I dunno... rats in the First World War were as big as cats due to the abundance of "food" in the trenches.

Ugh. You don't hear (or *I* don't) hear about that, much. I can believe it, though. Norway (or is it brown?) rats get VERY large - and there must be strains that get larger.

I'm amused by the way you worded that. :)

But Westley, what about the R.O.U.S.s?

Rodents Of Unusual Size? Frankly, I don't think they exist.

The weird way I phrased it will probably hit me after I recover from my most recent dental visit. What'd I say?

HA! I had totally forgotten about that! ROFLMAO!

The way you reworded it from "you" to "I." ;-) But hey, I'm just a general reservoir of weirdness sometimes :)
