    Well......

    Just bought squid last night and it was imported from Chile.

    @8 No, not anymore. Mot of the beavers are bald nowadays in the US.

    I think conquerer is collecting beaver hair from the retirement village close to his house.
    He plans on knitting you a scarf for winter as we are going to be out of gas here in Argentina. Such a nice guy!
