circuits that radiateth, and upon which the worketh, are grounded and

While I think that your arrival was bad to the point that you caused
your own name to be added to the etiquette rules list.  This email is a
prime example of why that was.

Eric might also be interested to know that your candy ass was spanked so
bad on the OT list that you ran back over here.

Now stop growling and snapping at the zoo visitors, or your daily supply
of weed will be sharply curtailed.

 Ah yes, Once again, Joe Hill opens his yap and eloquent responses spew out.

It's the pothead thing.  Like alchoholism, the death of a critical
number of neurons leads to serotonin imbalance, lack of comprehension
and a corresponding need to emit snaps and growls.

Keep visitors away from the cage for two months, and administer a forced
rectal exam every day during that period until the behavior subsides.
