I finally figured out how to get my start-up on all the front pages at launch time.

I'll make my cat the CEO.

I can see it now:

- Friskies at the launch party

- a one hour special on Animal Planet

- "Software so easy you don't need a mouse (she ate it)"

But no press conferences. She only uses email.


:) heh! I don't have a cat. What shall i do now?!


From the comments, that's a pretty deceptive way for a company to start out.


Seriously: What kind of stupid journalist would swallow such BS?

Fact check, people. I wouldn't trust a 12 year old to run a lawnmower.
