Moose and Squirrel It was teatime on the ramparts when Moose and Squirrel sneaked down, weaving through the heathen mass like snakes upon the ground; skulking in the shadows, nicking grub and kit, making it away and free before the watchfires lit. When dawn came up all shiny, Fearless Leader bawled. No one left to shoot inside, just one naughty message scrawled across the inner courtyard, etched in desert sand; in a shaky squirrel script: Natasha was born a man. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

Thanks Lady. Robert, it's Rocky the flying Squirrel and Bullwinkle J. Moose, Boris and Natasha, and Fearless Leader. Cartoons from back 50 years ago when I was a kid. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

Oh, I used to love those people -- and people they were to me. Heck, they still are, I freely admit it! Sometimes when life is a Fractured Fairy Tale, you've just gotta have a dose of moose and squirrel to set things right. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Not only gave me a chuckle but brought back many memories from what seems 3 lifetimes ago. Very much enjoyed and I have to agree with Rocky on the Natasha thing. |
