I had two of them but couldn't get them to breed. I suppose one of them had to be female, dammit!

The one I saw most certainly had slit for insertion of ... well, whatever.
And I saw another one that had a joystick, with sort of a ball on top.
So I guess you cold have found the right stuff if you had shopped around a little more.

My cat would be called Schrodinger and might live in a box.

I always were wondering: If none can hear the scream from the cat, is it then a scream?
And if you have no way to know whether the cat is alive, capable of screaming, or not, is then the uncertaintly about the existence of the the scream at a higher level than if the (possibly) screaming cat is just out of hearing distance of any other animal?

I have three.
Bacchus is a male greyhound, named for the Greek and Roman god of whine (he doesn't bark). Hera is a female greyhound, named for Zeus' wife (she's the alpha of the pair). Both dogs are rescues from the dog racing community.
The third is Canada, a long-haired white female cat of advanced years and somewhat surly demeanor.
I'm a pet person, and I love all three. I'll always have a pet of some kind.

I miss having a pet, we always had dogs,cats and anything else the kids could sneak into the house. All that changed when the kids left home and I started working out of Oz.It is not fair to keep moving pets (or kids) around the world.
Singapore is not a pet friendly place, small dog or cat may be reasonable in a condo but I like big dogs. looking forward to getting a black lab when I retire, present to the wife, hopefully I won't get landed with all the maintenance.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

Acquiring two large dogs in a two month period (long story REDACTED) required a bit of an adjustment . Our biggest problem now is that if we need to take both dogs somewhere, we have to take two cars.

From my point of view manual transmission is more like an android phone. What do you think?
I do not fear of failure. I fear of giving up out of frustration.

He probably means manual is like an Android (closer to the metal) while the automatic is like an iOS phone (easier to use, hides underlying design from the end user).

Exactly!

If you are not going to decide when to change gears you might as well take the train.
(Actually - on a semi serious note - having to change gears does help keep the brain engaged which is a helpful thing for a driver)

That made me smile, thanks!
I drive a manual too, but the wife is, let's say... still learning. Sometimes I wonder if she'd have picked up driving an automatic quicker

Are you in India? If so, automatics would certainly be more convenient, especially in metro areas with bad Indian traffic.

I have to put my hand on the shifter to figure it out.
With enough practice, manuals things become automatic.
