First and foremost, my sincere condolences to all who've had their babies go to the bridge or have sick ones. Pat-thank you so much for your post yesterday-it was great meeting you. I've met so many neat people and friends here on the FML. Ferret people are certainly a different sort-we all have something in common and we're right there for each other! Socks is doing wonderfully, and last Saturday he did something he hasn't done in a long time-he kissed me! I almost lost it right there on the spot. Wolfy-you now have squeaky wheels on your wagon? Where's the motor on that puppy-or are you being mysterious with it right now? C'mon, can't you grease those wheels with the little ferret bombs left around. And what's with the 'smoke' and the suspense here--you're suddenly an oracle???? Hmmm, I can see this, long,draped robe, hooded by the way, wagon toting behind, depends falling out of it, Carpet Shark Scott in hot pursuit, Pongo aimed and ready to fire-wait-is that what the smoke was-Pongo's um, ammunition???? And then you went a ruined your fuzzies home-made still with the fountain while they were fermenting their raisins for wine! And the pearls around your neck, do we dare ask where they come from? And Lynn. Lynn, Lynn, Lynn. However could you not think what I've said my ferrets are calm? Doesn't everybody's kids do their own little dance? I can't help it mine dress in pantyhose and make up. Of course, whoa, wait........ Okay, flying cat, kids must be using the pantyhose again for the catapult. Heavens, mine rearrange the linen closet daily, pulling things here and there. Calm, how could you not doubt it? I mean, Fang and Suzy don't get much of my cappuccino's, and the cokes they find around, heavens, the caffeine just CAN'T affect them that much! Wait-I just saw my shoes and purse go by at the speed of light......... Mine are always sooooo calm, cool, collectors, er collected. Hmmm, there goes Suzy riding Domino like a rodeo bronc rider. Okay-Georgia-the octopus-are you feeding this raw or cooked to your kids? I mean, Viking ferrets I'm sure eat raw meat to show how tough they are (has Kouri gotten his Viking Helmet yet?) I saw where you were giving painting instructions again to the public--tsk, tsk, tsk. You know they have to have their berets on, the rooms have to be totally white so those brilliant colors can 'splash' to and fro as they wardance across the canvass. Kouri looking at the others saying "Zees ees the way to paint, a splash hear, a tail flip there-voila!" Judy's ferret normal????? AH HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! They have Judy for a mom, c'mon! Judy likes to watch cowboy's ride bulls, so you all know what's next. Tyson in chaps, spurs, ten gallon hat. Einy in a little 'dude's suit' and Hope will be in a dance hall girl's outfit. Now, as to what critter they're going to be riding at Judy's house, well....... And now Darryl and Meighan's ferrets are in league with Lynn's. Hooooboy look out! We're all going to be in trouble. Lynn-did it look like a scene from Chicken Run while your kids were chasing them? Did they (the ferrets) have little solider uniforms on-maybe filming a war movie scene? Better watch out-Sukie's kids have those high powered telescopes, night vision goggles, you name it, they've got if for surveillance. It's evening right now, will be morning/afternoon when this is read. Do you know where your ferrets are (or your wallet, keys, car)? Ever noticed that extra pot of coffee that suddenly disappears and your ferrets are dancing ever so much more, um, joyously????
