::A woman is bent over, hovering over something that is steaming.  Little
ferrety creatures watch very interstedly.  Smacking her gum as she weeds
out treasures from the steamers, she then prepares them in her cauldren.
A gorgious, cute champayney-cinnamony little girl with coal black eyes,
slightly turn up in the corners keeps her close company.::
 
Dippy: "More trouble?"
 
FO: "Indeed."
 
Dippy: "You think you got enough?"
 
FO: "Absolutely."
 
Dippy: "Is it done yet, ya think?"
 
FO: "Yup"
 
::The woman in a large robe rises, with the prepared treasures in her
hands.  She raises her hands high in the air, and begins her ritual:
 
"Puppets!  The ugly ferret nazi's have gripped your our souls once again!
No more foul talk of this Troy Lynn." ::she blesses you::
"No more talk of Peta's." ::she blesses you once again::
"No more talk of who said what military messes." ::Cracking her gum she
blesses you::
"And no more talk of Kat/Tara/Kim and AC." ::She blows a bubble and
blesses you again.
 
There is a small tug on her robe::
 
FO: "What?"
 
Dippy: "Well um, its just peoples have to talk to solve problems.  Dat's
how da humans work ya know".
 
FO: "Certainly".
 
DIppy: "Yah but you're like askin' them all to 'shhhhh'.  Dat wont' solve
nuthin'.
 
FO: "Agreed".
 
DIppy: "Well, how come ya does it then?!"
 
FO: "Dippy, nothing gets solved if you don't debate the actual topic.
When you start judging people, imposing beliefs rather than offering
opinions, going off on tangent subjects, or not meddling in others
business... not only is nothing solved, but people, ferrets and work
are hurt.
 
Dippy: "You is da Oracle.  You make peoples laugh, and you wish happy
birthdays and you predict events.  Don't ya think you is interfering?"
 
FO: "Well... umm..... noooo.... well yaaah... I mean.... Don' you have
something to lick?!"
 
DIppy: "Sheeeeesh, testy!  You know I is right."
 
FO: "Okay, but I want everyone to take a breath, and laugh... and then
they maybe can either take a break from the discussions or focus on
making them constructive."
 
Dippy: "Dats not yer place."
 
FO: "Maybe you're right.  But you can't blame me for trying.  I care
about these people"
 
::The oracle starts to hop on one foot and spin around, chanting.  She
works hard to rid the area of Ferret Nazi's.:
 
"NAZI"S BE GONE!  Shew, there.  If that doens't help, the FML might get
buried again by that Lily and Switch.  Not pretty.  ::She pulls holds out
the three treasured hairballs she prepared... and walks over to three
ladies.  She reaches out and holds one under each of the ladies noses and
tells them to inhale their essence.  And it was good.  Kim shyly sniffed
hers.  Tara practically snorted hers.  And Kat was loving it so much she
almost ate hers.  The Robed One had to smack her to stop her::
 
"You guys?  You are on the same page as it were and don't even know it.
Its just you have so much passion you do not see.  Maybe the fumes of the
hairballs will clear your mind.  We all agree that no harm was meant from
the begining.  Kim was just trying her best to help Kat.  Kat was just
trying her every option to help herself and her ferret.  The post Tara
wrote was eloquently put, naming no names, had no harsh opinions, was
pretty fair, and was just a warning to some who may not be in the best of
positions to make a good judgement call when exposed to an irresponsible
AC.  We all agree, that vets and experts come first.  We all agree, that
we should be very careful not to make any decisions based souly on one
opinion (whether that is a vets or an AC's).  We all agree, that Kat is
a smart lady, and will do the best she can for herself and loved ones.
And I hope.... that we all agree its really none of our business what she
does, believes, or feels.  Some of us agree that Animal Communication is
a complementery to what we already do for our pets... and that often it
is even used as a last resort when everything else fails.  Really you
guys are all saying the same things, with very minor differences.  No big
deal.  No need to make it one."
 
Dippy: "I hope dey agree to disagree."
 
FO: "Yah man and to consider each others different points and hear each
other."
 
DIppy: "You is gonna get egg on your face for doin dis excorcism and
spell ya know"
 
FO: "Yeaaaaaaaaaaah." ::she makes a pouty face:: "I might.  But I gotta
try to make em laugh!"
 
:: She scoops up the apple of her eye and magically dissapears.::
