I'm just glad it was peanuts.

Yeah, I thought maybe he was working a similar angle to Pricasso.

The nuts were OK but the back story was great.

Sometimes I volkswalk.

Squirrels migrate you know.

My Lab knows how to eat acorns...she was so skinny when i adopted her...

Well then it's settled.

I hereby commission personalized acorns for all the deer and squirrels and dogs as the case may be.

Artists shouldn't starve either.

Remember! Artists make. They make it. Science merely demonstrates.

And I want them to look just like regular nuts. No, make them all look like the luckiest nuts

alive.
