2008 is the Year of the Rat.  At least it's not the Year of the Cat or Chip would never shut-up about it.  Some people say I look like a rat, especially when I'm in the bath tub.  There is a movie about rats called Ratatouille.  He's a rat chef who cooks. (Is that redundant?)  I guess it's better to be a cooking rat than a rat cooking.  Officials in India want people to start eating rat meat to combat the crazy-high food prices.  Rodent steak is supposed to be pretty good, but I doubt you'll be seeing Rat on a Stick anytime soon in the USA.  All I can say is that Mighty Dog better not start sneaking rat into my food.  This little guy is so cute that I want him for a pet.
