What the hell are you looking at?
Never seen a raccoon before?
And what’s with the fence?
A “NO TRESPASSING” sign would have sufficed.
Whatever happened to “Mi casa es su casa”?
You wanna play a little game of “Climb This Fence”?
OK, you’re on! I can climb this fence before you can say:
“Rocky Raccoon runs rings around reclining redheads”.
Psst! Turn around, Carrot Top! I’m on the other side. Haha!
Look, in my defense, I got a wife and six kids waiting for me
back at the dumpster and we gotta eat.
A baby’s full dirty diaper feeds a family of eight quite nicely.
Hey, don’t look at me like that!
One man’s poop is another’s Pâté de Poulet.
Next time, leave some tabasco sauce; my wife likes it hot!
Ha-cha-cha-cha!

They’re such cute bandits. One night, I saw one climbing the fence. They don’t have any problems trespassing.

This is very true! They totally ignore the “no trespassing” signs! I like the way you called them ‘bandits’; they certainly are, with their built-in eye masks!

Ugh! “A baby’s full dirty diaper feeds a family of eight quite nicely.” The raccoons in my neighborhood are certainly more discriminating.

As are mine but I can’t speak for the young couples with babies who live just a few houses down! I’m glad my diaper changing days are over.

Norwegian Wood and Rocky Racoon are my two favourite Beatles songs. Fab little story there, Nancy

You picked a couple of great songs, Misk, but they’re Beatles songs; can you really ever go wrong?

There are three I don’t care for – Yellow Sub, Maxwell’s Silver Hammer and #9 which isn’t even a song.

I love the tune in Maxwell’s Silver Hammer, but the lyrics are rather gruesome, and I never understood what #9 was about.

I never thought about that before, but I guess a racoon would probably eat poop. Funny story, Nancy. Her name was Magill and she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy.

Yep. They’re not the discriminating sort! Like all animals, they eat anything with a smell, good or bad.
Fun song, right? Thanks for the nod; I wasn’t even thinking of the mention of Nancy when I posted it but it’s the perfect song for this little story.
Thanks, Jim!

EW! It’s true! For some bizarre reason that is their meal of choice. My husband will vouch for that, having cleaned up turned-over garbage cans after the raccoons rooted out the baby’s diapers. I guess beggars can’t be choosers! Thanks, Sadje!
