Ah, so THAT is who I heard Wooo Woooing in the distance! Sure, we can
always use guard d*gs, to help keep the ruffian hoomans away - you never
know what those ghost busters will try to do! Jasper and Buster, my two
Boston Terrorists, will help, as long as they have a tennis ball or two
to play with when they are off duty.

Yowie,
I think the crew would be honored to have Evie as their hooman captain.
I know that she would be well loved by all. Since Amanda and Batty are
newbies at sea-faring, could Schmogg give them pointers? They are pretty
sure that they have enough to buy the "Mir", since the rest of my RB
crew have agreed to help with the purchase (Maus: just to get them out
of our fur for a while, right, Dweezel?) As soon as they finalize the
sale, we will have a re-christening and get ready for the voyage!

Lee, is Miss Violette a stern taskmaster? 'cause I know that there will
be some high jinks with my youngsters around. Maybe she can keep them in
line! (No, Batty. I don't think she would appreciate you sneaking up
behind her and biting her tail. Don't come to me when she swats you silly!)

Marina,
They can't wait to see Frank and Nikki! Maybe Nikki can teach them to
catch voles, and Frank can sing some suomish folk songs to them. They
need to broaden their musical horizons a bit.

Well, they are in their baskets, planning their new adventure. I will
send more as soon as they tell me what is up!

Mishi
