But, did he get the mouse?

Firefox has crashed.

Restart?

What beautiful photographs, and the animation is amazing. Mr. Fox looks healthy enough, so I’m glad the “tim’rous beastie” got away!

Ah, but it didn’t!

After watching the video at your link, Scott, it led me to this one:

I mostly lurk here, but this is the sort of thing that brings me back to sweasel time and again. 🙂

For some more unconventional photography http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/50-unexplainable-black-white-photos

Aw, shucks, Tawny — thanks for that. I’ve been fighting off a lurgie for a month and feel whipped. I thought I’d been pretty weak lately.

Lung infection, I think. Yes, yes…I finally broke down and made an appointment with the witchdoctor for Monday.

Scubafreak! In your video all three animals, sadly, were killed. At least in mine one of them had a happy ending. 🙂

Heh! Tawny, those are BIZARRE photos!

But I saved #23 — I’m thinking it’s worthy of a demotivational poster……..

Aw crap Stoaty, you too? Pertussis (whooping cough) here. 🙁

Those life-long immunizations they gave us when we were kids, weren’t, and I’ll need a full suite of immunization boosters after I get well from this awful thing.

I hope they get you squared away, and that you get well soon.

Eh. You too.

I hear a lot of hacking around, so there’s a local lurgie. But a month ago, we went to see a friend one of whose scummy children had a respiratory bug, and I came home coughing. So I’m pretty sure that’s it. I sure thought I could get over it by myself.

A viral respiratory infection will often weaken you to the point a bacterial infection takes hold. Then you will need antibiotics.

1. Always remember that alcohol kills germs. I learned this young by reading an old novel that I ‘ve been trying to find again for many years now; no, of course I don’t remember the name or the author.
Anyhow in one part of the story the writer is on a ship in the middle of the Pacific when thypoid breaks out. He and a few other men buy up all the liquor on the ship and lock themselves in a stateroom and stay drunker than Cooter Brown till the ship finally reaches port. It worked for them and it works for me, although my attorney suggests I should no longer recommend it to others. However, just for you…

2. I really, really want a pet fox.

You know who had a pet fox? Grizzly Man. And look what happened to him.

I want a fox hat.

Funny how that works, Eh AGT? I had a pneumovax shot about 3 years ago, and I can tell you that it worked like a charm. I’ve had pneumonia every year since…. 🙁

Some Vegetable, would this be of any help?:

They claim to breed tame foxes.

Oooooh! Mike!

Do you think that Mrs. Vegetable will buy the “It followed me home from Siberia, honest!” story?

I’ll blame the crater in the bank account on crazed electric kazoo fiends.
Or banjo fiends. Either one.
🙂

Mr. Vegetable–

Blame it on that abominable product of perverted science, the kazoo-banjo chimera.

On the good news front, we have isolated over 1500 genes over 18 million base pairs of DNA, which constituents the basic essential genes used by the cells computer system for ‘higher eukaryotic life’ …

We can now synthesis the first eukaryotic organism from scratch … for a simple uni-celluar eukaryote.

Oh! Oh! I want a designer fungus for Christmas!

Mike James: They claim to breed tame foxes.

It’s for real. The project was initiated by Dmitri Belyaev in 1959, and has continued down to the present. They have gotten some very interesting results.

Their selectively bred foxes are tame – but also changed significantly in appearance, becoming IIRC more “juvenile” in appearance. This has significant implications for the psychology of “tameness” in animals.

I’ve always said that foxes seem more feline than canine.
