not ready again!

Well, (tapping foot) - it has happened again- we are woefully unprepared -again! Has anyone marshalled the squirrels? ( and checked their colour co-ordination?)
No-
Has anyone predicted the route yet?
No-
( shaking head and taking cover- under the covers)

I found a muskrat.

We were not invited this year because of last year's little accident.

I found out that marmots are an endangered species. Perhaps someone should help them breed more.

We could set up a fund for library cards based on...oh. I thought you said "read" more. Never mind.

The monkeys have been around, but not this week. And they are breeding like flies.

Like flies?

Dratted flying monkeys.

They can trash the kitchen completely in the bat of an eye.

*sigh* my fellow members. Do you not remember the mistakes we made in 1914?
Our ancillary 'helpers' were useless as WE lost control.

Hopefully, never again.

That's odd . . . I have no memory of 1914 at all. I suspect foul play -- obviously our enemies have obtained a mind-wiping device.

Hey, who let the chickens loose in here? Look how they've fowled the floor!

Well, if people will keep egging them on . . .
