' which I have found to be quite effective.
6. Have someone open the door to the outside and ensure that there are no people between the toilet and the outside door.
7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids.
8. The now-clean cat will rocket out of the toilet, and run outside where he will dry himself.

Sincerely,

The Dog

I would say,

"America is a melting pot. If you wish to come to become Americans, you will be welcome. If you only want to stir the pot, or are just looking for gold, you will not be welcome.

"America is not a club of European origin. It is not a land administered by peoples who walked across the dry floor of the Bering Straits. It is a dream of doers, and a shared vision of hope and opportunity. The dream to receive rewards for your effort, talent, and perseverance, and the opportunity to make it happen.

"And America is not a shuttered hall of fearful lurking denizens. It is a rowdy, joyful cabaret of talented and dedicated patriots. There may not be room here for all who want to come and share our dream, but there is room on the flag for more stars."

If he would remember where the litter box is I would be fine.

They fly through the air with the greatest of ease,
that poetic young fellow and his lady, L.E.

Their friend Lulabelle, thinks that flyings' a breeze,
They're the family with the dog, above all the trees!

Above all the trees is important. Airplanes and trees do not mix well.
