My coworker and I are talking about how ridiculous we found the Cat in the Hat to be when we were young. I was entirely too practical as a child to be able to grasp the idea of some liquid substance that would bounce off of one thing to catch on to the other. Also, I don’t think I would have allowed the Cat in the Hat into my house while my parents were gone, much less Thing-1 and Thing-2. I was such a goody-goody.
