How about a Brazilian porcupine advertising a Christmas ornament that looks like him?

Sadly not!
To be fair, the layout isn’t really designed for our four-legged friends.
But it’s in SF and there are lots of cool spots to take Dasher before dinner. ☺️

It’s mind boggling bc there are so many amazing voice actors working today!!! Yes, you have to pay them, but they are the soul of the story in audio form.

If any of you love a good memoir, I highly recommend listening to Gabriel’s.
I listened to it months ago and the impact has lingered.

Afraid so! The story I heard is that she was struggling to get a break when someone suggested she dye her hair red to help her stand out.

She’s ridiculously underrated in my opinion. I’ve never seen her give a bad performance.
And yes, that voice is perfection.

Wow. I can’t imagine.
My hairdresser is a natural ginger and told me all kinds of fun facts about redheads (including which celebs are imposters).

Agreed!
I’m usually reading a memoir, a new fiction title, and a mystery at the same time.

That’s a very eclectic list!
I’m embarrassed to admit that I’ve never read EAST OF EDEN.

Can you see where they’re entering? If so, try caulk.
Liquid bait works well but take several days to work.
I’ve also had people swear by cayenne pepper. One woman told me that she sprinkles it outside, around the perimeter of her home and hasn’t seen an ant in 10yrs.

I’ve never seen either, but one of the smokiest scenes I can remember is in DOMINO. It’s amazing Keira Knightley and Lucy Liu survived.

She’s phenomenally talented. I think she could pull off any role and definitely that one.
