What is this stinky stuff?

One reader, Mark from Kansas City, has kindly read our BaLog and offered some comments. He suggests that, when it comes to Stinky Business That Belongs In The Litterbox, we use some word other than "poopy".

"It just doesn't seem dignified," Mark lamented, "when you're referring to the Exalted Lady Ba, who is worshipped by so many of us, and the Princess Noelle, to talk about their 'poopy'. Couldn't you use some other word? How about 'stool'?"

We've considered the matter, and very much appreciate Mark's point of view, along with his great respect for the Saintly Lady Ba. However, we just can't get over our own personal conviction that a Stool is something you sit on, usually when you sidle up to a Bar.

Another friend, Deacon Rob from the Senior Cat Ministry, suggests "poo" as an alternative. We're going to give this a try next time we have to deal with something of this nature.

Until then, if you'd like to share your opinion on proper word-ettiquette for the #2 stuff that comes from even the saintliest cats, please leave a comment!
