Well, I told myself I would NOT associate with these heathens anymore as they didnt even leave a little snack on the doorstep from that feast they had. Such affrontery. Everybody knows to leave a little snack on the doorstep for the kindly, industrious gnomes.

But......I can't see somebody helpless and not wanna help. And
that duck seems to be having a fowl time of it trying to revive the old bag. Never seen anything so pitiful and frantic as that stupid duck! So worked up it is, that it's molting. Feathers everywhere.

Well.....darnit....then here I go. *splash. gurgle. frantic splashing. gurgle gurgle gurgle* HEY! I CAN'T SWIM! I'm a wood gnome not a water nymph! How could I forget that???????? HELP HELP *gurgle splash gurgle*

*going under and thinking to himself....I have deja vu flashes here of being in this fix afore. Where is that darn French woman when you need her?*
