    The Ferrets got the silver in the 4x100 meter slither. The Snakes took the gold, with rattler "running" the final leg, and Used Car Salesmen took the bronze.

    Discarded script.

    Kirk. Gentlemen, why is there a ferret in
    my quarters?

    Spock. I found it in my quarters last night
    captain. Nibbling my ears while I defragged.

    Kirk. Defragged?

    Spock. You call it dreaming.

    Kirk. Well I see there is a Pest control
    officer in the crew manifest so call him in.

    McKoy. He's dead Jim.

    Kirk. Why?

    McKoy. The ferret found his pet Tribbles.
    He could not take it.

    Kirk. Well put it in the brig.

    Spock. The bars are not close enough.

    Kirk. Checkov, you take it.

    Checkov. No captain.

    Kirk. Sulu, you take it.

    Sulu. No captain.

    Kirk. Scotty, you take it.

    Scotty. It found my supply of Teachers
    last time. No captain.

    Kirk. This is mutiny!

    Spock. No captain, self preservation.

    There's a lovely ferret planet
    colored green and colored blue
    There a partridge in a pear tree
    makes some ferrets wash their doo

    There's a jungle and a forest
    and a place called How do you Do?
    There the food is mainly rye bread
    which they use to build canoes

    Will ferrets born in 2012 have discus starships threaded to a likely confusion?

    This thread used to bother me until I was surgically altered by ferrets.

    I'm confused by your statement.

    Does that mean that ferrets were the surgeons for alterations done to your body. Or does that mean ferrets were surgically attached to your body? Or both?

    He could have said "surgically altered with
    ferrets"

    Then SWIFT would ask surgery along with surgery
    on ferrets or surgery attaching ferrets.

    Yabba yabba.

    We're all grownups and should think for ourselves without having to be told every detail. That's how surgery works.

    I don't want to think for myself and I'm going to hold my breath and stamp my feet until someone thinks for me.

    the qualification FRS (ferret of the royal college of sturgeons) is highly prized and takes years to achieve, in fact longer than the average lifespan of ferrets, so beware of any young ferret sturgeons, you may smell a rat.

    In California, ferrets may perform colonoscopies provided they are board certified and that they wear latex claw guards while working because, well, OUCH!
    So many bugs, so little time.

    A small town hospital feared losing its talent since they had nothing to do and were getting bored. To keep them entertained it got a Wii, an X-Box and a ping pong table for the break room. The staff played Wii. They played X-Box and they played ping pong, but they felt unfulfilled. They had chosen medicine as their profession to save lives, and they let admin know that it had better start providing them with such opportunities. Next day the break room had a trampoline.

    for a ferret colonoscopy,
    I paid a very handsome fee,
    In dollars,
    and in hollers,
    but the ferret would have done it free!

    That's where the ferrets do their washing. Plenty of hot water!

    Funny that SWIFT did not ask hot as in
    radio-active or hot as in thermally
    well endowed.

    Ferrets do not find that that funny. Funny that. Ask any hot ferret.

    All ferrets are a danger to themselves and must therefore be fitted with snug bubble wrap sweaters at all times. Maybe that is why they are hot.

    At sea, in the old times, ships would communicate by flinging Very Hot Ferrets to deliver messages. Submarines had to use Very Loud Ferrets.
