I like the way the cat was surfing the tile down, then, OK time to bail!

Also how weak was that attached if a 7 lb cat could make it fall?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buttered_cat_paradox would have been fantastic.

quote:

The idea appeared on the British panel game QI, where the idea was discussed. As well as talking about the idea, they also brought up other questions regarding the paradox. These included "Would it still work if you used margarine?", "Would it still work if you used I Can't Believe It's Not Butter?", and "What if the toast was covered in something that was not butter, but the cat thought it was butter?", the idea being that it would act like a placebo

Most were abandoned when people had to relocate, hence the good coats, mild demeanor, and healthy weight on them.
Unlike the cats, however.

There's probably a rescue a little closer than Sochi.

Seriously, the money you will spend getting a dog from Sochi to USA will be really high.

Maybe Sochi dogs are like... designer strays?

Just get a dog from the closest shelter, and teach it 'sit' or 'down' in Russian.

Don't be stupid get a local one, there are strays and dogs being put down every day in almost every part of the world.
Flying a half wild one from 5,000 away is just a waste of money.

your parents are retarded so you might want to get checked for retardation as well

alternatively just adopt a local stray and tell them you got it from sochi. wrap it in a tarp so they believe you

I would like to adopt a tarp to make my garage look like a 19th century brick building. All the tarps at the local shelters here are blue, and boring.

They most likely will, they were just wondering if there was like an agency setup or something, but doesn't look like it, so nevermind.

But think of how impressed my friends will be when the next winter olympics roll around and i tell them the tarp i have came from that place that was on tv for 3 weeks that one time 4 years ago.

Maybe befriend that one Ski Slopestyle guy who is spending his free time in Sochi gathering up the local young tarps?

He might be able to fold a few good ones up and shove into his suitcases.
