    Yes there was. However, the waters were not really troubled... more like slightly annoyed.

    Troubled waters? Perhaps they need hydropsycheanalysis?

    Hahhahhahahahahaha!

    Wait. I'm the only one here likely to get that. It wasn't even particularly funny. Okay, nevermind.

    The Ceylon Silver Girl was a coded reference to the Silver Surfer. It doesn't work as well with The Sri Lanka Silver Girl.

    Ferrets have a limited memory capacity, on the order if 5Gb (depending on species).

    Note: in this context, Gb stands for Goose brains.

    And a word to the wise, though if they're so wise I don't know why they don't already know this but still: those slots aren't for memory sticks.

    I now have a very angry curator on my hands.

    The Case of the Very Angry Curator is the least known of Erle Stanley Gardner's Perry Mason novels. It featured a closed room death by means of paradichlorobenzene. Did the very angry curator do it? You'll have to read the book to find out.

    As Isaac Asimov pointed out, if you sing "Paradimethylaminobenzaldehyde" to the tune of "The Irish Washerwoman", most people will think you can speak Gaelic.

    It's us or them. Consume them before they consume us.

    You betcha! Now I'm turning green and my clothes are starting to split.

    I'm either turning into the Hulk or my body is beginning to decompose.

    My clothes are starting to split too, and my body is decomposing, but I'm not turning green. I must be doing something wrong.

    Might I suggest a trip to the clinic? Just tell them you're there for head lice to save embarrassment.

    When the economy collpases embarrassment will become a hot commodity. If you save up your embarrassment now, it will keep you warm in winter.

    Given the middle syllables of the word embarrassment, that seems counterintuitive.

    That's right, with ferret fur, you can paint the bathroom in one coat.

    Questions:

    Should golf tournaments have paddy wagons
    ready to incarcerate any who shout "IN THE
    HOLE"

    Will the water on the Moon be pure enough
    for any distillerys?

    Will Mars ever get a final coat?

    Around this time of the year they're known as St. Paddy Wagons, and they have micro-distilleries in the back, which come in very handy at golf tournaments.

    Scientists at the Lawrence Liverwurst National Laboratory have been exploring the use of ferret droppings as an alternate fuel source. They usually do this exploring Friday evenings while dancing on the bar at Hooters. Progress is slow, with predictions of a self-sustaining ferret poop pile at least fifty years from now.

    Ferret poop energy conversion always seems to be fifty years away.

    I'll just add that a layer of clingfilm wrap
    over the keyboard is good for keeping ferret
    ummm...bad stuff.. from getting between the
    keys. Also marmalade, coffee, egg etc.

    The Cupboard Space Flight centre of Hairyland
    recommends this for the ISS.
