    On behalf of Happy, I am appalled at any mention of bunny swapping. (Why are bunnies being swapped anyway? Is this merely bunny trading or something more nefarious?)

    By “merely” I am not suggesting that trading a perfectly good bunny is a good thing. Bunnies have feelings, too. How would you FA reader feel if you were unceremoniously traded to the Garfield page?

    Please don’t trade me. I have pretty feet. And I can cook a mean pot of spaghetti sauce. (I cannot; however, cook with my feet, which is probably a good thing).

    Are we supposed to vote somebody off the Frog Applause island? Or is this a death lottery in which the loser is stoned to death in order to control population growth.

    Does Teresa bear a secret grudge against Happy, Happy, Happy!!!? Or is today’s collage instead meant as a message of support in the never-ending struggle against those who might harm bunnies? And what’s with the electric flowers? That sure does discourage sniffing them!

    By this time, I had become so incensed that the lines indicating fragrance from my flower centerpiece had become jagged bolts of un-containable energy. My least sound was terrifying thunder, and my mildest gesture was equal to the jaws of Cerberus closing about your head and shoulders to sever your upper body from the lower in one Hades-inspired bite.So I took a break from writing down my feelings to have a soothing cup of chamomile tea. Sure, it began as a cup of Raging, Boiling, Chamomile Death, but after a while things settled down a bit. And the honey was a nice touch, too.

    So then I was puzzled for a moment at the rage contained within this spare form. But then it became clear. Were it any greater, the rage would run out of control and be too much to contain. Were it lesser, then the rage could never take hold at all, and it would be cold and lifeless without the rage of some other to empower it. This was right. This was the boiling, seething rage I needed to steep the chamomile and draw out its inner spirit, that I might find comfort in its despair.
