And what about the Eel's Eyelashes?

The Bee's Knees, because it is also a good tune by Ray Lopez.

BEES!

While I am fond of "Blode and the Giant Bee", I must say that the cat's pajamas are all that and a bag of chips.

I must say that I rather prefer a cat's meow to its pajamas. However, all these things pale in comparison to, simply, The Most.

The Bee's Knees (http://marriedwithdinner.com/2007/10/19/dotw-bees-knees/) is a fabulous cocktail.

Of course, now I have to invent one called the Cat's Pajamas. If I succeed and like it better than the Bee's Knees, I will clearly have to change my vote.

It seems there are loads of cocktails called "The Dog's Bollocks" but they all look horrid to me.

[twillis.livejournal.com]

This is because only dogs think their bollocks are cool.

But, they think they are really, really, really cool, so perhaps this balances out.

Or the tadpole's tonsils?

Also, cats should not be required to wear pyjamas.

Support feline rights for clothing optional equality! No cats' pyjamas!

The qualities are different. The bee's knees are exciting, nervy, charged; the cat's PJs are chill and laid back.

They're both tiptop. Just depends what you're up for.

Mmm, The Bee's Knees cocktail sounds yummy.

What would be in Cat's Pajamas? Maybe cream, but maybe it'd have to be Bailey's so it wouldn't curdle. How about bush mills and baileys?

"The bee's knees" sounds like "the business", although I'm guessing the expressions are unrelated.

I'm thinking old tom gin is the base spirit to start with.

Re: Or the tadpole's tonsils?

[doctroid.livejournal.com]

Anyone know the origin and backstory of "cat's pajamas"? After reading this I'm wondering if it refers to nudity. In which case, cool.

[vampyrecat.livejournal.com]

How about hot cider and old tom gin? No, that would be cat on a hot tin roof. Catnip, Old Tom Gin, and Lime Juice => Cat's Pajamas?

To truly answer this question one must first understand the "nature of cool". And since most of the time, the cloths make the man, I believe the cats have it! If you argue you will be flogged with a sack full of bees.
