Iβm going with a moderately ambitious raccoon.
First of all, raccoons already have the vibe of someone who thinks they belong in a bookshop. Little masked intellectual. Probably standing in Philosophy pretending to understand Nietzsche.
Starting position: upstairs. Tactical high ground.
McGowan: You're saying 46 Americans died, so we should attack this country. Here at home, 68,000 Americans die a year because they don't have health insurance. So, if we're going to spend billions of dollars on somethingβ¦

The Bronx Zoo is currently caring for a stowaway red fox that was discovered in February aboard a ship arriving at the Port of New York and New Jersey from Southampton, England. (1/5)
Same, but it means the bow and the string go where they would for a string bass, so.
I lived in corn/beans country. We went from a red tailed hawk being a rarity and a rather scruffy animal, to lots of healthy ones, to sightings of bald and golden eagles. It was amazing.
Hmm. I have such a shed.
I'd love to hear a Democrat or two breathe fire on what Vought's "clawing back" of investment in alternative energy is costing us now.
Or who remembers that 75% of voters think we really ought to be doing something about climate change, acidifying oceans, and CO2 emissions.

I should probably give an example.
If my history classes had been more like this, I would have been a better student.
If you can find *My Favorite Intermissions* by Victor Borge, the footnotes (and the text) are brilliant.
And you get to read about the tenor who duelled Handel and attempted to stab him in the Goosemarket.
Some might. I'd be too busy laughing my ass off.
