Gander The Good, Part Deux


By Miss Kubelik

Ten years ago on the anniversary of 9/11, we cats blogged about the wonderful people of Gander, Newfoundland, who welcomed the "plane people" into their homes and hearts. It was the most uplifting way we could think of to observe a somber anniversary.

Guess we should have been in the Broadway-musical-making business, because since then, "Come From Away" has been a smash hit — and is being performed in concert on the Mall in Washington, DC, tonight. Wish we could be there!

You know how whenever anything happens, craven politicians say things like "We are all [fill in the blank] now"? This musical makes us wish we could claim the honor of being an Islander. We cats PURR.
