Arg. Our office has five hamsters we keep secretly as a sort of office pets. They dont do much really, huddling together in their cage forming into furry balls or making little squeak noises now and then. Every morning we sort of do roll-call, report strength with them. (You know how hard it is to form up hamsters in a line?) 3 days ago we counted one squeak short. All work stopped as we looked all over for him. This morning, argh, we found the little prison breaker, in a drain, dead. Argh. We laid his little dead body in an empty perfume box (now why one of my guys has that with him is another question altogerther), did a poetic benediction like the beginning of the movie - Braveheart, playing air-bag-pipes and all and buried our comrade at the nearby garden. The little fella went for freedom and died.... Arg.
