I hear that baiting the traps with wuffies is another good way to catch tigers... *grins*

Oh, really?

Re: Oh, really?

[altivo.livejournal.com]

I think you'd better have this, just in case.

*hands Argos a platter full of tuna sandwiches and chocolate chip cookies*

[shadow-stallion.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Oh that's a great one. I love Calvin and Hobbes.

Hmmm, a trap like that would catch unicorns too. It would catch me at least. ^.^

[doco.livejournal.com]

I'm not entirely familiar with your strange American pop culture, but wasn't that the very first strip if I recall properly?

[altivo.livejournal.com]

Yep, it is. ;D

I miss Calvin and especially Hobbes.

*checks tuna supply, looks all around corners and behind himself for something*

Unfortunately, I don't think the empty tuna tin would be sufficient shield to protect me from a lion...

[shadow-stallion.livejournal.com]

*chuckles* You're probably right.

Tuna is a weak spot for me. If I go to sandwich places you can pretty much bank on me eating tuna salad. I guess there are worse things for you as long as it's not drenched in mayo. :)

[hgryphon.livejournal.com]

You can catch gryphons that way, too, but you didn't hear it from me...

[altivo.livejournal.com]

Yeah, tuna itself is pretty healthy, though like most salt water fish it can push your sodium level so don't eat those salty fries or chips they serve with it. ;p Do, however, eat the lettuce and tomato they provide.

*debates whether the tuna might trap the lion too so he'd have both of you in his power... bwa ha ha!*

[schnee.livejournal.com]

Hear, hear. On one hand, it's good that Bill stopped before the comic jumped the shark - and it's certainly better than the alternative of having it do that, too -, but still, wouldn't it have been great if he had been able to carry on without doing so?

[altivo.livejournal.com]

Hmm. In that case, I'd better use steel cable instead of mere rope. This clothesline will never stand up to a gryphon's beak...

Wait a minute, that's the second interest in fish you've expressed this week. I didn't realize that gryphons were shore dwellers.

[shadow-stallion.livejournal.com]

You actually hit on something that the lion and I were discussing last night or the night before when the news was discussing how much sodium some restaurants use.

When I had my blood work done some months ago most of the numbers came back on the extremely low side of 'normal'. With that in mind and the fact that we hardly use salt at all we really don't watch what our salt intake is from other sources.

*snickers* Hmmm, fish and feline...I bet it would trap a lion too. :P

[hgryphon.livejournal.com]

I'm a coastal range gryphon!

Re: Oh, really?

[argos (from livejournal.com)]

*looks worried*

Do you think it would help if I rubbed the tuna onto my fur?

[hellmutt.livejournal.com]

Don't tell anyone, but large grey dogs can be lured with fresh peanut butter and blueberries.

Re: Oh, really?

[altivo.livejournal.com]

No, don't spoil your natural sweetness that way. I think tigers have a sweet tooth too.

Re: Oh, really?

[argos (from livejournal.com)]

*relaxes as much as he can with a platter full of sandwiches and cookies balanced on his tummy*

Oh, OK.

[altivo.livejournal.com]

But blueberries won't be in season until July.

*makes notes and waits patiently*

Re: Oh, really?

[baphnedia.livejournal.com]

Aww so cuuuute! *dies*
Also, xposting the pic to my canis forum :P

[flamekist.livejournal.com]

I'm thinking that trap just might catch a biker as well, provided it's baited properly with sourdough bread and romaine lettuce.

[altivo.livejournal.com]

Absolutely. I like a pickle and a slice of tomato as well, but sourdough is top notch. The tuna is good but not essential in my case. A slice of good cheese is adequate if there are lettuce and tomato.

Re: Oh, really?

[argos (from livejournal.com)]

It is a cute pupcake isn't it? I stole it from a cookbook: Hello, Cupcake! by Karen Tack. She's brilliant at playing with her food. ;D

Re: Oh, really?

[argos (from livejournal.com)]

Canis forum? Where is that?

[equusmaximus.livejournal.com]

Another option to catch a Unicorn is to serve the tuna-salad on half of a toasted sourdough English Muffin, sprinkled with shredded cheddar and then broiled until the cheddar is all melty and gooey... :) Virgin serving-girl optional... ;)

[farhoug.livejournal.com]

I've heard it's one of those reverse psychology thingies, a rumor spread by tigers to catch more wuffies. *winks*

Re: Oh, really?

[farhoug.livejournal.com]

Now, that's cute. ^^

Re: Oh, really?

[argos (from livejournal.com)]

*wags*

Yeah, it's intended to be irresistibly sweet. ;p

[altivo.livejournal.com]

*checks the scullery*

Uh-oh. We're completely out of virgin serving girls. I guess the tuna melt will have to stand on its own merit...

[songcoyote.livejournal.com]

Works for Coyotes, too.

Whole wheat bread is ideal :)

Light and laughter,

[altivo.livejournal.com]

No wonder the price of tuna has gone so high and the environmentalists say they are being overfished. Everyone wants to eat the poor things. ;p

[songcoyote.livejournal.com]

Aye, that is the conundrum.

They should just make some carefully crafted tuna-flavored chicken and put that in the tuna cans. It would probably be cheaper, and chickens aren't going extinct at the moment :P

Light and laughter,
SongCoyote

[altivo.livejournal.com]

Well, we know the tiger caught at least one, don't we?

[altivo.livejournal.com]

If our resident fox has anything to say about it, chickens will be extirpated from the face of the earth (and she will become immensely fat in the process.)

In spite of this, I find myself greatly entertained when I discover a newly murdered chicken corpse in the woodlot, where she seems to drag them for later consumption. We do not interfere with her plans. Now if they were MY chickens, I might feel differently. But since they belong to the irresponsible neighbors, c'est la vie.

[songcoyote.livejournal.com]

Oui, c'est la vie, et ainsi c'est le renard.

As my beloved Evil Mo says, chickens are just fast-moving plants and should be eaten anyway.

Light and laughter,
SongCoyote

[altivo.livejournal.com]

Mo is brilliant. She should publish a book of pithy advice. :D

[songcoyote.livejournal.com]

Heh... I agree, and I'll help. Maybe we can call it "Sage Advice from Coyote and Squirrel"

"Growing Up Evil"? "Mad Scribbles from the Garden"? "Squirrel Soup for the Soul"? Eh, something, snyway. A better (and pithy) title would no doubt make itself known once we actually started on it ;)

Light and laughter,
SongCoyote

Ooo Tuna sandwiches *sits on your stomach and quietly eats the tuna sandwich* Hmmm *notices you lying seductively on the pillows* What's your deal then?

*noms on the sandwich*

Re: Oh, really?

[argos (from livejournal.com)]

*grabs you*

Oh wait! You're not a tiger. Well, I guess if he hasn't showed up yet I should give it up. Go ahead and eat the bait.

*headpaws dejectedly*

Re: Oh, really?

[cabcat.livejournal.com]

Awww *waves over a tiger friend* There's a doggy who likes stripeycats. ;)

Re: Oh, really?

[argos (from livejournal.com)]

LOL! Actually, I like lions, but I was fishing for one particular stripey cat here. Evidently he was busy somewhere else or just not amused.
