So it was a time of change on the ranch this week, one team entered [Let the Sunshine in!] and one team [brown] was completely eliminated. Here at Smallest Winner, it was business as usual, and business is good for the bunnies, apparently! Seamonkey, you are the Smallest Winner this week with a scant 16 pts! Congratulations! This makes it 3 in a row for you Sea! You are slipping a bit, you only got 4 bullseyes. Bob is in chase with 18 points, but has taken over another important title.., Bob, it is my duty to inform you that you are the overall Smallest Winner so far, wresting that title from the dear Beachcomber by a mere 5 pts at 170 to 175. Congratulations! If that weren't enough, your team, the white rabbit black team, is in a commanding overall lead of 1473 to 1678, and have won this week's photo finish 129 to 220. For Sea, I give you this cute foto, now I know it's no monkey, but it is a bunny, and it is staring at the sea. You have done so well in this game and for your team, I hereby christen you 'Seabunny' for the rest of your term here at Smallest Winner!:
Now, the Team photo, this is another attempt at bridging the bunny-to-non-bunny gap, maybe asking for a little mercy, the birdy in the pic refused to be photographed due to contract negotiations, but I think the dog/cat/hamster fill ins make the point:
Here's the number run down for the week:

Ut oh.. wasn't it a Seabunny (or a Lakebunny) that attacked Jimmy Carter that time? http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/972968/posts
quote: FLASHBACK:Jimmy Carter Attacked by Killer Rabbit (April 20, 1979 Unknown | Unknown Posted on Friday, August 29, 2003 2:03:45 PM by NC Conservative Today in Odd History, President Jimmy Carter was attacked by a rabbit during a fishing trip in Plains, Georgia. The rabbit, which may have been fleeing a predator, swam toward his boat, "hissing menacingly, its teeth flashing and nostrils flared." President Carter was forced to swat at the vicious beast with a canoe paddle, which apparently scared it off. Upon his return to the White House, Carter told his staff about the furry amphibian's assault. Most of them refused to believe him, insisting that rabbits can't swim (although since most mammals can swim, there's no reason to believe that rabbits cannot), and that even if they could, they certainly wouldn't attack humans, and certainly not presidents. Fortunately, a White House photographer had been on the scene, and had recorded the bizarre attack. The photograph showed Carter with his paddle raised, warding off a small creature which might, or might not, have been a rabbit. One staffer was quoted as saying, "You couldn't tell what it was." Undaunted by their skepticism, Carter had the image enlarged, and there it was--a killer bunny rabbit, apparently bent on assassinating the president. The story might have ended there, except that White House Press Secretary Jody Powell mentioned the incident to Associated Press reporter Brooks Jackson in August. The Washington Post ran it as front page news. The original photograph was not available (until the Reagan administration leaked it in 1981), but the paper filled the gap with a cartoon modeled on the poster for the movie Jaws, starring the rabbit and entitled Paws. Powell made a belated attempt to impress the public with the seriousness of the attack, calling the creature a "swamp rabbit," but since Carter had to appease his rabbit-loving constituents by insisting that he had not actually smacked his buck-toothed opponent with his paddle, but only splashed water at it to drive it away, it seemed unlikely that he had been in danger. The entire episode became a symbol of Carter's floundering presidency. According to Powell, "[I]t shows the extent to which an insignificant incident can snowball and end up in newspapers and news shows across the country.β Carter biographer Douglas Brinkley says, βIt just played up the Carter flake factor.... I mean, he had to deal with Russia and the Ayatollah and here he was supposedly fighting off a rabbit.β Note: While some presidential apologists have suggested that Carter might actually have been attacked by a nutria, a large, aggressive aquatic rodent, others have insisted that the President's assailant was a simple, if unusually vicious, bunny rabbit. Fulk, the 12th century king of Jerusalem, was killed by a rabbit. (Well, really he was killed by a fall from his horse, but the horse had been startled by a rabbit.) And many years ago, I was the owner of a Blue Dutch rabbit named Sequin. One of my friends still bears the scars of an encounter with Sequin--a perfectly matched set of parallel teeth marks, where Sequin's fangs closed on her hand and ripped through the flesh when she pulled her hand away. Bunnies are, indeed, fiercer than anyone but Monty Python has generally given them credit for.
(note rabbit beating a fast retreat to the right, after being thrashed...)

Sea, I had no idea the implications of my Seabunny moniker!! Apologies for any insinuation, but to tell you the truth, I have seen some anti-bunny sentiments out there on the internet as I was surfing for cute bunny pics for this competition. Mind you I detest such negativity, why take for instance this demotivational poster, which hints at the 'nutria' simmering within these furry and innocent-looking creatures...
It is truly an odd, strange world out there.

LOL! Bunnies can be less than cuddly as they age and we know that cats stole the technique of "rabbitt kicking" from rabbits. Ever seen the old movie "Night of the Leapus".. what a hoot that was.. so bad it was funny.
