Beaver shots have been neglected around here of late (we even skipped the drunk Russian beaver rampage of January, shocking to say!) but we are about to rectify that, ladies and gentlemen. We are about to make up for lost time in the only way we know how: by pandering.
So here is your shot of a smooth, cool, bad beaver, via the equally not-afraid-to-go-there NagOnTheLake:
Yes, the smooth contours of this ceramic Bad Beaver Vase by Paige Russell are evocative and moving in the extreme; why, you could even say they’re patriotic, couldn’t you? Run it up the flagpole and see what salutes.
HAH! That’s not authentic! The cuts are vertical, while any self-respecting beaver would go down in a horizontal fashion!
Oh, in Canada our beavers are much more versatile than yours, apparently.
or your artists don’t read the instructions on chisels at Canadian Tire, or Canadian Car and Foundry, or whatever they call it these days . . .
I have the advantage of having actually SEEN the damage a Canadian beaver can do.
Why, I’ve inflicted some of it myself!
Ah you’re just showing off again, just cos you can do it underwater.
Though I have heard tell you have some amazing beaver over there, all furry and everything. The nearest we have to that over here are otters which have kittens, though some wierd people call them ‘pussy’ (or should that be the other way round?) Anyway we don’t have the variety of wildlife you have roaming free. Most of our indegenous species of wildlife or either extinct or in safe captivity down the pub.
You should see Commercial Drive, where the wild tits roam free!
That’s a fine beaver shot…kinda…you know…sexy.
I want that vase.

So in the auld sod you hear people say “I’m all about the otter”?
I am all about the otter, though I have a slight preferance for Twin Otters. And yes, from observation one otter have pussy whenever possible.
One can even see twin otter on TV these days.
Ah yes, Vancouver’s most famous YouTube.
I think the beluga birth video is creeping up on it.
Not as teh cute, but massively teh awesome.
But didn’t that baby die?
Apparently Quila and little as-yet-not-given-cute-yet-respectful-of-native-traditions-name are still doing fine.
I can’t see the Beluga-Cam because my Windows is stone-agedly unupdated and won’t allow the Axis to control it or something.
Now that has to be the kinkiest webcam I’ve EVER seen. Metro, you are truly twisted.
I told you, I can’t see it.
Still, thanks.
Well, that’s even sicker. Braille beluga webcams.
