As I was pulling down the vents one by one and lookin' into the ducts and I was expecting a horde of zombie mice to come loping out, little arms sticking out, fleshy grey and moaning....."Brains!"

Both Hamsters are present and accounted for, so to quote our president, "There are foriegn influences causing trouble." 

Al Qaida Rodents?  Suicide bomber mice with their faces covered and a string of lit black cats wrapped around their tiny little bodies.  I can see them now, scurrying into my ductwork, yelling Islamic Phrases and Anti-American Dogma! Squeaky, yet empassioned, they blow themselves up and head on to paradise, in the arms of Allah, where all the running wheels are quiet and there's enough cheese and grain for everyone.
