I have a black lab pup of 10 months old who displayed OCD qualities taking a toy in her mouth then pacing back and forth before me or between my wife and I if we are both there. Reaching out to touch us once as she passes each time.
Over and over and over in a figure 8 obsession.
She also can bring about temporary blindness with her farts.

My cat likes to bring his cat ball to me while I sleep. And if I don't play with him immediately, he just climb on me and he is 5.7kgs already. If this doesn't work he starts to fawn in my face. Such adorable animal.
Once I found 4 balls in the bed.

Trust me, there are worse things to find in your bed...particularly when cats are involved 
We've had mice, dismembered birds, frozen chicken portions, koi, and cat waste products.

We had one cat who was as thick as thick could be. He literally could only concentrate on one thing at a time.
He got an itch, so he stopped walking; up came the back leg, and "scritch-scritch-scritch" behind his ear - as they do. While this was in progress a fly buzzed past him and he thought "I'll have that!" and tried to run-and-pounce. Forgetting that one leg was up in the air going "scritch-scritch-scritch" he attempted to charge - and promptly fell over, still scritching.He was desperate to mate with our female cat and tried loads of times, but never quite got it right - he would bite the base of her tail and sling his leg over the wrong end. This never went well...
One day he sussed it out: the teeth were in the scruff of her neck, the legs were in the right place, he was so excited! Then a fly buzzed past him, and he thought "I'll have that!"  He would charge around outside like a loon - and run headfirst into parked motorcycles...[edit]Typo: and what a typo...  [/edit]

When there is a bird or cat in our back garden the dog starts going nuts at the back door to be let out to get it.
A couple of weeks ago he was released, went charging down the garden after a cat that hopped up the fence out of his way.
When he hit the fence head first his head went straight through the panel and he stood there, head outside our garden, looking left and right trying to work out where the cat had gone.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

We had a cat, called Piffle, she was the blond of cats, long grey hair and as stupid as they come. She only ever once actually caught a bird, she was asleep on a tree branch and the poor bloody thing landed on her.
We had mice eating the dog nuts, so fat they could hardly walk, she tripped over one and had no idea what to do with it!

Every now and then my parrot decides to commit suicide and falls down to the bottom of the cage...
Once there he starts making a noise like "Woooooooooow!" then he goes back to the wood where he finds comfortable...

My cat used to love those pull tabs - I used to get them on orange juice cartons. She also used to love playing with crumpled bits of paper[^] - she could chase a bit of paper around for hours!

I had a cat that would play fetch with one of those whiffle balls with the rattle in the center. He was a goofy cat but I loved him a lot and miss him terribly.

While searching for M83 Outro, came across this video on youtube.....

I just think it is as the subject says!
And to think that the search started by trying to find the music from a Persil Washing Powder Advert!

I did some sky diving when I was a kid and thought it was amazing, the flying suits just leave me speechless, pity I'm too old and fat to do try

You're never too old to try sky-diving.
You may be too old and fat to try it twice.

There is a vast difference between sky diving and falling sky.
I hate to imagine the size and shape of a flying suit capable of giving me a 3:1 flight ratio

Sky Diving is one of the only things in existence that has a 100% success rate! No one ever complained that their parachute did not work...

This is one thing I want to do. I guess after cliff jumping, bungee jumping and sky diving, this is the next step. Then, I want my jet pack that can work at escape velocity.

They sound a bit like Enigma to me. Heres[^] a sample if you've never heard them.

I use to love falling asleep to Enigma, have their "MCMXC" and "The Cross Of Changes" albums, especially after a few (or quite a few) beers. Use to get some really weird dreams...

I can imagine.
My brother turned me on to them during my trip and I really like them. Shadows in Silence is one of my favorites.
