Amtrak’s Best Mustelid Poll

I’m sorry to report that due to DNA analysis, skunks are now classified as mephitids and are no longer members of the mustilid family. That’s okay because honey badger is.

[Live Amtrak poll found here. More mustilid stuff here.]

BONUS: This is what a skunk sounds like.

Green Eggs And Ham, Not Bob Dylan (1997) In 1997, a 30-something music producer from Houston, Texas, produced a mashup of Bob Dylan and Dr. Seuss titled Dylan Hears a Who, a parody album that went viral online. IIRC, the estate of Dr. Seuss issued a cease and desist order based on copyright infringement, and the album / website disappeared (but not before some of us snagged it).
