Fortunately, a group of fairly fat and happy -- or at least safe and not starving -- foxes from the other side of the forest, will craft their own letter. And it will say, like that old Cheech and Chong routine where a Kamikazi training pilot has one question for the instructor: YOU OUTTA YOUR FUCKING MIND!Mr. Bonkersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11291165.post-50341659714663384132014-07-10T19:00:45.525-05:002014-07-10T19:00:45.525-05:00What was it that Einstein said about the definitio...What was it that Einstein said about the definition of insanity? <br /><br />I would have believed Joe's story as having really happened if he'd included that he was walking in the forest, beer in hand. <br /><br />Thanks for posting this, Joe!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12261181272646552073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11291165.post-44463482704118155592014-07-10T15:57:14.097-05:002014-07-10T15:57:14.097-05:00This comment has NOT been removed by the author.

My niece has a million books (well, not really but she's on her way to being a reader and not even 2 years old) and one of them has the lyrics of that song and, where she asks everyone to read books to her all the time, she insists I sing her that book. Try getting it out of your head after singing it over and over and over to a child who says, "Again!" every time you're done.<br /><br />I just hope that Joe's next post is fisking the fox.

Where would this world be if foxes couldn't be caught in ACME traps? Why, the world would go quite mad, with just "anyone" making a trap for other foxes, or worse, for themselves! There must be ACME traps, because otherwise, foxes wouldn't be able to handle it. They'd much rather be scampering about the woods than worrying about traps.
