So, here's a philosophical question for you. A few days ago, my cats (not really mine, I'm borrowing them, but that's another story) Emma and Sam caught a mouse and left it as a present outside the shower. I was not happy, as you can imagine, and sprayed them with a little water (their usual punishment for misbehaving). Last night I found the cats torturing another mouse. I grabbed the water bottle and a few napkins (to pick up the dead mouse) and went after them. They were both sitting there, with the mouse in between them. Before I could spray them, however, the mouse jumped up and started running away.
So, I've got two cats and a live mouse. On the one hand, I don't want to wake up and play the "find the dead mouse before I step in it" game. On the other hand, I don't really want live mice running around the house either. So the cats were sort of doing the right thing. I just don't want them to leave the remains for me. On the other hand, I don't want them to hide the evidence either. Then I'll have to play the "find out where that decomposing mouse smell is coming from" game. So, what should I do?

No hidden agenda here. This is about FlyingSheep.com. Oh sure, some thoughts may seem to have nothing to do with Flying Sheep (the more mathematical thoughts in particular come to mind), but this will be an outward expression of the thoughts of the same entity that runs FlyingSheep.com.
