(Thanks to Siouxie)

The two-headed turtle reminds this blog of an old joke:

The meanest animal on earth is the croc-igator. On one end it has the head of a crocodile, and on the other end it has the head of an alligator.

Q. But how does it poop?

A. That's why it's so mean.

Don't we look fabulous? We look as though at any moment we're going to sit down in adjacent stalls and begin tapping our feet. Not that there would be anything wrong with that!

Speaking of wrong: Also at the signing I received, via judi, a batch of Killer Death Cookies of Doom baked by Annie Where-but-here and sent all the way from California. I am pleased to report that I was able to restrain myself, so there were still approximately 1.5 cookies left when I got home. Thanks, Annie W-b-h.

ANOTHER VICTORY FOR THE DARK SIDE

This blog considered Gene Weingarten a friend. Until yesterday. Yesterday, on his Washington Post chat, he posted this photo:

Lil_squirrel

This is a cute li'l baby squirrel Gene found on his neighbor's walkway. Gene of course rescued it and gave it a cute li'l baby-squirrel name, Cholmondeley (pronounced 'Chumley," says Gene).  (I will pause here while you vomit.) Gene gave the squirrel to Animal Rescue. It's a touching story, except that of course THE WHOLE THING WAS A SETUP BY THE SQUIRRELS. Is Gene such a moron that he believes this is all a coincidence? Does he think there just happened to be a cute li'l baby squirrel on the walkway next to the house of a Washington Post columnist desperate for material? Does Gene does not realize that he has played right into the paws of the little furred bastards, who, while he gives them cute li'l names, are working to destroy our way of life, not to mention attacking our law-enforcement officers and our children?

Thanks, Gene. Thanks a lot. This blog can't wait to see what you "happen" to find on your neighbor's walkway tomorrow.

(Thanks to Peter Metrinko)
