I received this in email this evening and wanted to send it on to those
that have been sending prayers and best wishes.  Thanks again everyone,
it's time to try again.

Ferret Soul
 
A dog or cat steals your heart,
but a ferret steals your soul.
 
*********************************
 
To the Members of the California State Senate:
 
I am returning Senate Bill 89 without my signature.
 
I love ferrets.  I costarred with a ferret in Kindergarten Cop.
 
However, this bill is far too bureaucratic and it legalizes ferrets prior
to conducting an environmental impact report (EIR).
 
I am concerned that there has not been proper study to determine whether
ferrets are detrimental to the health and safety of California citizens
and the environment.
 
The EIR should be completed and evaluated as part of the decision making
process before changing the legal status of ferret possession.
 
For these reasons I am returning this measure without my signature.
 
Sincerely,
Arnold Schwarzenegger
