Dear Mrs. NeoBox,
Is it just me or are there other pets out there afraid of the ghosts, too?Just the other day, while LobsterBoy (my Mynci) and I were playing some Kacheek Seek, some ghosts attacked us for no reason and took 50 of my NPs. That was LobsterBoy's food money. He was very frightened; all his Mynci hair was standing up straight into the air and his tail was between his legs like a whimpering dog. He was scared and jumped into my arms. Because of these ghosts LobsterBoy hasn't eaten for two whole days! He won't even peel back a banana or bite into a savory grilled cheese sandwich. I'm afraid he's going to starve. Something has to be done! Please help me! LobsterBoy shakes every time I say the "G" word. It's just not fair. Does anyone out there have any advice for me? I'm at my wits end. You know that after he sees a ghost it takes me thirty minutes just to convince LobsterBoy that it's all right to play Hungry Skeith (my favourite game). What can I do to calm LobsterBoy down? How do I get him to eat? Is there a way around the ghosts? I want to play Hungry Skeith already! I am so confused.
Please help,

Dear Gorilla0,
I hate those ghosts, too. Just the other day I was getting all these free gifts from the Money Tree and they ghosts took them all back. What's up with that? Anyway, LobsterBoy sounds like a very brave Mynci--NOT! I think you need to start training your LobsterBoy to not worry about the ghosts. Look, ghosts are going to steal your things once and a while. They are a part of the site! You just have to face it. If it weren't for the ghost there wouldn't be such a giving Money Tree. Did you ever stop to think that maybe if you donated a little more (or anything) to the Money Tree that the ghosts would stop harassing you and your Mynci? Well, you should stop by and drop off a few NPs or slap down a slab of Danish bacon.
On a gentler note, you should play a video for LobsterBoy to calm him down. Bruce Don't Cry is a good one. Get his mind off the ghosts by brushing his teeth or putting some green eye shadow on him. He'll be thankful (and prettier) and you'll get him to peel back some bananas. That way, you'll both be happy. And you, Gorilla0, can get to playing Hungry Skeith without worrying about your starving pet.
Watch out for those ghosts,
Mrs. NeoBox
