        Ya sounds like a good idea.  A box of rodent repellent (ie. Ferret
poop) makes a wounderfully marvelous gift.
 
        My hart goes out to all who have lost friends over this year.
 
        May we all have happy holidays and a GREAT 1994.
 
        Brad, Sebastian, and Mako.
 
        P.S.  Does anyone have a list of ferret events for 1994.  I know
it's a bit early to ask, but I realy want to go to one or two this year.
I missed out on the ones that were close to me, so maybe I'll do a road
trip.  Best wishes all.  Brad
