We don't swat mousies, kittycat, m'dear, we play with them. Found three little newborns, in a nest, cleaning out a garden shed. I tried to keep them alive, but man its difficult to nurse newborn mice.
Not to mention that they make a high pierced sqeaking that is evidently audible and attractive to cats. As lu found in the morning and was not happy with me. > > Oh dear, I think you may be bored and disappointed at not having a real > philosophical brawl with dmb.

Being of inherently non-violent in nature, I like to think of it as "philosophical tennis match" rather than "philosophical brawling". And I assure you Marsha, you're always a pleasure to play with. Even when you hit like a girl and use tricky backspins and dropshots and surprising smashes. dmb just ignores most of it and lets the ball sail past him. It's my fault of course, I didn't hit it to him in an easy-to-reach place and he has standards to maintain, after all, being the club pro and all... > How much awareness do we give to the things we are seeing.

Here we go again... But it's not! In fact just the opposite. The older I get, the more exciting the budding trees are.
