Dr. Teschner was schooled in Westboro, Mass with me back in the 60s. He now is a key person in the creation of the Zimbabwe government creation. In his spare time he digs for ancient man artifacts and on a clay tablet now hardened to stone by the eons of time was etched this statement from Gzork, a cave man from so many years ago. Her is Gzork's story of the creation of the Dook: The First Dook While creating the heavens and all that which resides therein, God created the animals, many kinds of them, large and small of all shapes, sizes and descriptions each being thankful for life and admiring the works of Him. Looking at His work He said "That is good!". God smiled at the ferret and said "You shall be domesticated by man and be a most valued and treasured companion. Not all man will be tolerant of you but those of kind soft heart and the intelligence will keep you and you will hone his patience and ability to love at the same time observing my greatness thru you. Of those who are intolerant and cruel some may learn to not be such, others won't. Yet someday all will find and cross that bridge and I will meet them right here to review their actions on earth in My final judgment. Mostly you will be kept by those who love you and keep you close. Man's reward will be many laughs, much fun and returned love in abundance with learning about himself as he shares your short life on earth. Your reward will be a home, warmth, feed and love for you being only just what you are. May it be so. " Then He felt a cold wet spot bobbing on His foot. Looking down He saw waiting with great patience a masked furry face with piercing dark eyes looking up at Him. This warm fur creature full of life and fun was seeking His attention to share love and companionship. And God spoke "Where you seek the most gracious civil gift of attention you shall also seek all things with insatiable curiosity.". God saw the little creature was most happy but did not have the ability to smile and giggle in glee so He gave this little animal the ability to DOOK when so happy. With that the very first "DOOK DOOK DOOK" ever was heard by the heavens and all who resided therein. With that the ferret joins man in life where to each other great benefits are given while sharing love and experiences together. [Posted in FML issue 4493]
