Dear Ferret Folks- Oh! Lamentations! Wailing and gnashing of teeth! Yesterday we were warned about these copyright issues: " 'Thou Shall Not Steal'. " If such stealing does not cease the Ferret Elijah will be forced to call Ferret Math down on all of your households." Say it ain't so! I haven't stolen any nifty ferret buttons, I haven't even SEEN the nifty ferret buttons! I don't violate copyrights... containers of fudge, yes. I have laid waste to shiny mounds of pointy little foli-wrapped kisses. But no copyrights have ever faced degredation at my hands. They are clean. Except for the melted chocolate. I want to talk to the ferret Buddah Killian about all of this. He is a prophet, too. I want a second opinion. But wait...If I WANT to talk to Buddah, it means I'm suffering from un-Zen-like desire, and cannot yet be enlightened... Oh, screw that. Buddah must have a cell phone..He's got a website. I mean c'mon, the Dalai Lama has one of each, for cryin' out loud... This threat to Zap us all with ferret math must be addressed. I have ENOUGH FERRETS, thank you very much. Do you hear me Switch and Lily, from the next room where you are assaulting the bathroom wastebasket? I have ENOUGH FERRETS. And now I have wads of dryer lint on the bathroom floor. (sigh.)
