Sophie Rules the World

The Revolution will be Blogged!
The squirrels in our park are taking over.

Being the quiet, philosophical type,

Sophie has been contemplating how best to
manage the menace.

_______



For a time, she considered the "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" option
and thought a picnic might be nice.

_______

She also considered enslaving them ....

_______




or recruiting them for bank heists.

_____

OR, given their demonstrated speed and agility,
she thought of coercing them into athletic competition
(hey, curling is now an Olympic sport)


___________

In the end, Sophie has decided to stuff them and
pose them in dioramas as an artistic statement
and educational service.
The Museum of Natural History and MOMA have not stopped calling.

We expect you will be reading about this in the next issue of
Great North American Dogs
or Salon

______________________

Here is a preview of the controversial reviews the show is expected to generate; perhaps the most controversial being that the media and the show's curators will mistake the squirrel for a gopher. Sophie will remain undeterred, quit her job as a dog philosopher, change her last name, open a factory in NY, finance a band and a couple of films ..... well, you know the rest.


"So funny I nearly peed myself"


Awful or awesome? Disturbing or delightful?


"A must see for anyone who ever wondered
what a gopher would look like if it were dressed as a preacher"
