    Since the retirement of Gene Shalit, his "moustache", the alpha male of the ferret world, has taken back the title belt in the underground ferret wrestling circuit.

    In cold weather, you can wear one around the shoulders. It looks rather smart .

    In an unexpected development, the recent sequencing of the ferret genome has revealed that ferrets are actually large, fuzzy worms.

    Following the sequencing of the ferret genome scientists worldwide are eagerly awaiting the results, busily synthesizing the first ferret gnome. They're referring to him as Jerome Ferret-Gnome, and he's already been offered several action scripts from Hollywood boffins.

    Justin Beiber has been found to have over 75% ferret genes. His fans say it just makes him cuter.

    Well that certainly explains his singing.

    Hmmm...Justin Bieber wasn't nearly as bad as I was lead to believe.
    So many bugs, so little time.

    I wonder if it would be possible to knit ferrets together to make a coat? And what knot would you use? And how many would be required for say a knee length coat. And what would you do about sitting down? You wouldn't want to sit on ferrets (they don't look very comfortable) And would they be heads up, or heads down?

    The ferrets say they're fine, but were wondering when dinner was being sent down.

    Well, the ferrets need to fend for themselves. We've sent them toothpicks and sharpened chopsticks, and we wish them well in their hunting.

    Oh, that's too bad. I was looking for some coarse or medium ferrets; the grit wears too quickly on the fine ferrets.

    I know this goes against all that we hold dear in this thread, but have you thought about starting with otters before using the fine ferrets?

    Angelina Jolie recommended the ferrets. She was married to Billy Bob Thornton, so she should know.

    Stephen Sondheim has announced he is writing a musical based on the life of Pickles the Ferret. In order to save time he is just writing new lyrics to the music in Wagner's Die Meistersinger von Nurnberg. With a working title of Pickleshauben it will tell the story of a ferret's rise from obscurity to the pinnacle of temporal power, only to be done in by personal greed and an unconquerable obsession with chasing the red dot on the floor.

    Sondheim said "The story is similar to Wallenstein, but not very similar."

    My grandma used to say "You can throw a blanket on the ferrets, but you can't make it rain".

    None of us knew what it meant either.

    Two things that are inappropriate to take into a movie theatre - 1, a blanket and 2, a ferret.

    I've tried, but they keep finding me too quickly. I think they are cheating, and are peeking when I go hide. Plus, they only can count up to 17.

    They can count to 17 because their native delicacy, frozen fruit cups, come in exactly 17 flavours.

    Well, nearly exactly.

    I've been selected to organize the company Christmas luncheon again. So, I'm hoping for some help. Is ferret soup similar to possum pie? Or is it closer to a rabbit stew?

    And just what exactly do the ferrets put in the soup? How do their little hands hold the ladle? Do you have to project a red laser pointer into the pot to get them to stir it? Do they need help chopping the veggies, or do they just use their teeth? You would think they'd burn themselves horribly running all over a hot stove top tossing in the ingredients.
