    Scientists have confirmed that ferrets can perform quantum tunneling.

    Once thought purely decorative, ferret beads have now been shown to absorb high frequency EMF, so those early ferret radio hampsters were right after all.

    The Hayling Island hampster is a dead ringer for the Saskatchewan ostrich ferret.

    ....which means they can be persuaded. That's logic.

    And there are many examples of ferret pun-ishment in this thread. The question is, did we deserve it?

    Actually, the ferrets have Free Willy. It's their favorite movie.

    It was reported that the announced engagement of Angelina Jolie to Brad Pitt caused much wailing in the ferret community. However, upon further investigation, it was discovered that it actually led to much "whaling" in the ferret community. We are uncertain at this time where they got the harpoons.

    Wherever they got them, they are currently seeking their prey on the Great Nebraska Sea.

    They seek the great white ferret that roams the oceans looking for peace and revenge, and Wales, in that order.

    Now it can be told: the Titanic actually struck the Great White Ferret.

    Why did the old Persians hold the sea holy? Why did the Greeks give it a separate deity, and own brother of Jove? Surely all this is not without meaning.

    It is without meaning. And don't call me Shirley.

    In a stunning reversal, Keith Moon has now accepted the invitation to perform at the 2012 Olympics. However, he will be running the Zombie Ferret Circus rather than playing with the Who.

    In ancient Rome, reentry heat shields were made from ablative absolutes.

    Someone that is always early is ablate, but saying "ablate" is offensive when spoken in the presence of those who have well defined abs. Its also offensive at funerals, no matter who or whom is present.

    Wagner's opera "Die Meisterferret von Nurbugring" has never been performed, due to the difficulty of driving a Formula 1 race car at 200 mph on stage.

    I don't see the difficulty, unless one wants to do laps. Wusses...
