It's not a weasel. It's a marten.

You know, I'm thinking it would be fun to have a blog which tracks mentions of the pine marten in popular discourse.

It pops up every now and then. I love martens so perhaps it catches my eye more than others. They do always seem to be associated with oddball events.

I like how the story ends:

A marten is a member of the weasel family.

I read this story aloud to my husband from the paper over breakfast this morning. Some things are just too rich not to share.
