I Puked, Discovered Skunks

The gastrointestinal bug finally completed its journey thru my family and bit me hard. Spent all yesterday in bed. Been much happier on the couch today feeling like I’ve been hit by a truck. After a couple hours of Tom and Jerry, my oldest pukester requested programming that was “animal” related. The only thing I could find was a PBS Nature show titled Is That Skunk? It was both entertaining and informative. And I know have a better understanding of a skunks stanky stankifying equipment. They have two nipples they stick out of their puckers. Once stuck out, they can aim the things, like the little air vents over an airplane seat. They can also control the flow of the bright yellow emission which means if they have a definitive target, the send a hard stream to the face, or in a “HOLY SHIT, GET ME OUT OF HERE” scenario, they can pinch out a fine spray and fill the air with mist. I’m quite certain spurting nipples protruding from an animals asshole was not video footage I needed to see close up in HD. But if you feel the need, feel free:
