That Thread About Work: "Custom kitchen deliveries...!"

"Maus" was very good.

I haven't gotten a chance to read it in a while, though.
Is it anything like "Apocalypse Meow"?
A few weeks ago in my fiction writing class, we had a 25 minute discussion about a concept for a film that would be about gigantic cats who walk on their hind legs and dress as soldiers in Vietnam and essentially reenact the movie "Platoon", except they're really aliens invading the Earth so they're walking around American cities instead of Vietnam, and in fact the movie would be advertised as being about alien cats ("Star Cats") but when people go to see it they'd figure out the Vietnam twist. And the cats would meow at each other but there would be serious subtitles.

We promised that one of us would do the "semester in LA" program and pitch it as a serious concept.

"We've already got someone we're considering for the lead role..."

"His name is Whiskers, and I swear to god, this kid is the next Brando."


As far as I could tell, no one in the class was stoned at the time, but I could be wrong.
 
Well, today I managed to get the manager in work to completely change the way our system works. This is great as it makes my job easier and will REALLY piss off one guy I really don't like.
