1. That's hilarious
2. My understanding is that romance novelists are paid to write stories of a certain length - 40,000 words for $1500 or somesuch. The writer in question probably finished up her story and realized she had some padding to do.
3. What the hell is up with having one whole sentence on page SIX of the article?

My wife is addicted to MM. What is interesting is that as much as it's a family show there is death, tragedy, and violence. Not too long ago the long-time leader was killed by a foe who invaded their tunnel. She sacrificed herself to save the offspring.

You guys are actually admitting to watching a soap opera about furry creatures?

Absolutely. I was hooked from the first episode. It isn't the Disney cartoon like saga you might think it is, either. There are no scripts, and the producers just let nature run its course, even if that means some of the main characters go off to that big burrow in the sky.

I watched the first one, and I actually liked it (though a bit slow). My GF didn't though, too real (death of cute things and such).
