Yes, thanks, Simon, for your off-list directives. I now recall having heard of this, shall we say, "alternative" use for gerbils, although at 16 inches long, I wonder if the Chinese Gerbils might not be very suitable for the Richard Gere usage.
Now I'm a bit worried as to why I hate gerbils as I do. I keep thinking that maybe something happened in my sleep, you know, the rodent version of alien abductions? I think I'll stop now. cheers, frank Simon King wrote: > Ann Sanfedele wrote > >PErhaps Simon will explain off list :) > >annsan > > I did - I didn't want to go "into" it here :-) > Simon -- "The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds.
