take the owners of the Pet Shop to court

the fur and furballs generated by the   
two cats that are kept loose in the shop

 ÜÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÜ 
JzerO, created quite a stir last week by
giving a speech in the plaza. He called 
for a boycott (an ava-cott-o) for last  
weekend, protesting the Oracle's action 
or reducing magic wand powers.          
                                        
DadaSalesh rebutted the words of the    
anarchist. Then all the avatars present 
voiced their opinions in typical fashion
by shouting and jumping and waving their
arms. The response can not be determined
as no one was here to keep track of who 
showed up, last weekend.
