Sure I remember the ol' days. Me an' all my brothers an' sisters havin' so much fun in that big ol' cage of ours. We always got fed when we were hungry, and water when we were thirsty. Things started... happening, though. First Hammel went missing. Then Hammelena. Then, one day, this big pink thing comes down and plops me here, where I been all my life.

--Old Mr. Hamstelby

-- Nervous little Hammelo

I just finished my new book, "Confessions of the Bagel"!

-- Hamlilbia, the weird one

If I have one piece of advice for you, it's to always, no matter what, GET AS FAR AWAY FROM MOVING OBJECTS AS POSSIBLE. THIS OVERRULES ANY OTHER RULE.
