Alcuin of York:

Actually it IS a zoo (2 cats, 2 dogs, gerbils, rats, fish, and children are domesticated residents - mostly domesticated anyway). Normally I feed the chipmunks and squirrels etc OUTside. I truly love animals (including my children). I give animal magnitism a whole new twist.

Maybe I sould put in prose form... perhaps the line breaks are too jaring -- thanks very much!
