@lchith I want one as a pet! they r the cutest hammy i've ever seen!

[joesmoe71]

@katana489 Unfortunately they're not nearly as tame as the pet varity, look up the "evil hamster" video on youtube and you'll see why. Although I hear people are trying to breed that out of them so they're easier to keep, I wouldn't mind having one if that works.

@kirafan68 It's a sad song. The hamster has four wives, they all die and then he's run over by a tractor. But then lots of kiddy songs are morbid.

[kirafan68]

@ladypeinforte : I know; the song is in a dialect of my native tongue. ;-)

[ladypeinforte]

@kirafan68 Is it a real folk song or did JBO invent it? It sounds just like a folk song of the Ruthless Rhymes type. It's my native tongue too though I haven't spoken it that much since about age five.

@kirafan68 I laughed my ass off when I heard it, too!
