But I’ll say it anyway: We really need to invest in some chinchillas. Not only do they have more stamina than hamsters, but when they wear out - voila! - stylish winter coat. BTW, where’s a certain high-count poster when you need him? If ever there was a time for redundant, vaguely incorrect advice, now is it! 😉 ---
