Chinchillas are very squirrel-like and I had one as a pet until he passed away last summer.

I see. I'd only heard of them before in the context of animal rights campaigns. I never knew they were kept as pets. Sorry about the passing of yours. Pets are certainly special animals.

If your family members get nnoyed by this I'll deny saying it, but just get a second tree then. The madness cannot stop. You start restraining your penguin obsession today, and tomorrow it might be your Mac obsession. Obsession good. Homeless penguin ornaments bad.

I don't like animals that much but I would have to say that I like cats. I can't have any pets because I have asthma.

Dude, it is so out of control. Imagine it : a 12 foot tree, slathered in penguins. On top of that, the window ledges - and I have many due to the architecture, are also full of snowglobes, stuffed animals, pictures, figurines, animated penguins that sing and dance. You name it. It takes an entire day to put it all up. It has become an obsession more for my friends and family. They love buying them. Plus, it makes shopping for me quite simple. They are cute as all get out, but it's become like a plague of locusts.

As a matter of fact, I did talk this year about getting a 2nd tree for the bedroom. Just a tiny one for the smaller ornaments. Still, I told a few people there is a one ornament limit next year.

Funny, I have started muttering about unloading some of the Stevie/Mac collection. You're good, Jake.

I don't really have any phobias, but my closest thing would be a fear of sharks. Those faces.

I'm not a big cat fan but I work with several devotees. Give me a dumb dog any day.

Well, which one do you dislike the least?

I currently have a cat, whom I have attempted to murder twice, but didn't succeed. It kinda knows to stay away from me now, so its not that much of a pain.

I hate dogs the most.
