Mike, "what's up with that"? Laugher. Dat what. I was trying to brighten the day with jokes concerning a very common and hugely frustrating ferret behavior you had been eduring. I felt very bad at first when I read your reply, because I didn't make you laugh and enjoy the trials of ferretdom but instead I offended you. I reread what I wrote fearful that I really overstepped or did not make the jokes clear enough. I still feel bad that you misunderstood, but I don't regret what I wrote. Dr Phil, Freud, and raisons laced with LSD are never to be taken seriously ... for future reference. It was not sarcastic at all. I've never been accussed as such because, well, I'm just plain not witty enough to tell you the truth. My humor is more bubblegum, sophmoric, and you know ... Rocky and Bullwinkle, but not quite on the level of HR Pufnstuff. ::grabbing your hand and shaking it vigorously despite lavish resistence:: Let me introduce myself. I'm "Wolfy". I plague the FML with woofymoments and wolfyisms. I'm said to be part Furby with a loose giggle pin and part Ferret Oracle wth a loose bladder. Not a good mix. As you experienced. Whenever you see me in the future online and on the FML (and you will ... see me in the future, sadly), don't take anything I say seriously. It's all with tongue and cheek and giggles. I'm kinda like your ferrets. I live for the joy of the fleeting moment. Now what are you still doing reading this? Don't you have some kibble to pick up? Wolfy [Posted in FML 5974]
