We wear toques here in Canuckistan…wouldn’t sew a raccoon tail on one of those.

Hope you stay warm and safe during the storm, have a nice weekend! 🙂

How about a generously-cut beret. You could quicky tuck the tail inside as needed. You are so cool, you could start a whole new style 😉

Batten the hatches.

A palaver, and an indaba, and a panchayat and a pow-wow,
preferably held on the edge of the desert, but not necessarily.

We got moths several years ago, snuck in no doubt on civil war wool uniforms or blankets.

They have since been the small bane of our closet.
I have cedared, and moth balled, and Dr Killinghamed them. Relentlessly, to no avail.

They are numbered amongst the invading insects that are shot on sight, as opposed to wasps and bees and spiders (oh my!) And the occasionally lost battle that are captured and released to terrorize the world outside our doorway.

I dislikes them, I does.

As for the fine tan sheep skin mad bomber hat, alas, a mouse took up residence in it while I was away installing software, and Mrs D dumped the offender, and hat, in the bin.
The world shall not see it’s like again.

I can hook you up with all the coonskins you could want.
I get an open permit to trap and euthanize the things every other year or so.

You could tell your pellimisic friend that the racoon tail is fake. She’s very unlikely to have overcome her hatred long enough to now be able to distinguish fake from real.

p.s. — Re: pellimisic. I just made that word up from Latin roots meaning, duh, hater of fur.

@uncle Al – 👍. 😆

Remember Uncle A – ALL the words we have were made up.

Yeah, that’s true, Durned. But I made THAT ONE up! 🦚

Uncle Al’s creed:

This is my word. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

On another note, I once lost a lovely, lovely Burberry trench coat to moths. They just ate up the front in an area where there was no pretending that I hadn’t noticed the damage. Yeah….

@Some Veg — Yes, I admit that at times I can be quite terrortorial. 🙄😼

POSTED: TRESPASSERS
- WILL BE PEED ON -

Husband had a custom made coyote fur hat (coyotes trapped on our land in KS). Think fur trapper style with fold down ear flaps. He wore that every winter when we lived in the north. He wore it the several times we went to Iceland. We sent it to my brother in CO when we moved south. He still misses that hat…me not so much.
