it's hard for a lot of people to believe that frank zappa achieved this level of weirdness without the use of narcotics.

he must have been a quite interesting father, because his four children have oft spoke of the interesting "games" they used to play. for example, frank used to create his own holidays for the family, including...

cat box day! if you believe his daughter, moon unit, the usual festivities included grabbing some empty litter pans, running to the top of the stairs, and "sledding" back down them in the cat boxes.

his kids turned out surprisingly normal.

This is the day when you clean the litterbox. If more than one person lives in the abode, they generally take turns changing the kitty litter. It can be an unpleasant experience; that's why they make littermaid and other self-cleaning literboxes.

Cats are such amazingly clean animals, they never smell bad (unless they are sick) and clean themselves voraciously. It's kind of ironic that their shit smells so damn bad...
