[...] we come though we’d like you to sort a few things out. I’ve already mentioned the national scandal of your so-called badgers, but there is something else that has been bothering [...]

Customs stops are arbitrary from what I’ve seen. I was stopped and patted down flying out of Orlando last month.

But I agree…I wouldn’t want badger smuggler on my passport either.

You are kidding. last time I came to America they made me take my shoes off before they would let me in. I must have the air of a drug dealing terrorist. The last thing I want to do is get Warning! This man is a badger smuggler stamped on my passport.

We need more research. Are these animals the same species? The same genus? Whatever the case I’m sure that the American can take the British badger. Can you catch one to bring over in March and let us know? You should be able to get by customs while they’re harrassing some dad coming from Disney World about princess sunglasses or something.

does the british badger drink tea, wear a monocle, and have a polite demeanor? because frankly, american (real) badgers are known for their tenacity, and something being both british and tenacious is simply fictitious. but i do agree, those shows aren't funny.

Speaking of testicles, it’s always bugged me that the Disney edition of the wonderful Japanese film “Pom Poko” renamed the tanuka “racoons” and excised all mention of their testicles (gigantic, inflatable and turnable into everything from balloons to carpets) and replaced it with “racoon pouches”. As in “Yes, you are standing on my racoon pouch!” as opposed to “Yes, you are standing on my testicles!” which makes so much more sense.

Well, maybe you have to watch the movie.

Anyway. Colonials! Bowdlerizers!

On the other hand, at least they’ve taken the Beckhams off our hands.

Yeah, the older I get the more it happens to me, too. Glad to know I’m not alone.

Oh, and we can’t write to our president. He admits he doesn’t read.

I have it on good authority that that particular American badger recently won the National Showbadger Award 2006. It is the finest example of badgerdom that the USA has to offer.

How long did it take you to find that picture of a geriatric american badger? I invite you all to head over to wikipedia and see a reasonably aged american badger.

I had hoped that as I aged I would stop sitting on my testicles. What a disappointment. I have a friend who is a workers compensation agent at a major automaker. She once paid a comp claim on a guy who say on his at work…hmm.
