I'll just confirm what everyone suspects...
They are indeed "field mice".

The clue, "Offensive to the Max, ...well?",
eludes to Maxwell's "field" equations.
(Too obscure for most groups, but I figured I
could get away with it here.)


Best Regards,
Mike C.

well, I was thinking of a magnetic monopole but the mice made no sense :-)

	Well, I did get the clue, but I had to look up the Field Mice on
Google before I understood the pun...

That's what I thought too.  In fact I got the "field mice" pun first, 
then when I re-looked at the clue I felt that really confirmed my guess. 
  (Punny clue as well.)    ;-)

Clue:  Think portmanteau.

(Note:  Might take another clue, but my last one was stupid-easy.  And this
one's a true story; I run past this pun just about every day.)

A second clue would be welcomed.  A few words and phrases are rattling around
the crevices of the ol' cortex, but nothing has gone "click".

BTW, I agree that it is a very nice image, pun aside.

Just a book on a log.  Yep, a BOOK on a LOG...

Sorry it's not a better pun, but I really did run into this at about the time of
the first post.  The real thing is a tupperware container with a couple pens and
notebooks for people to write in.  I guess you have to be careful or else it
could get wet or covered in spider WEBs or something...

Gawd I hate sports metaphors.

Nothing obtuse here, just bad.

(And I think I know where to find the fork.)
