[00:22]	IsambardPrince	I think I can outdo Carlin by just going to the most obscene thing I can think of with one of his rants.
[00:23]	IsambardPrince	"Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man, living in the sky, watching everything you do, every minute of every day, and this invisible man has a list of things he does NOT want you to do, but mostly an all powerful invisible man in the sky who lives forever and knows everything is mainly concerned about which hole you stick your penis in."
[00:23]	IsambardPrince	And if you stick your penis in the wrong hole, he has a special place for you full of fire and smoke and screaming and burning and torture and anguish forever and ever.
[00:24]	IsambardPrince	But he loves you.
[00:25]	IsambardPrince	After the American fundamentalists violated all the Ten Commandments personally they stopped beating that to death.
[00:25]	IsambardPrince	Sometime in the mid 90s it became all about "Wrong hole! Wrong hole!"

[07:41]	IsambardPrince	I figure all that garbage the filter is taking out that's bad for humans is probably bad for a cat too.
[07:41]	IsambardPrince	Since I already have the filter system I just give them the filtered water too.
[07:42]	IsambardPrince	You want the cat to be encouraged to drink when you're feeding it the kibble because it needs to get more water from drinking water than if you were feeding it moist food from cans.
[07:43]	IsambardPrince	Cats have a pretty lousy internal thirst mechanism because their biology assumes they're getting more moisture from their prey than kibble has.
[07:43]	IsambardPrince	So there's various things you can do to trick that out, like make the water taste better or even get one of those bowls with a fountain in it.
[07:44]	IsambardPrince	Cats are more curious about moving water. That's not a mistake.
[07:44]	IsambardPrince	In nature water that's flowing is not stagnant. Stagnant water is dangerous.
[07:44]	IsambardPrince	Water that's colder is likely from far below ground, which is also better than surface water.
[07:44]	IsambardPrince	So people prefer water that's cold.
[07:45]	IsambardPrince	I always keep three gallons of filtered water between two containers in my fridge. I fill the empty and rotate the cold one to the left.
[07:45]	IsambardPrince	If I don't have cold water I find that I end up more dehydrated because I'm less encouraged to drink water.
