Lately, my wife has been complaining that the cats are very messy eaters. She is constantly grumbling about the dried on food scraps on the floor. So, to simplify the problem she has been putting the food dishes on paper towels on the floor.

This morning as I entered the kitchen I was dumbfounded to see several food dishes on the floor...each dish carefully centered on a place mat!

After I picked my lower jaw off of the floor, I asked her what the deal was. She said, "We're out of paper towels."
