Cat Fired From IBM After Selling Secrets
According to numerous reports, a cat engineer working at IBM’s Buenos Aires, Argentina office was fired after allegedly selling secrets to a rival company. The crooked cat is said to have sold high end mainframe designs to a company in China.
Lawyers for the cat deny any wrongdoing. "Our client is innocent of all charges,“ said a representative of Berkowitz, Flitman and Grösch, who are representing the cat. "Yes, he sleeps on the job. Yes, he gets fur in the keyboard. Yes, he rarely meets a deadline. A model employee he is not, but neither is he a law breaker.”

Anxious Cat Talked Down From Ledge
Authorities in Bangkok, Thailand spent three hours talking a frazzled cat down from a window ledge Wednesday morning.
“It was clear Sam wasn’t going to end it all,” says Allan Borja of the fragile feline. “He was just a little freaked out – unsure if he was going to land on his feet. We told him everything would be OK if he just came down slowly.”
Sources say Sam is now resting comfortably back home, though still a little shaken from the incident.

Demographic Shift: Bunnies Love the Kardashians
Analysts at Nielsen were surprised to discover that bunnies, not humans, are responsible for the strong ratings of the reality show Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
“There are a few people who still watch the show,” says Kevin Roy at Nielsen. “But the vast majority of the audience – 87% – are now bunnies.”
On the heels of these findings, sources inside the E! Network say executives are scrambling to line up new advertisers as traditional companies jump ship.
“They’re courting a lot of carrot and lettuce brands,” says an inside source who asked to remain anonymous. “There’s a big meeting with Dole tomorrow.”
