<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We sincerely hope you are kidding. If you mean to say that no basset in your house ever:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1) snatches food off the counter and EATS it</DIV>
<DIV>2) gets into a disagreement with another basset at your house over sleeping spot or pets or toys or whatever</DIV>
<DIV>3) scampers out the door and down the street and plays around while you are telling them to get back inside</DIV>
<DIV>4) goes through your bag and gets out interesting stuff and mouths it, possibly chewing it up</DIV>
<DIV>5) wakes you at 5AM because they want breakfast early</DIV>
<DIV>6) gets a hold of your assorted stuff and takes it out back to inspect it and drool on it and leaves it where you can't find it</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>then we think you might have bewitched your bassets and we aren't sure that is ok based on our understanding of how things work.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Sincerely,</DIV>
<DIV>Snoopy, OEBE, Curator of missing objects (who is SHOCKED too btw)</DIV>
<DIV>LuLu, konker extrodinair who wonders if she should visit</DIV>
<DIV>Gracie the princess who really just can't imagine .........</DIV></div></body></html>
