Thanks to
owlmoose, I have learned that a prominent net-trend-tracking website [***] has declared 9/9/09 a "Day Without Cats on the Internet" day, in which no cat videos, photos, or lolcats are uploaded to the net.
Naturally, a counter-protest is circulating. Here is our contribution.
[***]: Oh, the irony! I just realized the website organizing the internet-wide ban on cat videos and photos is part of AOL, the company that mailed us several landfills' worth of "Free Trial!" plastic CDs over the last 15 years.
I'm glad to see they have their priorities about what constitutes "spam."

Samhain has never made it to Kitty Superstar status, but her Concrete Dance video has racked up nearly 150,000 views and 300 comments.
