Ferrets are known for their mathematical ability. Amoebae, on the other hand, are clueless; they multiply by dividing!
I just had to add my comment.
Hope it hasn't subtracted from the tone of this discourse--it certainly wasn't calculated to.

Good idea but I'm sure that Rasalom has the right connections to obtain the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch.
BTW, you've got to see this site...

I can't decide if I like Bogart better as a hero or a bad guy.

Have no fear, old Biggles--we've got no squares (to use 50s hipster patois) here, but if any appear, we'll root them out.

My bid goes for the gentle Greyhound. A tall slender Egyptian looking woman with a Greyhound. They are the only dog mentioned in the bible after all. (I've heard this, i just don't know what book this occurs.)

If they get bent out of shape, they'll be trapezoids.

Or are things getting weirder than even this old Fortean knows? :eek:Well, ferrets are specialists in non-Newtonian physics and inexplicable phenomena. As for the multiplication, that phenomenon is so well known that the ferret-loving community even has a name for it: Ferret Math. Once you have a ferret it becomes impossible to resist getting another, and another, and ...
You badger lovers might want to check out http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/badgers/. I suggest that everyone else stay away from this, however, since it is difficult to get out of your mind once you've seen it. (Fortunately the site also has a built-in antidote in case you disregard my warning: http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/kenya/, or the live-action version at http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/kenya+live/. Those will also take over your mind, but they're easier to live with.

Badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger MUSHROOM MUSHROOM! I love that site; it's so odd! Magical Trevor was the most addicting song I've found.
What about all the reptiles or avians? Mammals seem to be getting all the attention here (though personally I love huskies and collies when it comes to dogs). How about a lady with a big snake around her neck, or a pair of anoles on her shoulder? Or a talking parrot? That would get attention.

I second the "gentle greyhound" or better yet, suggest a lurcher. Lurchers are the predecessors to greyhounds (whippetsand other coursing dogs.)
They were bred by the gypsies for poaching.... and are essentially a combination of sight/scent and hearding dogs - always looking like the sight hound...
There are some fascinating books on lurchers by Brian Plummer as well as EG Walsh (amazon.co.uk).
My newest lurcher (my 3rd) was rescued from the Galway SPCA and, like most greyhounds, is a bit of a lounge lizard... I am having a terrible time trying to get her out of bed this morning for her walk....
