The Trouble With Armadillos
Posted by Harvey at 10:36 AM | View blog reactions | Comments (10)

(A Filthy Lie)

Recently at Instapundit, Glenn Reynolds opined:

Personally, I've always blamed the armadillo. Nasty creatures, armadillos. They carry leprosy, you know.

Seems like he's over-reacting a bit, doesn't it? Like he's got some sort of personal grudge against armadillos?

I wonder if this has anything to do with... (see extended entry)

...that incident at the K-7 Space Station?

KKKHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNN!!!!!!!!


and first....

(before I get roughed up by the trekkies, yes I know Khan had nothing to do with tribbles)

Armadillos are very important, they allow rednecks to have oysters on the half-shell and Armadillos don't see well. They don't hear well, either. But they do have long, sharp claws, and they have been known to eat lawyers. The armadillo may well be the best-loved animal in the south. Another intersting historical fact: The Armadillada
In 1588, Spain set out in a bunch of boats to

And finally, Q: How many democrats does it take to eat an armadillo?
A: Three: one to eat it, and two to watch for cars.

Man! I haven't seen a humorous tribble reference for years.

And anotherspec - You'll get roughed up for saying trekkies instead of trekkers, too.

Or so I hear.

jimmyb, roughed up by a trekkie? How can you tell when they've "roughed you up?"

#4 - Posted by: Undercover Hippie on June 10, 2006 03:15 PM

The AR-15, in any of its variants, is quite adequate to this task, or for poodle or wiener dog infestations. The 5.56mm NATO poodle round being in high volume production and all.

By the way, the trackbacks don't ever seem to be working for IMAO... is that an anti-spam thing?

Undercover Hippie,
I think it's when they try to do that Vulcan nerve pinch on you and then point a replica (toy) phaser at you while yelling "it's set on kill, you're dead!!"

That has always been my favorite episode!

well, you can tell mr. instapundit that armadillos DON'T carry leprosy. it's an urban legend. leprosy was successfully grown on cells from the footpad of an armadillo. that's all.

there are no leprous 'dillers waiting by the roadside to infect armadillo chasers or anyone else, for that matter.
