LOL! Didn't know I'd decrypted those ferret messages, huh, Alex? It's what the Cryptonomicon is for! LOL I am sure that FURO will devise yet another scheme to keep ferret historical lore from us humans; it probably already has. If we listen carefully enough I'll bet some FURO mumbles will reach the FML soon enough. Latin? The only ferret who is cattus is nemo*. (Oh, how I still wish I'd gotten to study Latin properly. One of these years...) Now, I COULD believe something else there being a cat but I won't say what. (There is a story a vet imparted to me which you just HAVE to read in the upcoming January/February issue of Ferrets magazine. I will NOT say more. This is a laughter alert.) Ah, Ardith! I thought that the blue was from WOAD (If I correctly recall the plant used) -- that those silly ferrets were dying themselves like ancient natives of the Isles! I thought, perhaps, that it was a hello to the ferrets who rented a Scottish castle. Now I must wonder if they were smuggling back something to muddle her mind and thus prevent our dear friend from finding a key to some FURO secret. Alex, if that is what they did you must have been close to uncovering something BIG. THINK, Alex, REMEMBER! YOU MUST REMEMBER! Sukie Nope, not a vet *nemo = nobody -- IF the scant bits of Latin I have aren't too terrible [Posted in FML issue 4711]
