Suckah.

You want to have a good laugh at my expense?  Of COURSE you do.

We still haven't given away the kittens.  Want to know why?  Because that's like trying to give away snow to Eskimos, or handing out some crazy at an asylum.

We've offered these cats to everyone, and people JUST LAUGH.  There are several fliers at the local grocery store, convenience store, and ads in the local paper for free cats.  I do believe the market for kittens is flooded.  There is literally no one upon whom we can foist them. 

I've even offered to ship them out of state -- how cool would it be to have a cat imported from West Virginia?  I mean, it's so EXOTIC.  It would be even better if I could convince just one or six people of this.

You send me a kitten and I will cut you.

And what's an "esimo"? Seriously, make something up.

Ahem. Then don't check your mail.

What do you mean "esimo?" Clearly, you must be talking about someone that doesn't spell-check their entries.

Ah, give her a break about the Eskimo typo. She's apparently fixed it... and, besides, she's got kittens crawling all over her keyboard. :^)

I'd take one, if I could. Darrell would beat me. And then I'd get another one, and another one, and another one...

I still want a made up definition. COME ON!
OK, I'll start.

"Esemo" meaning small woodland people who live in any dramatic climates, as long as there is wood nearby. Known for their shockingly pink hair which naturally as such and their secretive nature, they were often mistaken for mythical wood sprites. Found today to have an uncanny knack for the law, you'll most likely find a modern esemo standing in front of this nations Supreme Court Justices, making a case where one would never expect a win.

What's wrong with those West Virginians? Who wouldn't want cuddly fluffy kitties?

Good Luck. Sorry I can't help you, I have 3 wv cats and one wv hillbilly mutt that just cost me 300 dollars at the vet.

I like kittens. But I couldn't eat a whole one.

And here I just committed to take a kitten off the hands of one of our aunt's. They'll be ready to come home in a week. But when Aunt Lola first called me to ask me if my daughter could have one? I LAUGHED LIKE A HYENA IN HER EAR.

Good luck!

Oh man that sucks. Don't send them here. I'm serious. you will be Daphne Black and Blue. Not to rub it in or anything, but there was just a special advertised on the radio for a local vet who was fixing cats for $10 bucks a pop. Yup. Damn West Virginia. You know where else they fix cats cheap? In Vegas.

Okay, I made that last part up.
