Wheee! Thanks! I love each and every one of your offerings!

I had no idea rabbits weren't kosher. In all Ex's and my conversations of what was kosher (and why or why not) rabbits never came up. It generally ran more to the exotic (ostriches? No, but Ex really tried to find out why not). I won't go into why he cared - that's a whole long story unto itself.

Thanks again!

Somewhere on the 'net there's a fabulous FAQ on which science fiction creatures are kosher.

Glad you liked.

Stan, Ollie, and Jim Bob. ROFL!

(Oh, Lorne would never rig a lottery in order to keep his Marines from bringing back half of the cute and fuzzy bits of Atlantis for the nurse that actually likes Yoni. Never in a million years...)

Nevermind that at least one of the fish is female...

Lorne is generally benevolent in his omniscience and does not use his power for personal gain... except in certain instances where he deems it better for the city's safety that he not be driven mad. :)

\o/ Nancy! Adorable. Oh, Lorne's Marines. I loved all the implied stories with Yoni's simple statement that the Marines have been looking for a pet for her. And of course, Yoni and Nancy. :D :D

Oh, you were totally popping up out of the woodwork for this one... ;)

The off-world conversations generally went like this: (1) Can we eat it, sir? (No.) (2) Can we bring it back for Doctor Clayton? (No!)

"Lorne's almost at the point of checking their pockets before we go home," he confirmed,

And that, there, was where I lost it. And not just because yesterday I saw some salesgirls dutifully lining up single-file, pulling out their empty pockets to show the store's security guard, as they walked out between the scanners on the way to their breaks.

And because the Three Stooges would've SO done it too. (Too bad kitties from the puma-like species would grow up to eat humans. :P)

Don't think they didn't consider the puma-things. Just because they eat officers doesn't mean that they don't make excellent pets. ;)
