yeah, but what they didn't say is that the hamster was just waiting for her to fall asleep...
....then it would have attacked!

Don't you mean Richard Gere? Oh! sorry those were gerbils.

Gotta love Brit Slang... the runaway hamster scarpered.

Nah, I got nothin'.

Trapped in a bathroom with no handle on the door? Is British construction even worse than British dentistry?
She's lucky it was just a hampster. She could have wandered in there after someone who had had a large vegetarian meal the night before.

Hampster. Scarpered. You guys just kill me.

"Who is John Galt?"

Excellent. A Rand reference from a Rand earner. :-D

Why did she have to resort to chasing it? She should have just separated it from it's friends and career, impregnated it and locked it behind closed doors. I assure you - it won't try to get away - if it knows what's good for it.

Of course, Tom Cruise is the chosen one.

LOL Pun...er...Tom!!

Sharp CH! very sharp.
Posted by: Mot the Hoople | January 23, 2007 at 03:43 PM
The only reason I can think of that she could get in but not out is that the doorknob in the inside was missing. Which opens a whole new line of inquiry...

I don't know about anyone else, but that is the one room of the house on which I'd like to be able to close the door.

Link to Tom's Sun article totally blank... Just like his brain...

those english have a lot of naughty, newsworthy hamsters, don't they? my hamster has yet to make the news. i guess he'll just have to try harder. i've already gone through 18 of the damn things. they're very fragile.
Posted by: crossgirl | January 23, 2007 at 03:57 PM
We have hampsters in every bedroom. Very handy for holding dirty landry.
Posted by: Hanna | January 23, 2007 at 04:00 PM
I bet Tom Cruise was selected to star in this motion picture because his name anagrams to "Mice Tours"

Did he ever get fined for practicing psychiatry without a license?
Posted by: Hanna | January 23, 2007 at 04:05 PM
But did she manage to recapture the hamster??
Posted by: The Dread Pirate Chris | January 23, 2007 at 04:08 PM
If I was trapped in a room by a hamster, I would just go ahead and die in there. I wouldn't want anyone to know I was trapped by a HAMSTER. Why chase the little rat? They are usually so fat they cant run very fast. I heard they make a nice squishy sound when you step on 'em.

i'll bet this woman doesn't have too many nobel prizes either.
Posted by: mudstuffin | January 23, 2007 at 04:18 PM
Ha! She wouldn't have had this problem if she only had a cat that played 'fetch'.
And how do you lose the inside door handle to your bathroom door without noticing?
Posted by: KCSteve | January 23, 2007 at 04:26 PM
I'm thinking she might have taken it off on purpose. Don't even need batteris...Just sayin.
Posted by: mm | January 23, 2007 at 04:35 PM
I think Tom Crudes stars in "Runaway Gerbil"
Posted by: Jazzzz | January 23, 2007 at 09:13 PM
Ah, yes! All the apocalyptic books were clearly talking about Tom Cruise! He was clearly the four-faced figure--or the dragon--or...
"And that, my friends, is how I preemptively failed every bible class this college has to offer..."
