Cars, Raccoons, Brick Walls, Squirrels

I was going through some of the local news today when I came across
this story about a woman who rolled her car trying to avoid a raccoon.
Fortunately, the woman and the child who was with her were uninjured.

Which sort of reminds me of that near-serious squirrel incident that
happened a while back.

In a related story, another woman hit the proverbial brick wall by
driving her mini-van into -- you got it -- a brick wall. The woman
sustained head injuries and was taken to the hospital. There was no
report as to how the wall itself was doing.

What a cute raccoon face!

BTW, did you know that raccoons and ferrets absolutely love long hair? They're like cats when it comes to long hair. They can't leave it alone.

No, didn't know that! Interesting.

Sasha was attacking my sister Tass' hair when she was here, when she had it pulled back in a ponytail. I think she thought it was a squirrel!

I've had puppies pull on my hair, too. It's lots of fun!

Man, I miss having dogs around. Scratch Sasha's belly for me, will ya'?

Absolutely. She will probaby be getting a good "nipple scratching" later on tonight. And that's not a euphemism.

"There was no report as to how the wall itself was doing."

Also, how a car itself was doing. Probably the worse that the two of them

True. They don't make 'em like they used to. If it was a '53 Ford, it would probably knock the wall over and keep on going.

Adorable pic of the Raccoon. After watching the Bridgstone Tire commercial I also watched 'Drunk Squirrel' that had been eating someone's fermented pumpkins, then 'Drunk Compilation'. Have never been that drunk where I'd be falling down. I've danced through sprinklers though.
