As some may be aware, but many not, Chester, my faithful writing assistant, mice catcher, and general pain in the neck, passed away about 2 years ago, and I still miss him.
This is my way of remembering him.

This is Chester. He has broken the agreement we had when we first bought the settee.
No cats are allowed to sit on it.
Pleading will not cut it. He is in serious trouble.

No. You cannot plead your case with Rosemary.

Yes. Hang your head in shame.
And get off the settee now!
