Hey you, want some of this?
Personally, I've stopped drinking the water around here. I've seen way to much strange stuff.

Bump! :sneaky2::innocent::cool2:
Saturday, I saw two things that I either haven't seen before or haven't seen in a long time. The first was a GRAY squirrel. They are so interbred around here that a true gray just doesn't exist. But this guy was a true gray. I haven't seen that in years. He was sitting in a Mulberry tree sampling mulberries. The tree must have been a good 40-45 feet tall. It's the largest Mulberry tree I've ever seen. Pretty impressive.
Nice. Some things are better left buried, don't ya' think? :sneaky2:Quote:

Less than half of the squirrels here apply to Harvard, and only 2/3 of those get accepted. However, 100% finish college, and 75% go on for a Masters or Doctorate. Most graduate from either M.I.T., B.U., B.C., Brown, or P.C. Less than 1% choose Yale. VERY FEW attend school out west. One little guy (Rufus) spent a semester at UCLA and hated it - he transfered to UNH (the rare state school attendee) for the skiing. Rufus always was a party animal of sorts.
MIT squirrels are, well, squirrely.
You guys are SOOO much better than the comedy channel!!! I like Squirrel fried especially. Rabbit I think I might be allergic to, even if you don't tell me what it is my stomach will.... feels like a flock(??), Flight(??) of Butterflies taking flight... But I CAN keep it down.:dead::euro:Hey I like that one I have a handlebar mustache!!!
Funny you should say that. Alfred (a gray squirrel) graduated from M.I.T. in '07. He's never used his engineering degree. Instead, he went to Foxwoods and, on a poker table SIDE BET, no less, won a chain of car washes. He hired a CEO to run the operation, and now spends all of his time eating imported acorns in the maple trees out back.Quote:

I know a field mouse like that. He graduated 27th in his class at Harvard. Majored in Quantum Physics. He took a year off to "find himself" and wound up living in a commune in Oregon. There's just no telling, is there?
No worries. I'm sure he'll be elected to the U.S. Senate soon enough.Quote:

Ken I want you to know I now cover the pool so no more will drown.
Thank you. No matter what we do, some still refuse to take swimming lessons. Maybe if we get speedos with swim team logos?Quote:

Good advice. Thanks for your concern.Quote:
