I HAD PLANNED TO SEND THIS TO MISTY PERSONALLY, BUT SEEING FELLOW FML PEOPLE
FLAMING HER, I DECIDED PUBLISH THIS REMARK, WITH BIG PERMISSION, OF COURSE.
I'VE ONLY BEEN INVOLVED WITH FERRETS SINCE MARCH 97, BUT I LIVE HERE IN
FERRET-FREE CALIFORNIA AND I, PERSONALLY WOULD NOT TAKE THE CHANCE THAT JOE
TOOK WITH WINSTON LIFE.
 
THIS SITUATION WAS BROUGHT UP AT MY LOCAL FERRET MEETING.  MOST EVERYONE
AGREED THE MAN HAS SOME BIG B---S, WE WOULDN'T GO TO THAT FAR.  THE KIDS ARE
TOO DEAR.
 
SO FAR, FOR WINSTON, THINGS HAVE WORKED OUT FINE, BUT WHEN I THINK ABOUT AND
REMEMBER KODO SITUATION, WHAT HE & HIS FAMILY WENT THROUGH, THE END RESULTS
AND THE FACT IT COULD HAVE BEEN ANY OF US, I STILL CRY.
 
FERRETS ARE SURELY, ONE OF THE GREATEST GIFT GOD, HAS GIVEN TO MAN.  WHO IS
NOT EFFECTED BY THEIR HAPPY NATURE.  THEY ARE A JOY IS SO BOUNTIFUL THAT
COULD LIGHTEN ANY BURDEN KNOWN TO MAN, NO MATTER HOW HEAVY.  WHAT A SADDENS
TO LOOSE EVEN ONE OF THE PRECIOUS ONES TO ONE'S OWN FAULT.  A GUILT I WOULD
NOT LIKELY HANDLE WELL.  PLAY IT SAFE, YEP THAT'S ME.
 
I HAVE SEEN STUPIDITY IN HIGH PLACES AS WELL AS NEXT DOOR.  I TOO HAVE SAID
AND DONE MANY STUPID THINGS, (HOPEFULLY, I WILL IMPROVE BEFORE MY TIME IS
UP), BUT EACH HAS THE RIGHT TO THEIR OPINION (AS LONG AS IT DOESN'T COME IN
CONTACT WITH THE OTHER PERSON NOSE).
 
IF LIFE WAS UP TO ME, WE'D STILL BE IN THE HORSE & BUGGY DAYS.  SORRY IF YOU
DON'T AGREE WITH ME, THAT'S OK, THAT WHAT MAKES US WHO WE ARE, FRAIL,
MIXED-UP HU-MANS.
 
MISTY YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO YOUR OPINION, YOU LOVE YOUR KIDS, THEY DESERVE ALL
THE LOVE THEY CAN GET.  THEY ARE JUST HAPPY CAMPERS AND WE ARE THE LUCKY
CAMPSITES.
