I know I haven't been here in ages, but I wanted to share some sad news with you all, as some of the old timers shared in the antics of my ferret friend, Basil.

Sadly, he passed away last night. He'd been living with my mom for the past 3 years, since it allowed him the company of his fellow ferrets. She sent me an IM this morning to tell me the news. [Frown]

He always greeted me the same whenever I came over, and I know he never forgot me, like I will never forget him.

So, is there some kind of an accession process we go through now that a moderator has died? [Wink]

So that's why the li'l bugger had only one post to his name... I thought Basil was some oldie gone MIA like Baloo. B)

Only the really old-time members can understand the enigma that is - was - Basil.

Perhaps they should put Risa Beach back up for a memorial service. . .

I'm sorry to hear about the little guy... but when I saw the title, my first thought was that John Cleese told his last biting retort.

We could make a big cauldron full of ratatouille, in his honor.
