Dear Todd- Yesterday you wrote " Could our little snout-kids be responsible for the current economy? Could we get rich by diving into their hidey-holes and finding bundles of cash???" Well, I went to look, just in case. I did find sixty-three cents, but I think it fell out of the man's pocket. There was a MAN stashed in the ladie's favourite hiding spot between the arm of the sofa and the living room wall. He's not very big, but I don't understand how we didn't see him there! He is elderly, and sort of frail. He wears his hair in an elaborate comb-over. Once I worked the duct tape off (there were many tiny fang-holes in the tape) he told me that his name is Alan Greenspan, and he is the Chairman of the "Federal Reserve", whatever that is. He said that he had been stashed by the FLO. He is on my sofa now, drinking a good strong cup of tea and eating Danish butter cookies. He is pretty shaken up. Does this have something to do with the economic problems you were talking about? Please advise. Alexandra in Massachusetts P.S. The ladies are caged until I get to the bottom of this!
