Below is a letter sent to Wolfy, too:
Okay, okay, I have wattles AND I waddle!  I can't fly, though -- SIGH.
Maybe I should hang weights on my wattles and see if I could get them
long enough to be wings, but I can't run for a take-off.  I know!  I
could take a flying leap... (Like I haven't had a few people tell me to
do that before, even before I had wattles!  LOL!)

FIBBER! :-P  I have NO recollection of looking that up so YOU must be
the guilty party!  Bwaaaha!
 
Hey, Wolfy, where is the largest fungus in the world?  (And don't tell
me I am sitting on it; we had that discussion yesterday, my friend.)
 
I want to fly!
 
The only flying I do now is through web-searches and text searches (no
lumshivaks and no point rolls though it can feel like them -- to me at
least -- when it gets good enough).  Finding what I seek is like an
inverted ribbon cut!  LOL!  (Okay, I really don't fly, but we love air
shows and the late Leo Loudenslager kindly took out a copy of our condo
mortgage in his inverted ribbon cut at the 20th Sussex Airshow in upstate
NJ in 1992.)

don't really know a lot; I just know how to look it up!
 
Let's see:

Here's Europe's possible largestin the Eastern Swiss Alps:

It's the same with ferret stuff.  I look it up!  I spend hours each day
searching things down.  Up, down... That's all there is to it.  Oh,
Wolfy, don't look sad.  It's okay. Really.  'Cause since I can do it so
can anyone else which means that anyone who puts in the time searching
for ferret information can get it and that is a wonderous, magical
thing which helps all ferrets and all ferret people!  Want me to post
some useful ferret links again?
