Oh. Em. Gee……that last pic just about kills me! As does the pup doing a great impression of Mr. Burns
Photo number 3 looks like he’s saying his prayers :
Now I lay me down to sleep
A bag of cawfish at my feet
If I die before I wake
Give them to my brother Jake.
(with my appologies to M. Cosby)
I only wish this guy had been on the ballot last November.
So true!
He gets my nom-imation. And a majority of stoats.
Yay! Thanks for posting this! The otters get my vote every. single. time.
The hovertext for pic three is perfection!
i thought that crab claw was a glass bowl
I can longer see pictures of otters without thinking of Benedict Cumberbatch. So, a double win.
