Re: He's Back and He's Black!
Uhh -- Akira Kurosawa's "Kagemusha"? (from whose subtitles comes the epithet "you mountain monkey!", a term I often hurl at our hyperactive kitten)

Let us know of your kitty's name. We can do wonders tracing its previous incarnation in Imperial Japan. In the meantime, check out http://nauticom.net/users/ata/monkey.htm

It's a half-grown mutt kitten with a great personality. We got it from friends when it was really small. My wife dubbed it Sophie, but nobody (even her) calls it anything but Baby Kitty (and probably still will when it's 15).Not much potential there for an Imperial Japanese heritage (altho "Kat"suyori was the bumbling son in "Kagemusha" that brought the entire army down...)

An answer to the rhetorical question: "Quo ape has mice?"
could be its anagram, "Sophie Macaque".P.S. I thing an off-topic discussion of movies has been silently brewing for quite a while now, and is well in order!
