If animal-rights groups or the gossip media get wind of your baticides, we may become the subject of psychological studies on potential serial killers. Well, not exactly "potential" in your case.

And one guy said, "Merry Christmas Gabrielle and Xena". Think he meant our grrls or is he maybe talking to his cats? Or maybe pet reindeer? "Xena the red-nosed reindeer. You'll go down in history." I could see it. KT ========================================================= This has been a message to the chakram-refugees list.

Sounds a bit like one of those things out of Batman - everything prefixed with 'bat'. Nearly as handy a prefix as 'Gab', actually. (Not that I'm comparing Gabs with a bat - though she did look cool and vaguely batlike crawling backwards up the wall in Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. :) > but apparently one got left behind and > got into my house .

If Ivan's familiar with your habits vis-a-vis sharp and deadly weapons I don't blame him. I would too. Umm, I won't even mention bats in the belfry but, errr, Ivan's a Russian name, right? You've got Reds Under The Bed! > I sighed and took out my FIN katana and dispatched the bat after > wreaking havoc on two bookcases and numerous video tapes. Ouch! What did that do to the edge on the katana? They're not meant to be used as carpentry tools! Remember how miffed Xena was when Gabs was trying to cut down a tree with her sword in Return of Callisto. Hmmm.... Gabs.... swords... wood... guess it figures. Now you see why I, as a tree-hugging greenie, disapprove of Gabs. :) > I am not lying I > killed it with a Xena katana - I am beginning to find my relationship with > bats becoming very odd to say the least. > > CherylA I should think the bats would think 'odd' to be rather an understatement. Ummm, Cheryl dear, are you sure you should be handling deadly weapons? Harmless warm-blooded mammals and the furniture this week, the neighbours' dogs next week, the neighbours' kids the week after.... pretty soon you'll be screaming 'Kill 'em all' and laying waste entire neighbourhoods. I earnestly suggest you don't watch 'The Debt' or Sin Trades on your own. cr ... smugly aware that he lives on a different continent from Cheryl.... ========================================================= This has been a message to the chakram-refugees list.
