THE PETCO CONTROVERSY (Part two of nine...hundred)
"The Response From Anonymous"
At first glance, it appears the dog is in front. The dog is larger, a spatial cue often used to identify foreground Vs. Background, and it is also a brighter and more-dominant color.
Close inspection, however, reveals clues to the contrary. It appears that the dog's right ear (to your left) is impinged upon by the cat's ears. Either the dog's left ear is larger, or the cat's head is in front of the dog's right ear.At this point, reality steps in front of the bus, forcing a hard left turn. The dog is not in front of the cat, nor is the cat in front of the dog. The cat is to the left of the dog (to the dog's right.) The dog's ear is above the cat's head. In their two-dimensional world, there is no fore or aft. Shall I ask you whether you are earlier or later than your friend? The question simply makes no sense.

1) I agree that they are side by side in a colorful, two-dimensional world. And that if the dog and cat's colors were reversed, the dog would look like the one from Blue's Clues.
2) How does this fit under the umbrella of "literary" exactly? Or "brothel"? Yet perhaps the original LB would not have perished if we'd posted more mind-bending problems like this instead of our original writing.
3) Speaking of which, I can't believe how long the name "Klaus Varley" has been in use and how it's just now receiving notoriety. If you hang on long enough...and start a blog...people will notice you. Or something.
4) I miss Parker Briggsmore. When does he reappear on the brothel?
Your response is so multi-faceted, it deserves a front-page response.
Oh, but I will say we all miss Dr. Briggsmore. Did I say doctor? I've said too much.
Hey that's my friend Alex! He revealed himself as "anonymous."
Well done "Alex."
