Richard Gere would be proud.

edit: it is not a joke. he is an animal rights guy.

Attack of the giant Gerbils! Is this spelljammer? Wait till the gnomes find out about those eagles attacking their propulsion systems.

Those aren't gerbils- those are Giant Space Hamsters!

Poor Lemmiwinks....

Thanks, jaerdaph, now I'll be singing the Lemmiwinks song & reciting dialogue all day long....

A great adventure is waiting for you ahead
Hurry onward Lemmiwinks or you will soon be dead....

"But your adventures are just beginning, for you are no ordinary gerbil, Lemmiwinks. You are, the Gerbil King!"

Um no Richard Gere jokes please.

Could someone fill me in on Richard Gere and Gerbils and why there were a lot of jokes made?

Thanks in advance

eric's grandma wouldn't approve.

I saw "News Update" (SNL) with a joke concerning Richard Gere marrying a gerbil. Why do people laugh at his gerbil-loving? Seriously, if you can't post it here, even euphemistically, send it to me at maitredudonjon@hotmail.com...

Thanks

Wasn't Richard Gere and the gerbil thing the original urban myth?
