It was not even a dark and stormy night when a yellow mongoose went missing. . . .
Mark wrote us the following saga:
Hi -
Well, it appears we have a case of mongoose theft. I checked into the post office this afternoon. Their records show the package was delivered to my mailbox last week. They suggested I contact the police as there have been a number of thefts from rural mailboxes lately.
I only wish I was there to see the look on the thief's face when he opened the box...
OK; so I'll be needing another mongoose. Since this is in no way you fault, I'll pay. Consider the other payment a donation.
In fact, send me two of the dang things. Might as well up the ante.
So, can you please issue me a paypal invoice for two snappy yellow mongooses?
But please send them to my PO Box instead of the street address.
Onward.
We liked Mark's letter so much, we sent him two free mongoose replacements for the use of his letter. Although we're very sorry the original mongoose was stolen and the delivery delayed, it's almost worth it to hear the story! We love to hear from you :) We hear tell these two mongooses are on their way to Hawaii to learn to play the ukulele.

You are so funny! Wish I were there with those talented, music-loving mongoose!
