>Hot pepper as a deterrant. Timon, the alpha, ring leader of the gang of three, eat a jalopeno pepper once. Not the whole thing, about 3/4. I had some peppers laying out, I found Timon in the corner going to town! >Re: dr. wendy winsted >you mentioned her son taylor....can you tell me any more info about how he >and his sister are getting along? I met the two kids at Waterfront Park in Old Town Silverdale, last summer. That's on the Olympic Peninsula (due East of Seattle). Charming kids, polite and well mannered. I don't remember the little girl's name. If I remember correctly, they were there staying with an uncle or something like that. They introduced themselves to me when they saw my ferrets. And finally, a couple of days ago, I was giving Timon one of his periodic going over. When I opened his mouth, he sneezed. I quickly discovered that Timon would sneeze if I touch his nose. I tried this several times and he sneezed each time. I tried it again today and he continues to sneeze. Anyone else experience this? Joe Timon ("AAAHHHHCCCHHHOOOOOO!!!") Phred ("Bless you.")
