Cal's Corner



I've paid my dues Time after time I've done my sentence But committed no crime And bad mistakes I've made a few I've had my share of sand Kicked in my face But I've come through

And we mean to go on and on and on and on

We are the champions, my friends And we'll keep on fighting till the end We are the champions We are the champions No time for losers 'Cause we are the champions of the World

I've taken my bows And my curtain calls You brought me fame and fortune And everything that goes with it I thank you all But it's been no bed of roses No pleasure cruise I consider it a challenge before The human race And I ain't gonna lose

And we mean to go on and on and on and on

We are the champions, my friends And we'll keep on fighting till the end We are the champions We are the champions No time for losers 'Cause we are the champions of the World

We are the champions, my friends And we'll keep on fighting till the end We are the champions We are the champions No time for losers 'Cause we are the champions of the World

We Are the Champions lyrics © Queen Music Limited


d.: Cal.E., why are you texting me a picture of a championship belt and the words to Queen’s “We Are the Champions”? Did you actually get into the ring with Tom the Tabby and defeat him for the Word Championship of cat fighting?

C.: No, d.c. I told you what I was training for last week! I won the world championship of catnip eating.


d.: That’s impressive. How much catnip did you eat to win the championship?

C.: Twenty-one pounds!


d.: That’s three times your weight! How did you eat that much catnip without suffering a “reversal of fortune”?


C.: Well, since I’m from another planet, catnip affects me differently than cats from this planet. For most cats, catnip makes them sleepy, but it gives ME energy! All the other cats were asleep after two rounds (or one pound apiece; each round consists of one-half pound of catnip per cat until one is declared the winner). The other cats could only go two rounds before passing out, but I kept going.


d.: Wait. If you had the competition won after just two rounds, why did you continue to eat catnip for forty more rounds?


C.: d.c., I think THAT should be self-explanatory. It was twenty more pounds of free catnip! And that’s not the best part. The best part is that I won a lot of money for winning the competition!


d.: How much did you win?


C.: $250,000. All I must do is send the competition committee my banking information and they will deposit the check immediately!


d.: Cal.E.,, do you see the fallacy with that?


C.: Yes, d.c. You’re right. I should ask for the twenty-five-year payout, instead of having the whole sum deposited at once. It will save on taxes and keep me from spending it all at one time. Thanks for the advice, d.c.


d.: Some cats never learn
