Look! A Bear-Raccoon-Puppeh!
July 17, 2009 by
Obviously scientists got it all wrong. When I look at the so-called “red panda” I see part raccoon and part puppeh, all sporting Clairol Nice ‘n’ Easy Auburn 108 . But Panda? No way!
Who decides these things!?
By request: TONGUE-HANCE!

| 0:35: | “Now I am dry again, but if you want me to swim, you have to promise not to do the biting and the pulling from the water, thank you nice lady!” |

I mean, just look at how it dwarfs that dog … oh, wait–that’s Scooter, a Maltese from New Zealand, who may qualify as the smallest full-grown dog of all time. According to its owner, Scooter grew to about three inches tall and said “meh, that’s plenty. So, are we having biscuits with our tea, or what?”
Cheers to sender-inners Sandra and Clairebear!

Well, hello there! So glad you could make it! Grab a plate, because we’ve got chips and guacamole, three kinds of potato salad, there’s a lovely bean casserole you’ve simply got to try, and I just set out a tray of ferrets, so do help yourself to those, and save room for three-layer Jell-O mold…

“Ugh, what utter pablum. Technically proficient, yes, but what exactly is the artist trying to say here? The whole ‘sad, soulful kitten eyes’ thing is such a cliché, darling — where’s the originality? I’m looking for something that screams ‘YES! This is real! This is art!’ and all I’m getting here is ‘mew.’ “
I guess we can just skip the “Dogs Playing Poker” retrospective, Matt M.
This Just In: Okey-Dokey Okapi!

She looks like the head-on collision of a zebra and a giraffe, but she’s 100 percent gorgeous. Meet Kalispell, an okapi born June 27 at the Denver Zoo, one of only a half-dozen okapi zoo births in North America annually for this rare species. But don’t rush to see her yet, Denverites — she’s still under wraps until she gets a bit older. For more, see the Denver Post.
