I have heard the term "the 'skiing squirrel' feature" used to describe the human interest feature that is the last news story of the evening news program format. The phrase seems to have derived from reports of the subject of this article. I'll go looking for references. - Michael J Swassing (talk) 22:36, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

America's Got Talent

I just saw Lou Ann Best and Twiggy on the TV show America's Got Talent. The judges did not advance them to the next round. Dtaylor05 (talk) 00:41, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Animal welfare?

It would be nice to have some information on whether all the 'act' is done willingly by the squirrel. I was horrified when I saw the Brad Paisley video, but seeing further Twiggy videos on youtube, it seems like the situation is definately less bad?
