Red Mr. Peanut Bank A wonderful meal was enjoyed by the humans at our table, and then. . .
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love. . . we met The Hedgehog!
Gallito Mescalito ¿Shriek? ¡¡Shriek!!
Red Mr. Peanut Bank Well, we don't know her name. Padre wanted to name her Spiny Norman, but he wants to call EVERY hedgehog Spiny Norman.
Gallito Mescalito¡¡Shrieky-shriek!!
Nameless, at the moment, hedgehog What? I don't understand you.
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love Right again, Gallito; we should ask the hedgehog what her name is. What is your name, sweet hedgehog?
Nameless until this moment, hedgehog My name is. . . Ima!
Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love Ima Hedgehog? HA! Great name!
Ima Hedgehog What's your name, big red thing?
Red Mr. Peanut Bank Well, I'm Red Mr. Peanut Bank, of course, and this is Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love, and that's. . .

Red Mr. Peanut Bank And we're all happy to meet you and welcome you to our Friday Night Gang.

Everyone in one voice Kirstin! Look how happy she is!

voice off-camera Hey, Kirstin! Who are your strange little friends?
Kirstin It's the Boyz and the Hippo!

Kirstin Why don't you go eat some pie? There's some really good apple pie over there.
Kirstin Sheesh! Some people! So, it's nice to meet you all, but Follies is about to start. Maybe you guys should get back in Padre's bag.

Susan S! Kirstin! Hedgehog!
Shriek!!!
What a fun trip, I wish I were a toy animal going along for the fun!!
But WAIT!
There´s been a intrusion (some might say mistake)...the Ima Hedgehog non-person, yet, soon to be performer in the famous Friday Night Gallito Mescalito ¡Shriek and Mr. Red Peanut Bank ensemble, is a stand-in! Yes, it´s true! I´m the famous Ima Hedgehog, Star of Blogs, Blobs and Bittles! Furthermore, I´m suing Sue for being so nice to you (under pretence of knowing the original, one of a kind, always lovely, beautifully spiked and gifted...me!).
You will be hearing from my solicitors (who are conveniently located of Telegraph Avenue in the old location of The White Horse Bar).
You´ll see, Ima Hedgehog is REALLY ME!
I await your submission (or a commission),
Valeria Ima Hedgehog-Spreckles
P.S. It was very kind of Leonardo Ricardo to bring this to my attention as I´m a weekend, in the country, houseguest who was taken aback!
VIH-S
I´m going to my room now.
You may want to sue me Ima Hedgehog-Spreckles, but Padre Mickey has changed the name he was given. This hedgehog is named
"I Da Hedgehog" not 'Im A Hedgehog.' It was noisy at The Holy Land, so I guess he mis-heard me! So sue him, OK?
My question is for Red Mr. Peanut Bank and Gallito Mescalito: Do you folks ever have difficulties getting through U.S. Customs? I am assuming that you aren't on a terrorist watch list, but your appearance is somewhat differen't from most air travelers and those immigration and security people can be so tough. Anyhow, enjoy your trip!
I believe that they travel in a sock...
Love these! And I really enjoyed meeting the humans, too. :-)
