Thanks!
Actually, I have TWO cats that are all white and have odd eyes (and a red one with normal yellow eyes)... You might think that I was collecting them... 
Proof[^]
It's Ramses on the right, Curry is the red one and Iris on the left. She's the youngest of them, but she's regularly beating up the two guys...

Good girl, that's right you are in charge 
What is this strange mark or number in their ears ?
We should ask Bob to put a cat smiley in here.

A tattoo with an ID number in case they should get lost (they won't, because the are all indoor cats, but it good to be on the safe side).
It was normal before to do that, and the numbers are registered in case it should be necessary to identify them. Nowadays, cats are marked with a chip under the skin - which is better, because it hurts less when they are marked.

I heard about the chip. Currently my kitties don't have, but i ever leave for somewhere with them(i really hope so) they will get one. I never saw or even heard about putting tattoos in their ears. We have no laws about identifying lost cats.

It's not a law here either, but good practise.
Another advantage with the chip over the tattoo is that the chip is always readable. The tattoo behaves just like a human tattoo - it flows out and becomes less readable over time...

According to what criteria?
We once had them arranged by spine colour. That was actually much nicer than the alphabetic arrangement... 
But you are right; Right now we are "arranging"them according to the wind direction...

I've always called them angled or angle brackets in the context of a HTML tag for example.

Looks like angle brackets is the way forward - I'm just staggered it has taken me over 15 years of using them to realize I didn't have a name for them.
Also slightly embarrassed not to have thought of Googling

No, they are parentheses. These [] are brackets.

Braces, or curly braces.
Stewart Judson wrote: These are quotation marks ""
Strictly speaking they are double quotation marks, as opposed to the single ones.
Stewart Judson wrote: But these are less-than, greater-than signs <>
But used as quotation marks in some cultures.

Depends on how I use them. Angle brackets if used to enclose code, text or HTML. Less than or greater than if used in a conditional statement.
Left fish, right fish according to my daughter.

Some people call them "less" and "great"[^] or "wahka"[^], apparently.
What is this talk of release? I do not release software. My software escapes leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.

I think you should just lay low for now. He seems like someone with a short fuse. And you do not want to get on his bad side, his nuts high when a bunch of men surrounds him.

So, is this a repost? I think, I've seen this somewhere in the Soapbox.
I really love reading JOTD's on Soapbox, maybe that's where I've seen that.
Don't mind those people who say you're not HOT. At least you know you're COOL.
