Are they eating smores?
It's not a plague - it's a jamboree.

Marmots are the Bubba's of the squirrel world.
Posted by: Cheryl Howard | August 27, 2009 at 09:15 AM
But don't these realize Marmot Plague WBAGNFARB and a Stephen Baldwin movie?
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | August 27, 2009 at 09:28 AM
For some reason, that picture reminds me of the scene from The Sound of Music.
(...flashbacks from the '70s, I guess...)

Is it me or does #4 have testicules for a jaw?
ok...nevermind.

Excellent Big Lebowski quote, Dude.

Siouxie...ya mean like when Butters was "Boy with Balls on Chin"?
Posted by: Brian | August 27, 2009 at 09:56 AM
When life gives you marmots, make marmotlade.
And fuzzy slippers.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | August 27, 2009 at 10:13 AM
F -it.... let's go bowling
Posted by: Jazzzz | August 27, 2009 at 10:13 AM
Exactly, Brian! fuzzy balls!
Posted by: Siouxie | August 27, 2009 at 10:22 AM
Shut the f... up, Donny!
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | August 27, 2009 at 10:24 AM
Nice marmot.
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | August 27, 2009 at 10:26 AM
"Screw Germany. Let's get toasted and crash that ferret party in Ohio. Then let's find that stupid Squirrelizer and kick his ass."
Posted by: Marmot | August 27, 2009 at 10:33 AM
Okay, Annie...you were the first to mention Germany, so now I'll go ahead and say it:
Any time a German says, "There are simply too many!", I get nervous.
Posted by: Ich bin ein marmot | August 27, 2009 at 11:14 AM
Are they eating cookies or toast? I agree with one of the posters on that article. Quit feeding them breakfast and maybe they'll move along. btw Jeff, who's Donny and why do you want him to shut up? Just curious.
Posted by: nursecindy | August 27, 2009 at 11:23 AM
Key names: Gottfried Mayrock and Marmota marmotini
Posted by: oneblankspace | August 27, 2009 at 11:28 AM
So if the Germans are so furious about the marmot scourge why are they feeding them graham crackers?
Discuss.
Posted by: Cheesewiz | August 27, 2009 at 11:28 AM
Any word on the French?
Posted by: Siouxie | August 27, 2009 at 11:58 AM
Well, the French surrendered to the Marmots, and the Italians immediately declared war on the French.
Posted by: pogo | August 27, 2009 at 12:05 PM
cindy, it's a quote from The Big Lebowski.
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | August 27, 2009 at 12:14 PM
Thanks Jeff. I usually just watch 'chick flicks' so I haven't seen that one. I also have a confession. I cheated on the blog. I was just at another blog ripping into some PETA supporters. I told them to quit eating so many baloney sandwiches because I thought they were full. I also told them I know a lot of chunky vegetarians since their arguement was if you eat vegetarian you will be skinny. Last time I checked cookies are vegetarian. I'm so ashamed.
Posted by: nursecindy | August 27, 2009 at 01:04 PM
Marmot, eh? Sounds French, to me.
Posted by: CJrun | August 27, 2009 at 01:19 PM
So that's where Marmite comes from!
Posted by: Mr Death | August 27, 2009 at 01:45 PM
Marmot said there'd be days like this....
Posted by: Diva | August 27, 2009 at 01:56 PM
Brian does this remind you of the Sound of Music?
Posted by: nursecindy | August 27, 2009 at 02:27 PM
It was inevitable.
Posted by: Horace LaBadie | August 27, 2009 at 03:08 PM
OK....
EVERYBODY SING NOW...
♫"The Hills are aliiiive...
...with the sound of rooooodents...!"♫
Posted by: Brian | August 27, 2009 at 03:39 PM
Bravo Brian!
Posted by: Jan Crozier | August 27, 2009 at 03:55 PM
All this reminds me of those pictures from the South years ago where one fountain was labeled " Squirrels " and the other was labeled " Marmots " .
Posted by: Clankazoid | August 27, 2009 at 04:09 PM
I think that this is much more realistic.
Posted by: Horace LaBadie | August 27, 2009 at 05:21 PM
LOL Brilliant, Brian!!
Posted by: Siouxie | August 27, 2009 at 07:42 PM
I am furious bellow.
Posted by: hobbleswithbovines | August 27, 2009 at 09:37 PM
Brian, that's beautiful.
Posted by: danceswithvowels | August 27, 2009 at 09:39 PM
Brian, I don't want it to stop anymore.

Dances, you would definitely get a B+ in my Photoshop class.
Posted by: Tash | August 27, 2009 at 11:21 PM
Thanks, Tash! Better than I deserve, really, since I was going for a truly cheesy look but without actually doing any real work. (The blue crosshairs in the original were trouble enough all by themselves.)
Posted by: danceswithvowels | August 27, 2009 at 11:47 PM
I thought about replacing the S'mores with harmonicas, but the danger passed quickly.
Posted by: danceswithvowels | August 27, 2009 at 11:50 PM
I had a marmotini once. It was almost as good as the hair of the dog that bit ya.
Posted by: ScottMGS | August 28, 2009 at 02:08 AM
Mom?
Posted by: bonmot | August 28, 2009 at 09:37 AM
Dances...5 geezer points for I am furious...
Posted by: Betsy | August 28, 2009 at 03:08 PM
Thanks, Betsy! Apparently there aren't too many of us geezers around who remember naughty movies with Obfuscation In Their Titles, which WBAGNFANoWaveB. I'll never eat S'mores in these Alps again.
