Twitchin' Tommy's Last Stand

12 years 10 months ago #109115 by Shadowfixer1
Image made of Thomas G. Squirrel a.k.a. "Twitchin' Tommy", the lead instigator of the 2011 Hickory Nut Rebellion. His last words before his gruesome demise were "Give me a hickory nut or give me death". Rival forces led by Ted Nugent gave him his wish. The end came as he was cornered in Little Rock, Arkansas. Officials expect raids on bird feeders to decrease with this news.

And, do I dare point out that it took a lot of balls for that squirrel to stand in front of the cannon?
