Kinda looks like Jerry's Icon/avatar...

But it's one of Diane's relatives... right?

Big ears are going around ya know. Look at our leader! Those things are in! help Of course! It's how a family of Tuners develop over the years. They also get real long arms, and acute sense of touch and the ability to hit the keys.

The bigger the ear, the better I can hear you with.



The bigger the eye, the better I can see you with.



The bigger the nose, well, I'm not sure about that advantage!

I'm "propped up" at the piano having a "grand" ole time while you guys just "string" us along and it's "Dampening" my mood. But, I don't mean to "harp" on you about it. Just using you as a "sound board" is all just in "case" I decide to get "hammered" later. I think I'll "bolt" outta here for now... hehehe. I have a bit to much on my "plate" at the moment. Thought I'd better add this too... grin ha

Hamsters reminded me of when my kids were little, changing diapers. If you didn't cover up the boy's "pee pee" you were liable to get squirted in the face at any given moment and I did more than once! Was waiting for that hamster to do likewise.... To bad... It didn't.

How does one explain that to a tech? "well, you see, I was feeding popcorn to Nigel over there, and he was lying on the keyboard, and I guess he had too much Sprite earlier during the movie, and....."

Although, they probably put out less liquid than a wrung out 'Shamwow' - so maybe there isn't much danger.

I was mostly worried at the end that his fur was caught between the keys!

Oh, btw, here is the ridiculous yuppie solution to that classic baby boy problem: For the parents who are too unresourcefu...onsumer product
