Everything has fleas:

"Great fleas have little fleas upon their backs to bite 'em,
And little fleas have lesser fleas, and so ad infinitum.
And the great fleas themselves, in turn, have greater fleas to go on,
While these again have greater still, and greater still, and so on."

OK I never really looked at it like that. I just kind of like hedgehogs.

In the UK the cattle grids have hedgehog ramps so they can get out if they fall in. I am guessing they have little lights showing the way like on aeroplanes too.

They are like Pandorg... they are unotterly adorable so that we won't suspect them of being evil.

True, but thse little cuties have their own specific fleas. They had to be filthy for a long time in order to evolve their own fleas. EEEK!

If I were inclined to hippiness, I'd say "Mother Earth, dude".

However, I'm not, so I guess it might just be one of those glib aphorisms that doesn't actually bear close inspection.

After having encountered the Pandorg, I can certainly believe that!

All right. Let me get this perfectly clear: We are looking for a not hedgehog. Those would be actually hedgehogs. Got it? Good.

He's also not in the German Llounge, btw...

What? The picture I posted is NOT a hedgehog. We're never going to find him if you can't tell the difference between a hedgehog and a not-hedgehog. Sheesh.
