Dear Ferret Folks- I think we've pretty much said it all about the Killer Ferret/Mountain Dew commercial. AND we've started repeating ourselves, AND we're writing things to one another with a tone that we would most likely *not use* were we speaking face to face with the people with whom we disagree. But with a keyboard, it's blessedly anonymous, so easy to be mean and hurtful and not have to look your "victim" in the eye when you get really critical of their thoughts, feelings, or beliefs. If WWII had been fought by blog all of Europe, the Pacific Rim, and the United States would *still* be a smoking pile of slag that glowed by night. Thank God we only used bullets, tanks, battleships, flamethrowers, and atom bombs! It means some people survived. Ferrets, too. Just a thought.
