I took my kids to the zoo this weekend and upon entering the Reptile area I was blown away by a big sign that simply read SKINK.
A skink is a REAL ANIMAL! Not a stinky skank like I previously assumed. Furthermore skink do not hang out with heads of state and Paris Hilton! I know, I know. I was shocked too. These disgusting animals look like dwarf snakes with useless arms and legs. Almost like the evolutionary record player got stuck somewhere between a snake and a lizard and is repeating itself to the disgust of milenia of onlookers. Dude WTF?! :wtf: :jointsmile:

A Skink here in Scotland is a soup made from a shin of beef my Grannie was an expert at making it, you also get a Cullen Skink which is a soup made using Haddock instead of beef it is rather smelly stuff.
Just thought you'd like to know.

Wow, those things really do look like snakes mixed with a lizard. Weird. I find our world more and more fascinating (and some times disturbing and odd) every day.

I'll use this opportunity to apologize to Skink for calling him Stink this whole time. Until I read this post did I not realize it's SKINK and not STINK

I remember when I was a kid me and my friends would hunt skinks all the time. We'd just keep them as pets for a couple days and release them back where we found them. But damn, if you even started chasing one they'd drop their tail at the drop of a hat.... er, I mean tail. We need to change that expression to "at the drop of a tail" now that I think of it.



Now skink there's something else I wanted to talk to you about. I was just thinking that.... ah, god damnit he dropped his tail and ran off!
