They are quite cute... I hope their not near the coast line that just got flooded with that Oil Leak...
I was horrified when I heard about that and saw the video clips... Just a huge mess, all that wildlife at risk now...

Anyway, the Meerkats are adorable... I wonder what it would cost to have a pair shipped here... I doubt they are available at the local pet stores...

Unless the person got got too.

I don't suppose you're referring to this incident: http://tinyurl.com/396grl

Okay that was a pretty funny interview, but the situation is still horrible...

I'm sure it is, Baft. It's just that when I hear "Australia" and "oil spill", my mind immediately goes to that sketch. No unseemly or inappropriate levity was intended.

I love the last part of that skit (not in that video on YouTube):

"Times' up? Can you call me a cab?"
"I thought you came in a Commonwealth car?"
"I did"
"So what happened"
"Well the front fell off"

-Cub. =o)

It's at the end of this version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWPwlMv8lNI

Most versions on YouTube don't have it, probably because they're copying one source. It's the obviously comedic closing that makes it abundantly clear that it's just a comedy sketch, but some folks on YouTube have tried to pass it off as a real news segment, so I guess that's why it's so often left off.

Oh I could tell it wasn't a real newscast interview... People really buying that it was real??? Just goes to show, some people will believe anything...
