This one's a double scooper


I actually regret ever telling anybody that I love cats and take in strays, because now I get all these felines dumped in front of my house. I guess I can understand it. I mean, if Joe Sixpack gave his girlfriend a cat and she absolutely fucking hated it, what's he going to do? He's going to bring it to Larry, the guy Channel Six called "the cat woman on steroids." And Larry's going to take it in. Anyway. Yesterday I found this one sitting outside my front door. It's a pretty nice fat cat, but sometimes when I walk in the house, I see it walking around in circles. And I swear to God its eyes are crossed. So I'm thinking it might have down syndrome or something. And it digs holes in the backyard and eats hamburgers and fries and is always taking dumps. Yeah. Like, the bad kind that stink up the whole house for hours. It takes like twenty of those a day. So I named him Ballmer. There's just... something about him that reminds me of Stevie B.

I miss my cats


What a great trip to Israel this has been. First I give away a shitload of money to defend some daycare center or something, and then I deliver a bunch of great speeches. I mean, I don't want to toot my own horn here, but nobody except me could make this kind of stuff up. Like this speech where I say that MySQL sucks ass. And then, to top it all off, I get hooked up with Yarden and Nivit and Natalie. I'm spent, people. Completely cashed. Or is it cached?

Anyway, I think it's about time to leave. I really miss my cats back home. Lots of people think I'm like some big time tech oracle who's out saving the world and bringing loads of light and joy to people's lives. And I am. But I'm also this really big sentimental softie at heart who loves cats. I even take in strays and build houses for them in my yard. I have quite a few, and they really miss me while I'm away as this security video (above) clearly shows. I mean, just look at all my kids. They're practically attacking Maria the maid because they miss me so much. Hold tight, little guys. Larry's about to turn on the afterburners.
