d.: I see that Cal.E. has been using her intergalactic binoculars to watch NFL football on my television again. I just hope that she didn’t make any bets that she can’t cover. The bookie would have a hard time finding her, though, if she lost.
What Cal.E. doesn’t realize is that there’s a “reverse feature” on those binoculars that allow me to see what she’s doing. All I must do is set my computer at an exact angle to her planet that will allow me to see what's happening on POTTC, as long as I do it at exactly the right time. It's 1620 right now, so I can tune in to see what's going on.
Today, she and her opponent, Ronald Dump, are making their speeches as candidates for the office of Ruler of the Planet of the Talking Cats. We missed the speeches, but now the press is being allowed to ask each candidate questions. Unlike here on Earth, these members of the press aren’t given a script with a list of allowed questions. My computer will interpret the questions and answers from Catonese to English so that we can understand what each one is saying. Their press can ask anything they want to ask the candidates. Let’s watch and listen to see who is better prepared to take over for Cal.E.’s first ex-husband, King Tom.
Press Member: This question is for both of you. Candidate number one, why do you think that you are a better candidate than your opponent to fill this office, now that King Tom has volunteered to step down due to mental and physical health problems?
C.: I will take that question under advisement and get back to you with an answer as soon as I discuss it with my staff. And might I add, that’s a lovely hat you’re wearing today.
Ronald Dump: My opponent is not in touch with the inhabitants of this planet. She left her husband high and dry and traipsed off to another planet in another galaxy when her husband was obviously in need of being relieved of his duties. She should have been the one to point this out to the powers that be and have him relieved of his duties. I will not let anyone stand in my way of making the right decisions.
C.: Do I think we can make a difference now that I’ve been to another galaxy and see the way other galaxies run their planets?
PM: I didn’t ask that question….
C.: YES WE CAN! Next question, please.
Crowd: YES WE CAN!!
PM. How do either of you plan to fix the power problem? It has been rumored that this planet will run out of power and fail to exist in one million cat naps.
RD.: I’ll ask that my opponent go first on this one. Will she run off to another planet in another galaxy now that she’s established relationships on a planet far, far away? Will she stick it out until the very end, as a good leader should do?
C.: Will you? The question is, can we fix the energy problem? I say, YES WE CAN!
PM. How do either of you intend to fix this problem?
Crowd: YES WE CAN!!
C.: It’s a complicated problem that bears more thought and planning, but, again, “Can
we fix this problem?” YES WE CAN!
Crowd: YES WE CAN!!
RD. I give up.
C.: And remember,
Crowd: YES WE CAN!!
