>>I prefer Smu's. Those darling little bowling pin creatures of Lil' Abner fame! They would hang around the barnyard all day. If they sensed hunger in a human (well, human cartoon characters!), they would immediately die (I know, because the cartoon would show X's for their eyes), and fall into a nearby skillet as they exhaled their last breath!

>>I wonder how smu's would react to a vamoire bat?:-)

Well aren't you the sunday comics historian!<g> I stand corrected [again]. I wish there were general purpose "Shmoos", for what ever crossed my mind. WHy limit life to just food Shmoos. Hmmm - Now what if I was thinking this and there was a Shmoo to accomodate Hmmmm. Nawww - somebody's already thought of it!:-)
