During the last blog, we asked you to submit questions based on our Summer of 2025 Tour.
Let’s answer some questions!
“Is Uncle Jay’s Superpower a genetic trait that can be passed down through generations? Asking for a friend.” – Parker A
Parker, yes, it is a genetic condition. However, remember to use it only for good and not for evil.
“What is the most beautiful place you visited on your Summer of 2025 Tour? – Jill
Hi Jill, you’ve asked a sweet, yet difficult, question. You didn’t ask what was most surprising, most smelly, most disgusting, etc.
You simply wanted to know what was most beautiful. We talked it over and ran through all of the places we visited and had to agree, the most beautiful was Niagara Falls. It was breathtaking.
“The humans in my household have put caps on my claws. My question is for Frankie: how do I remove the caps without damaging my extremely sharp nails?” – Riley Cates
Speaking from experience, capped claws are humiliating. Especially, if they have silver glitter on them.
I’m sorry to inform you, Riley, there is no way to get the caps off until your claws grow and the caps fall off.
Be patient. And then make your displeasure known by shredding your humans’ most beloved piece of furniture. – Frankie
“Can you ship one of those psychedelic Toads to Fargo? I’m always looking for something new to experience.” – Kerry R.
Hey JK, we assume you want a live toad, right? If you pay the postage and handling, and assume all legal liabilities, sure.
“The Jets… will they ever be respected?” – Rick
Dear Rick, the short answer is no. Thank you for your question.
“I have several racoon skins from a job I did a few years ago. I understand racoon hats are selling for $150 a piece. Can you recommend a seamstress to sew the hats?” – Jim B.
Dear Jim, just use Krazy Glue or duct tape. Both are cheaper and will look even more refined than a professional sewing job.
“Should I wear this suit in the future wedding for one of my sons?” – Dave C.
Dear Dave, the answer is absolutely yes.
Butt, why wear it to just one son’s wedding?
Wear it to both sons’ weddings.
Wear it to work, your students will love it.
Wear it to Walmart, you could be offered a job as a greeter.
Wear it to bed, you could get lucky. It’s a magnificent suit!
“This is not a question. It is a request. Send Tinkerbell to St. Petersburg at once. We will host her in an honorable fashion. We will re-name her Catherine the Great II. I will take her to my lake retreat. She will enjoy the cooler weather and the strong Russian vodka.” – Vladimir P.
Dearest Vlad, perhaps we will just take the name (no more pesky copyright issues with Disney) and the vodka. Thanks.
“Is it okay to have vibrating toys, I mean dog toys, in our home even if we don’t have dogs?” – John
Dear John, absolutely. Yes. As long as your cats agree of course.
“What was your favorite part of your trip??” – Hannah from Richmond
Hi Hannah! The suck-up answer would be seeing you, of course! Butt, since you’re a world traveler, we know you want something a little more substantial in terms of an answer.
The favorite part of our trip was exploring new places (Oh, Canada!). Butt, we also enjoyed seeing people we love so we’ll break the rules and have two favorite parts to our trip, okay?
“If Wegmans bought a football team, would Jay serve as Head Cheerleader? He would need to let go of his cell phone and use pom poms of course.” – Chris from Charlottesville, VA
Hi Chris from Charlottesville, the answer is yes butt only if Wegmans puts a store in Oro Valley, AZ.
“I lust after Lady Sophia. I sat in her luscious leather seats. I drove her to heights of ecstasy (and to the bagel shop), I stroked her engine. She purred in rich contentment. I can’t get her out of my mind. Please allow me conjugal visits.” – Gino Z.
Dear Gino, if your wife provides us with meals of her homemade spaghetti and meatballs, we may consider your request.
“It’s my dream to have my very own Tinkerbell. Before I take my first road trip with my staff of 26 attendants, I’d like to know some lessons learned from your four-month tour this past summer. I don’t like to make mistakes.” – Tommy B.
Dear Tommy, we did learn a lot from our extended road trip this summer. We can boil it down to two points:
- At a certain age in life, it’s best not to bounce from place to place for months at a time. Pick a place. And stay there. Or pick two places. Just don’t pick places 10,300 miles apart.
- If you’re visiting friends, go visit friends. Take a week. Take two weeks. Take three weeks.
Since you’ll have your house with you, you don’t have to spend every day with your friends. Give them a break for a day or two. Take the pressure off. Enjoy just living near them and having the flexibility for an impromptu get together.
That’s the beauty of having an RV. It’s not like you have plane tickets and need to squeeze in a packed visit before your flight departs. With an RV, you get to be the pilot, and you own the plane.
“I met your mom (even though I didn’t know she was on board) on our crab trip. I was wondering where she is now.” – Willie from Cooperville
Dear Willie, thank you for asking. Mom is sitting in her urn in my office, looking out the window enjoying the magnificent Tucson sunsets.
“No question. Mix your mom with a bit of blow and party. It’s a great way to send off someone you love, share them with your blokes and almost go to heaven with them.” – Keith R.
Uh… wait. What?
“Your mum is here with me. We’re enjoying our straight ups.
She said a hard ‘no’ to the snorting. You’ll just sneeze.
She wants you to use the ashes to plant a prickly cactus. She likes those jumping cholla teddy bear ones. They look so cuddly.
Butt, like your mum, they’re deceptively dangerous.
Without warning, they’ll throw razor-sharp, spiked thorns at anyone who comes within a foot of them.
Literally, a bloody good idea! Your mum’s a cool bandmate.” – Ozzy O.
And that wraps up our Summer of 2025 Tour blog!
Where and when is the next Tinkerbell – or Catherine the Great II – trip? We don’t know. We have no plans. Butt, you’ll know as soon as we take off!
