RIP Little Hamster

When I got back from the Y today my niece informed me that the hamster had died.  She was very pragmatic about it.  I told her we could go bury it in the woods and she told me that it's illegal in North Carolina to bury animals in the woods.  I don't know if that's true, and to be honest I don't really care, but she didn't seem overly grief-stricken anyway so I dropped it.  Little hamster has now been laid to rest in a green biodegradable dog poo bag in the garbage can.
