Last night I was singing "Down By The Old Mill Stream" and while doing so I noticed that a guinea pig in the next room raised her little head and froze in a catatonic state during my entire rendition. Frozen as if in a trance. Not moving at all. As soon as I stopped, the little creature ran terrified into a hidey hole-- just like in a cartoon, slightly levitating in the air with her tiny feet moving rapidly, then landing on the floor and instantly zipping away while leaving a little cloud of guinea pig dust. So, if Olympia is in danger of being invaded by a wave of malicious guinea pigs, give me a microphone with big speakers and I can have my moment of glory. I have been called the 2nd worst singer in the world. My friend Jim, a longshoreman, is actually the worst. Imagine the horrific vast power we could unleash while performing a duet of Carpenters' songs.

Guinea pigs are so
Submitted by OperaGirl on Sun, 02/25/2007 - 1:16pm.Guinea pigs are so overrated. We had one several years ago and he was the biggest guinea pig we'd ever seen. Seriously - he was the size of a cat. His name was Tom Jones. We gave him back to the pet store because he was such a jerk and obviously needed major therapy.
