@BrianTransplant my wife grew up in very Christian circles, I... did not. #fiveironfrenzy was one band we could always agree on. I didn't even notice the Christian aspect of them until I met her.

The orange cat is the most aggressive but he was declawed before I met him (for the record I don't support declawing) so he isn't really a danger to anyone.
