Shamu I saw this the other day and thought of you and  War of the Nuts.
I hope you can use another Knight.

Bwhahhahahahaha. He needs to meet up with this fellow: http://warofthenuts.blogspot.com/2008/07/outfitting-troops.html

Karl said...

Shamu: Yes indeed, what a team they would make.

moi said...

Welcome to my leetle catapult. And armor-piercing weaponry.

Heff said...

Don't let MY squirrels find out they make that suit of armor. I'M ON A SQUIRREL WARPATH !

Big Shamu said...

So Karl, I was at work when I left my first message and when I tried to go back, our Security Wall blocked your site under the heading of Alcohol. Now I'm not sure if it's suggesting that you talk about alcohol or that we should consume alcohol while reading your site but hey. That's what lunch-time is for, visiting sites I can't see at work.

Heff GO HEFF.

Karl said...

Moi: I can see it now, hollowed out acorn's with little fuses burning as they fly from the catapult.

Heff: Don't worry it will only slow them down, just use a higher caliber.

Shamu: Funny, generally I don't say too much about alcohol except when suggesting a beverage to go with a culinary smack down meal. On the other hand, I have had people tell me. I'm easier to tolerate when their sedated. So that's probably it.

Aw, man, you weren't around for the Great Blog Squirrel Wars of Summer 2008.

It was EPIC.

Buzz Kill said...

Squirrels already make enough racket running across my roof and now they clank? Damn you photoshop!

Jenny said...

He looks very cute. I think I'll feed him so he can eat and chew more things in Heff and Shamu's yards.

Chomp chomp chomp

Karl said...

Moi: Yes, it was indeed epic. And it filled in quite a few blanks.

The horror … the horror

Buzz Kill: Like I said to Heff, it will slow them down.

Federated Union of Squirrels: I know where your sympathies lie. I've seen your drinking buddy.

LaDivaCucina said...

Hahahahaaaa! How funny! We get squirrels in Florida but they have less fluffy tails! (makes sense!)

Aunty Belle said...

Howl!

I wuz gonna post a pic of a squirrel I jes' seen--but this one dwarfs mah offerin'. Sir Acorned Squirrel.

Will admit to bein' on the side of the nuts, not the squirrels. THE DANG RODENTS EAT MAH PECANS!!!

Pam said...

!!!!!!!! Has the War of the Nuts engaged a new battle?

Karl said...

LaDiva: if I was a squirrel living in your heat, I'd go furless.

Aunty Belle: I could tell by reading the archives. Pecans should go to make pies, not feed squirrels.

Pam: At 4 to 8 kittens per litter and two litters a year. For those that have the problem, the battle never ended.

Roses said...

I've been enjoying not only the pictures, but also the comments.

Don't mind me, I'm going to make myself comfortable here.

Karl said...

Roses: Welcome! Glad to read your enjoying it it's the folks that stop by and comment that make this worth the reading.

Please do. Let see that was, a glass of red wine, a flannel robe and a pair of fuzzy slippers. Right?

Heff said...

If it was just my YARD, I wouldn't have a problem with it. Those bastards were in my ATTIC last winter !

Fortunately, I've plugged up their entryway !

Karl said...

Heff: You just need a way to keep them out of the house. Entertain them instead, perhaps one of these:

or one of these:

And because patching holes in your attic from a .410 round is no fun.

My son has this new fascination with wanting to shoot squirrels. I may have to look into the body armour for them :-)

Karl said...

JAG: I believe most of the commenter's here would prefer that you perfected his skills at "One shot One kill".

Heff said...

Thanks !

I enjoyed the Launcher the best !

Karl said...

Heff: You're welcome. One more for you.
