Good lord...what an imagination. That was quite funny and I enjoyed the green stuff being people line-a line that us old folks will never forget. Loved all the personalities. You should expand on the band of rodent bros in other stories.

Take care,

Hi Bill,
very funny piece here. nicely worked out and clever. lol
but I am oft' confused - technically you don't need the apostrophe here as oft is a word in its own right.
I'm sure he's takkin' - talkin'?
Shrew: Green pellets are -- PEOPLE! - lol Soylent Green. (I got this before I read the author notes -lol)

The spelling takkin is to achieve a Bronz accent for the word talkin?. Thanks for giving this a look. Bill
Comment from Dean Kuch
One of my favorite rodents (if one can make such a claim) hails from The Land Down Under, Bill.
It's called a Spinifex hopping mouse.
They're mostly seen at night, bounding across open ground on their large hind feet, with tails extended and the body almost horizontal.
Another, also from Australia, is sometimes referred to as the largest rodent in the world that also doubles as a marsupial, the Wombat. The field and pasture damage caused by wombat burrowing can be a destructive nuisance to ranchers and farmers. Wombats have been hunted for this behavior, as well as for their fur and simply for sport. The common wombat is still hunted as vermin. Space for all wombats is at a premium as farm and ranch lands increasingly replace natural space.
Now, if you're wondering why I've come to know so much about vermin and rodents, well...it's quite simple, really.
When you've been called a rat as much as I have you tend to believe it after awhile.
And hey, you gotta know who your friends are in a situation like that, wouldn't you agree?
I loved the character names you've chosen for my four little buddies.
Hilarious, myfiend friend!
Thanks for my laugh-of-the-day.

Sounds like you are a rodent enthusiast, Dean. They do appear often in horror, so your knowledge of them isn?t surprising. Thanks for the terrific review. Bill

Yeah, I'm a rodent connoisseur of sorts, Bill.
You're more than welcome.

Aw - poor Shrew - what a way to go. I really loved his accent, too.
A fine piece of work - very funny with great characterization. Very enjoyable to read, indeed!

Shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth or in others words be greedy! Losing ones life isn't worth eating you weights worth. It always ends badly it seems.

Congratulations Bill, only you can turn a meeting of several rodents into a remake of a classic science fiction move and manage to mix my favorite goof ball Ned iun the mix all at the same time. Then end it with a classic less on the evils of being greedy. Wow!

Very clever, Bill. I remember Soylent Green and as soon as I read "green pellets" I put it together. Cute names for the rodents--like Cash Shrew. Also liked rabies/rabbit babies. Marilyn
