In a precise, highly coordinated attack earlier today, a suspected terrorist lashed out at Flywriter HQ. Early indications suggest that the attack was carried out by Brooke the Cairn terrier (aka Ch. Cairncroft Brazen Brooke):
This callous, heinous, vicious attack wiped out the remaining brown hackle supply at Flywriter HQ. Fortunately, our security officials were able to mitigate any damage to the remaining inventory of hooks, thread, chenille, bead heads, pheasant tails, and a large collection of additional hackle.
The attack appears to have been timed to roughly coincide with the anniversary of the events of May 7, 2010, during which Brooke and her long time mentor and companion, Kyra, launched an equally brutal attack targeting stockpiles of white and grizzly hackle housed in the same secured facility.
Brooke has been placed on a watch list in response to credible intelligence suggesting a planned future attack on the vegetable garden. Despite recent security enhancements to the garden, it remains vulnerable to assault, given the inadequate perimeter fencing.
All anglers are urged to practice heightened vigilance and be on the lookout for possible copycat attacks, particularly from small terriers.
Godspeed, from the Command Post...

Uncivilized House Guests (or, the Flywriter gets hit by terrorists)
Some may have wondered if I was being a little paranoid in demanding background investigations for cairn terriers prior to allowing them anywhere near the vegetable garden.
Tonight, I had a couple of them visit the house, causing me to fall victim to a low-level domestic terrorist attack. They came to the house under the guise of needing "dog-sitting" while their owners (ahem) ventured out on a "getaway" to an unspecified mountain resort community. I say unspecified to protect the innocent.
A mere two hours after infiltrating my quiet abode in an operation utilizing unprecedented espionage tradecraft, the terrorists struck. Their intended victims? Two large bunches of entirely innocent dry fly hackle; one white, one bi-racial. The aftermath was sheer carnage:
I'm happy to report that with prompt medical attention, both bunches of hackle are expected to survive, although they have been permanently disfigured.
The Flywriter is offering a reward for the successful prosecution of the suspected saboteurs, identified only be the nommes-de-guerre of "Brooke" and "Kyra."
Additional investigation indicates that the suspects caused more carnage than originally thought, likely the result of a separate, coordinated attack on the garden. Exhibits A and B for the record document surreptitious entry into carrot and corn holdings.
