Seasquirrel

A quick sketch.

Seasquirrels!! Yes, everyone loves to see these charming critters gambolling about under the waves and chasing peanuts tossed by delighted children! But I guess things aren't all carefree frolicks for our strange little friends: There are the Aquabillies, who view these nature's clowns only as Neptune's Varmints and "good eatin' ", often they'll squirm out of their briny shacks, armed with their Civil War era weapons (no doubt retrieved from the CSS Tuscaloosa) to take pot-shots at these adorable denizens of the deep.

Interesting, these days, running 26 miles in a marathon earns one the admiration of others, yet, if one chooses to walk 20 blocks instead of ride a bus, ones sanity is questioned...

In the old days, while talking on the phone, if you wanted (or needed) to give the impression that you hadn't shaved and had stubble on your face, you had to resort to using some sort of equipment specifically designed for that purpose (or in emergencies, a lint brush or fine sandpaper); I'm sure these days, one can spend 99 cents and purchase some sort of "ap" for your mobile communication device
