Sigh. Arm warmers and knee warmers yesterday, everything warmers today. And I haven’t even been outside yet.
Herself and I had planned to catch this evening’s opening of the Coen brothers’ latest, “Inside Llewyn Davis,” but you know what they say about the best-laid plans.
The brothers chatted with Terry Gross on “Fresh Air” the other day, and Field Marshal Turkish von Turkenstein (commander, 1st Feline Home Defense Force) was appalled to hear them libeling cats so freely.

Discussing the honor and privilege of persuading a cat to participate in their latest film, Ethan spake thusly:
“In ‘True Grit’ we had a vulture, a trained vulture … that was a pain and that was even — by vulture standards — probably a stupid vulture, and that was frustrating. But I would take a vulture over a cat. The cat was just horrible.”
As a consequence, the Turk’ has declared war on the Coen brothers, and we are forbidden to see the film.
It’s censorship, true, but what are we to do? This is war.
