My wife & I were in Crabby and Evelyn and looking at their brushes as potential Christmas present suggestions. They carry a nice selection of Jagger Badger brushes.

The girl came over picked up one of the brushes and displayed it in her best “Vanna White” hand flourish, and said “Yes, and these brushes are made without hurting the animal.”
“Really?” I said, “and how exactly is that done?
“They hold it down and shave it.” She said. I burst into raucous laughter.
“We are talking about a viscous Badger? Pound for pound, one of the fiercest animals in the world.” I said

“Then how do you, think they do it?” She said
“They kill it and skin it. In China, where this knot probably came from they are considered a pest.” I said.
“Oh my god”, she said, as he tossed the brush back on the shelf as if it were hot.

My wife socked me in the shoulder and said “It’s time for us to go your, work here is done.”

Ah, to be young and so …

This made me smile. I think I saluted the badger farmer earlier for his efforts. I can only imagine what he looks like at dinner time after a hard day shaving badgers
