I've Got A Squirrel Loose; Or, My Heaven Is Missing A Squirrel

I'm smitten with AT&T's Valentine's Day ad -- not so much for the phones (I don't even think we get that service here, bastards), but as we all know, I'm a sucker for a puppet show. I partially married hubby for his puppet skills, and if that makes him The Puppet Master and myself the puppet, well, I can live with that.

In the commercial a red boy mouse finger puppet hits on a blue girl squirrel finger puppet:

Mouse: You know what I think?
Squirrel: What?
Mouse: Heaven must be missing a squirrel.

Ms Squirrel laughs, but you know she falls for it. Just as I have.



AT&T needs to sell me these finger puppets.

Seriously.

Are you listening, AT&T? I don't want an iPhone. Especially as I don't have service for it here. But even if I could, I'd still want those adorable finger puppets more.

I guess this whole post makes me AT&T's puppet, posting their ad like that... Unless they make me the puppets. Then I am The Puppet Master.

Go Ahead, Pull His Nut

This vintage celluloid squirrel is a tape measure dispenser -- just pull his nut and see how long he gets.
