I get a lot of these
Uncle B keeps asking me what I’m going to post tonight, and I keep telling him and telling him.
Stoopid badger.
Good weekend, everyone!

Uh Oh. Someone call Richard Riddick and tell him that the Night Predators have mutated…

Nah. Common, everyday Cave Cervines.
And they’ve got antlers, so they’re staglamites…

I fear American Badgers must be as stupid as English ones, cause I don’t get it.
UB, my English Cousin, when she takes you in vain like that, just remind her of the relative sizes of Badgers and Stoats, and then smile gently, showing all you teeths.

You get a lot of blind harts piercing the walls of Badger House?
Hmm…that’s some weather y’all get.

Aieee! They have no eyes. And the walls appear to have curvature. Or, am I drunk?
This one gives me the creeps, I don’t know why, but it does.

That Star Trek ep always freaked me out, too, Allen.
Scott, you clearly don’t spend enough time browsing the humor of seven-year-olds. Those are no-eye deer, my man.

See, that’s the problem right there. If you’d a kept it to the 4 year old idea of humor, I might a got it.
That seven-year-old stuff is just too suh- so- sof- hard for me.
/And it finally occurs to me you were addressing the other Scott.

Sorry UB, most of the Badgers I know pack .45’s or .44 Magnums….. 😉

Hechler & Koch USP45F here. I shall consider my Colt MK4 / Series 70 Government Model .45ACP as assigned to the use of Uncle Badger, so he can say he has one, too. At least until England becomes a free country, and he can buy his own.
Stoaty, feel free to think of me as stupid, as well as an ugly Badger, as it is quite obvious what they are, now that you explain.

I guess I needed some nightmare fuel.
Or someone THOUGHT I did.

Wheee That was fun. Just had the biggest earthquake I’ve felt in a while. Nothing I like more on a Friday night than a good scare.

Where was that earthquake, David…and how much shakin’ did you experience?

The USGS sez it was a 5.9, and it was mildly concerning for a bit. About 30 miles away from chez moi so in the epicentre bad things may have happened. There are definite advantages to living in Costa Rica vs. the UK, but seismic stability is not one of them.

Geez, I have a 7 year old, and it still took me two reads to get it…

Hmmm, this reminds me of a hymn we used to sing in church:
“Gladly, The Cross-Eyed Bear”

The Museum of the Lone Star Brewery (official beer of the State of Texas) has a Hall of Horns, which features Boone & Crockett grade trophy mounts. One of them is the biggest whitetail deer ever taken by a blind hunter. No, seriously. It was really there the last visit I made. So it was maybe 20 years ago, but I made 2 visits with 2 different girlfriends, and they’ll back me up on this.
Strangely enough, the mounted head taken by the blind hunter DID in fact have eyes.
Perhaps there’s some sort of quid pro quo going on here.,

Three blind moose. Three blind moose.
See how they run. See how they run.
They all ran after the Badger’s wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife,
Did you ever see such a sight in your life,
As three blind moose?

Heh heh. Funnily, I just bought a new knife. Bit of a knife fetish, me.
When Uncle B and I get hit by bus, we are SO going to be blamed for each other’s junk. My knives, his flowers.

It took me a whole day to figure that out even after you tipped it.
I need more sleep.

Oh. I get it (thanks in large part to a generous clue donation from the S. Weasel Foundation; without it, I’d have gone to my grave thinking the Weez had finally slipped her last cog).

Oh, nothing special. Just something I saw in a hardware store and liked. I still haven’t replaced the Laguiole some jerk stole while I was showing my house.
A butterfly knife? Wicked.

I picked up a stainless-steel “Chateau laguiole” bottle opener-corkscrew with case for 20 euros when KtLW and I were in Normandy in 2005 and now they want 125 just for the utensil.
Wottinhell — is stainless the new sterling?

Took me a while to get it, mostly because I don’t pronounce “idea” with an “r”.
