:: Alaskan residents are thrilled to see that the Northern lights have made an appearance. Renee might not be bad to have around after all!! She brought with her a wonder of the world. But alas, no, its just too good to be true. The "lights" begin to act erratically ... strangely. Dissapointment fills the air as it becomes clear that the "lights" are just a reflection of some wispy smoke in the sky. And its now swirling around becoming more and more organized. Until finally it all seems to implode with a great rush as if a vacuum has suddenly been turned on next to you. Now it's becoming clear as to what is happening. The coming of the great Ferret Oracle. The legend created by the Ferret Mailing List long, long ago. A character created by members taking turns contributing more and more until a real entity was born. And now she's here. In Alaska. In front of you. Oh happy joy joy:: Hi ferret love slaves! How have you puppets been doing? ::The Oracle realizes her gum is getting stiff in the cold and shoots it out of her mouth into the snow:: Freezing I see. And trembling in the presence of the arrival of Renee Downs. I don't blame you. That 'cano over there is scary. That 'Nay doesnt' take responsibility for nuthin, so don't take it personal. AH, I'm just kidding!!! In truth she'll be the first one to show up and whisk you all away to safety. Through the flaming rock and ash, she'll be standing in the street ready to access the situation and spring into action. Let me suggest, however, that you wear some sort of fur on that day. Cover your bodies and faces as much as possible. Perhaps you should slouch over, lumber your stride a bit, and .... grunt as well. Because I hate to tell ya, anything furred, feathered, or scaled will be the first to be rescued by this lady. ::Feeling the chill, the Oracle pulls her robe in closer to her. She hears some rumbling and feels the shaking of the ground and turns her head towards the looming Mt. Redoubt, then back to you.:: What? ::She puts her hand to her ear, and strains to hear you ::What, I cant hear you. I"m all the way next to Russia "doncha know". ::She rolls her eyes in sarcasm:: Oh you want to see! You want to see when this mother finally blows it's top. Gotcha. ::The Oracle dances around in circles and chants, "boo-ya-ya-ya-ya, boo-ya-ya-ya", slams her staff into the snow, and the snow swirls and rises into the air. An image appears before you ... it is Mt. Redoubt, LIVE!:: <http://www.avo.alaska.edu/webcam/webcam.php?cam=Redoubt%20-%20Hut> There ya go ferret love puppets. Now what do we do? I need the help of an old nemesis, er chum ... The Ferret Charmer. ------------------- Out of the sky with a boom and a bang come a blue 96 Chevy with charms hanging all over it. What's this? Somthing new? The Ferret Mobile has skis on it now. "Look out below, here we come" ::::sliddddddddddddde & thud:::: "Wow, that was some crazy landing, Charms" "Who Weeee, wasn't that a hoot Hoops? wanna do it again? Now where is that Oracle? I new she would need me at some point. What's the problem here sis? Hurricane Renee has turned into Renee the volcano? I can't get past her post where she says she has sub zero boobs. Don't they have fur bras in Alaska?" "Umm Charms, I think Renee said she has sub-zero boots, that makes more sense." " AHAAAA :::slapping knee::: so it does, so it does, But ya have to admit, my version is funnier." "So tell me Oracle, how can I help [Posted in FML 6240]
