Has anyone here ever actually seen a real, live weasel?

Nope, but I've seen close relatives of weasels before. Ferrets is about as close to weasels as I've gotten.

I think I would probably enjoy the weasel game at Chuck E. Cheese. Too bad I live in the sticks.

I've seen wasels before. Not in the wild, though. They have been stomped to near extinction.

*Remembers the speech on The Competition episode of TWAS*

It would probably have been funnier if they were allowed to mention Whack A Mole, and didnt't have to use Squirrel.

You brought it up.

I'll answer it, anyway. Whack-a-Mole is a trademark name. That is why they had to change it.

Stomped to near extinction, Ryan? Was that part of the speech?

Oddly, enough I believe I did see a weasel once.

I was driving back to my motel room after a concert in Konocti years ago. It was about 11:30 at night and I saw a small something run across the road with a very distinct "weasel" body configuration. It could have been a ferret, but in checking in my wildlife books, there are some least weasels in that area, so I can never be quite sure what I saw.

Yup- they kinda look like a cross between a squirrel and a ferret. In fact, they are very close relatives to the ferret.
