Historic cat

[autographedcat]

This morning, our cat Dayna (seen in my userpic) was being very annoying. kitanzi finally got fed up and this conversation ensued:

kitanzi: Dayna, stop it. You're obnoxious!
autographedcat: And disliked.
kitanzi: You know that's true.
autographedcat: Yes, I do.
kitanzi: And apparently historical.

Dear lord, our cat is the reincarnation of John Adams.

It should be noted that our only source for this is Adams himself, years after the fact. Jefferson, in his autobiography, denies that he (or anyone else) said it. McCullough's biography of Adams indicates that the only person who ever spoke ill of Adams' behavior in Congress, then or later, was Adams.
