NOT AGAIN!?!?

THAT CAT GETS TOO HEAVY FOR ME!!

---Hi Neighbor. Guess Who Is Back? For you who have missed our first show, THOUGH, according to My Producers, NOT many did. My name is CHLOE. CHLOE The CAT, actually, but I usually only use CHLOE. The first show went so well, that my producers had the brilliant idea to bring me back. We came up with a concept, so here I am.
---They have asked me to talk about ADDICTION. It is a matter of public record and no secret, that for awhile The Old Chlo-ster was fighting with her addiction to ''Catnip'' I have been off the ''NIP'' for over 7 months. I feel good and my old PURR is ''up-to-snuff.'' I'm so glad that I'm on this side of my addiction. It was NO fun, needing all-the-time.
---To help me tonight, I have a guest panel. They have all done their share of Jonesing in-the-day. This subject may get a little ''brisk'' for the kittens, and the like, but it may scare-them-straight. You just don't know. It is a live show, so, if you hear some words that belong in the litter-box, don't say you weren't warned. Some of my guests have real potty mouths, when they get going.
---Enough of the disclaimer and ON WITH THE SHOW.

CHLOES ''GUEST'' PANEL

---''You may remember some of my guests, from the first show. If not,-''Don't worry about it.'' [Very Soprano-like]'' CHLOE



--''From the first blog, you may remember Ricky The Squirrel, Bert, and You-Know-Who. My two new guests are Eugene, The Dental-Dog and Wally, The Zebra-like-Kangaroo-With-Horns Thing. I really don't know what he is, BUT, he's here.''

--''Anyway, let's hear it for my guests''. CHLOE

''ADDICTION'' -- What Is It?

CHLOE and RICKY.

---''I first met Ricky, in a tree, at The Bette Ford clinic. We had both, tried and NOT made it, a number of times. Ricky said something on CHLOES BLOG, that the Producers thought was very significant. If you would repeat it, Ricky.''

---''No Problem, Chloe. What I said was - the reason ANYONE takes ANYTHING, is because, they feel so empty inside. They are trying to fill that emptiness with SOMETHING, with ANYTHING. Whatever they do, may seem like it's working at first, BUT then they end-up being ADDICTED to the TOOL they are using.. They get ''Caught'' and are ADDICTED.''

---''The emptiness then gets bigger, and it takes more of the TOOL, to feel there is ANYTHING going on at all.'' It is a lot like you and the ''Catnip,'' Chloe''

---Those were bad times, AS YOU KNOW, Ricky. Let me bring some of the other panel guests,, into it.''

WHY DON'T EVERYONE JUST STAY EMPTY?

Chloe and Eugene

---''I have to say something before we begin, Chloe. You did not treat dogs very well in CHLOES BLOG, you know. You seemed to try to make fools out of us. We have ''feelings,'' too, you know, Chloe? As far as I'm concerned, you were A BAD KITTY. A BAD, BAD KITTY. ROWF, ROWF.''

---''I'm sorry you feel that way, Eugene. I was only joking. I am aware that there is some kind of UNCOMFORTABLENESS I have with dogs. It comes from instinct or something. I do admit to a sarcastic feeling to dogs in general, but now I'm digressing...and we all know that's, '''you-know-whose,'' job.''

---''We have known each other for years, so I accept your apology. But, remember, DOGS ARE PEOPLE, TOO.''

--''I'll try to remember...whatever it is that you said, Gene. Please, continue.''

---''So, why don't we stay empty, or at least why don't we want to? I'll tell you....it is NO fun to be empty. To feel that there is NOTHING inside. You feel HOLLOW. There is nothing going on in your life. You feel like [bleep.]. You feel [bleeping bleepy.]''

---''My producers now tell me that we have gone to an 8 second delay, in anticipation of your well-known potty mouth, Eugene.''

---''I'm SORRY, Chloe, but that feeling is so bad. It will eat your insides, if you let it. [bleep.]''

---''Let me see if I understand you, correctly. You eat with that mouth? You are saying that the feeling is so bad, that anything to replace it, is tempting?''

---''Anything is better, than feeling like [bleep.] A bone, doggy-treats, CATS...er, did I say Cats, out loud?''

---''Yes, you did and I am outta here! This segment is over! Let's go to a commercial break.'SOMEBODY, CUE THE GORILLAS.'' CHLOE

He's a friend of, ''you-know-who.''(The jury is still out on ''you-know-whose,'' humanity.'') Russ, wants the old ''Chlo-ster,'' to help his ''show-biz,'' career I heard his songs and he's not half bad, after a tin-of-tuna. I decided to give him a shot. If you can't help the little people, once you've made it, who can you help? It's his big break, and he's probably a bit nervous.I remember MY first time on stage. Without further adieu...Russ Berman.

WHY ARE YOU TEMPTED BY THE ''FEEL GOOD'' THINGS?

---''You're up, Wally.''
---''I like the ''feel good'' stuff for one and only one reason - it makes me feel good. You might as well feel good. I feel [bleepy] most of the time. There is only one and one problem. It doesn't last. It ALWAYS wears off.''
---''What made you use the stuff in the first place?''

---''I was always a little different. I NEVER looked like the rest of the herd. Most are of one and only one color, basically. You may have noticed, Miss CAT, that I am two-toned. I am black-and-white, like a Zebra. What's that about, anyway? My father was a Zebra, with ''many'' horns, if you catch my meaning.''
---''I think we all feel we are different from our peers. I don't think that that is a new feeling. By the way, you can call me Chloe.We have come a long way from the 'Elephant-man' mind-set. It seems it would be good to be a little different.''

---''A little different, maybe, but look at me. I didn't fit-in with the others. I stood out. At school, work or the gym, it didn't matter. There was NO way to hide the way I look. All the rest made fun of me. they were merciless. I started to take whatever was available. I would NUMB myself, so I wouldn't hear them laugh.''
---''We are going to let Wally finish his remarkable, recovery story, later on. We will tell you this. He DID overcome his feelings of being different. We are just going to build the suspense a bit more.''CHLOE.
