It can be tough living with a penguin with an I.Q. of over 200 and
Fred the Penguin really means well… So just a warning to any one
coming to our house for Trick or Treat. Fred wanted to give out
treats because the urchins are very good to him, unlocking our front
gate so he can get out etc… Well, he came up to me and asked if
“Swedish Fish” were a good treat… I said of course!.. that was
until 200 cans of Oscar’s Surströmming arrived at his igloo. I said
“I thought you meant the candies?”
Fred said “Of course not! That rots children’s teeth and these
are MUCH tastier.” I hate to think what Babbage will smell like
November first. Sera and I will be handing out clothespins for your
noses with every candy treat.
As another treat for Halloween Bok Choy the giant panda who lives
with us is adapting “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” into
a Peking Opera… I am wondering how it will compare to last year’s
thanksgiving opera “Pilgrims and the Dragon Ship Eat Turkeys
with Indians.”
River makes a mental note to bypass any houses that have live penguins in attendance.
i totally want that peking opera soundtrack
mine are mechanicle, so you might be safe….if it weren’t for the zombies that escaped, but they’re mostly harmless…
