(I have a cat that LOVES to "wash" hands and faces Yuliya. We call it kissing; he wants a kiss back when he does it. Not too spoiled....)


In the book saving vein,

WYR save (and the other disappears) a comprehensive encyclopedia of the known knowledge of the Earth,

or

Copies of the major religious tomes (Torah, Bible, etc.)


message 2289: by Yuliya (last edited Nov 30, 2011 10:20PM) (new)

Yuliya (yuliyalovestoread) | 1685 comments I think (even I'm not religious person) that Torah, Bible, etc have more historical value that can not be recovered, so I would save copies of them, and with all my respect and believe in science, I will hope what it will be possible to rebuild comprehensive encyclopedia with even more high level knowledge of the Earth.

And my cat by some reason thinks I’m the dirties person in family, because to wash me out he takes the longest time and strongest effort, or maybe just because it’s only me who can deal with his sandpaper tongue.

WYR work for regular salary day shift or for double salary night shift (the same responsibilities and chores) ?
