Ann, that's a ferret.
This conversation is becoming disturbing to me.
Might be even more so if you'd ever seen Cuddly Duddly. I think my brother had one of those. We're talking very, very large stuffed dog. Like, three or four feet tall.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I started the disturbing doggie discussion, and then had a conference call. Oh well.

It's a two-day sale, FYI.
Augh. Of course tickets go on sale when I have ten million things to do and no money.

sarameg, I love how they are saying houses in southwest Hampden (formerly called The Bottoms, I think) are "close to the Mill." The Mill is really classing the joint up!
anyway,

OK, this is freaky. How many soldiers have killed their favorite author in battle?
A German fighter ace has just learned that one of his 28 wartime 'kills' was his favourite author.
Messerschmidt pilot Horst Rippert, 88, said he would have held his fire if he had known the man flying the Lightning fighter was renowned French novelist Antoine de Saint-Exupery.
The fliers clashed in the skies over southern France in July 1944.
"He was below me," said Rippert. "I saw his markings, manoeuvred myself behind him and shot him down.
"If I had known it was Saint-Exupery, I would never have shot him down. I loved his books.
"I knew he was a French pilot, but he was probably my favourite author at the time."
Saint-Exupery published eight books before his death, including The Little Prince, which has been translated into more than 50 languages.
Rippert gunned down 28 Allied planes during the war and found out about Saint-Exupery only from a historian who is writing the author's biography.
"I am shocked and sorry," the ex-Luftwaffe pilot said yesterday. "Who knows what other great books he would have gone on to write?"
What can you say? (Other than "War sucks.")
