Jan 3, 2009: Aardvark

xoxoxoBruce • Jan 3, 2009 12:31 am
I got screwed up with the holidays and failed to realize yesterday was Friday.
Of course on Friday the faithful expect a warm & fuzzy critter image.
Where should we begin? At the beginning of course...Aardvark.

So, better late than never... right? :blush:

Oh boy! For once, I get to make the first joke about eating the Friday IOTD subject!

Uh, er, that's why I didn't post it yesterday. I wanted you to have a shot at it. Yeah, that's it, I did it for you, I swear. ;)

The gay doctor at the nuthouse once made a remark about anteaters.

I don't think he meant one of these guys.

That was my immediate and exact thought.

But it's not knitted

Do we skin it or shave it to barbeque?
monster • Jan 3, 2009 3:07 pm
coat it in wet clay -as it cooks the clay will bake and when you crack it off, the hairs will stay stuck to the clay.

Poor dear looks like a cross between a piglet and a naked mole rat.
SquidGirl • Jan 4, 2009 10:13 am
I want an Aardvark! I would love to see it wander around in it's awkward nakedness. I admit though, it makes me want to double 'a' everything.....aardvark....aawkward....aaround....aadmit... :D

I think you can just shave it and barbeque it. If you skin it you would remove the crispy part of the barbeque. Those of you who like delicacies such as ears and tongue would be in your glory!!!

Aak!

Chupa-what? A chupathingy? I think it looks more like a walrus.

-Red vs. Blue reference above.
xoxoxoBruce • Jan 6, 2009 10:57 am
Nah, walrus is way down the alphabet. :haha:

That's the aardvark from The Pink Panther Show. Or am I showing my age?
xoxoxoBruce • Jan 6, 2009 11:06 am
Don't think so, this Aardvark is only a few weeks old.;)

If it's any consolation, I immediately recognized Ant and Aardvark, and had some very nostalgic moments.

Actually, this may not be of any consolation to you because of how old I am about to be ...
xoxoxoBruce • Jan 6, 2009 11:58 am
But how old you're about to be is only a day older than you are today. Hardly worrying about.:p
wolf • Jan 6, 2009 2:45 pm
Exactly.

Those were great cartoons. Who did the Aardvarks' voice? Hold on a sec (googlegooglegoogle). It says John Byner. I was thinking it was someone more famous than that. I can almost hear the voice.

And who doesn't love Mancini's The Pink Panther? Who doesn't love Mancini?
