No, being a ferret is *not* an insult but rather a compliment. Pound for pound if you got to pick a fight don't pick one with felines or mustellids they *will* kick your weasy little butt.
I meant no insult to ferrets. I like ferrets. (Yes, I know, you know ferrets, ferrets are friends of yours, and I'm no ferret. :-)) In fact, I used ferrets on purpose, because I like them, and mere was a direct reference to relative size and nothing else. Could you admit, that in a showdown between a ferret and a lion, the ferret would be best served using his brain rather than his claws? I knew you could...
