Yes, sir, I'm cut from a different cloth. My texture is the best fur, chinchilla.

The teacher next door stopped by with a six-pound bag of pretzels. The Democrats left them after caucusing. Thanks, lefties. I appreciate it.
The conversation quickly moved from pretzels to fuzzy animals, and you know what? I have never seen a chinchilla - not live, not in a picture, not even on a coat. In fact, my only experience with chinchillas is rapping about them in "Crazy in Love."

If you're in the same no-idea-what-a-chinchilla-looks-like-boat, here is a picture of one. You're welcome.

i have not started the book yet

i usually can't do anything without a deadline

so, if we set a book club meeting, i'll be motivated to read it

and, i too sometimes think about that ill-fated mouse

I didn't need your picture because I saw a LIVE CHINCHILLA when I was in Utah with Mancub and LongArms.

Ha!
