Sorry, Jon, but I have to look backwards at the long and rather violent nature of the WOMBAT on the net, and ask that it be made into the net.bizarre animal. It's history over the last year has been particularly bizarre, and I must place credit where credit is due and give my sterling vote to da WOMBAT.

Ok,Ok, so maybe I'm too new to the net, but how did the Wombat get the
distinction of being the Net.animal???

If you think wombats are cute, you've obviously never seen a wombat. My friendly neighborhood bug-eyed monster is quite fond of reminding me how homely wombats are. And unless this notesfile starts getting really BIZARRE, I sure don't want to be associated with it. And the obligatory bizarre note: According to Will Cuppy, Tibetans drink thirty to fifty cups of buttered tea a day. The tea is made from brick tea, parched barley meal, salt, soda, rancid Yak butter, and germs. "When you are about to die, a wombat is better than no company at all."

[...] I remember something about hamsters ... just can't call it back right now. Did it have to do with duct tape or what? Whose hamsters were they? Nice little bizarre animals though, just the item for mascots (mess cots?).
