Elf trafficking is one of the unspoken problems of our time.
Man caught smuggling live elves? It’s Christmas week: Must be Santa!
Oh, never mind.
eel veal.

Right up there with elf juggling.
The Presley estate could not be reached for comment...
Since they are living things worth a lot you would think some clever fellow would find a way of growing them. The law must be stupid in this regard to prevent such a profitable venture.
I thought Elvis impersonators were making a comeback and Kim Basinger was going to have to save us again.
(”Elvis has left the building” movie reference)
I had to look it up too
Well..... what did you find out?
“LOL!! Read it quickly and thought it said live elves”
Legolas is not amused.
They’re taking the contraband to Isengard!
The Quinault Tribe and probably more, make a celebratory dish that looks like Peanut Butter out of mashed, rinsed Acorns and Eels. I have a customer who showed me a jar of the stuff last week. Thankfully she didn’t offer me any…I’m not a fan of Eels, but the Acorn mash intrigued me.
She says that washing and rinsing the mash turns the Acorns sweet. Perhaps a dip or dressing for a bug roast if the WEF goons have their way.
Shut up, kid, listen to your elvers!
There are commercial eel farms in the US. Two(?) in FL, Pennsylvania, and Maine. One in Deleware. One of the FL farms is located in the Keys.
and one was at Federal Point on the St. Johns River near Hastings. I live about a mile from the location.
Unfortunately, I believe it has been converted to pot growing. For the first 20 or so years after I moved here, the facility used outdoor cement ponds, covered in the winter with greenhouse framing. A friend who was the Army Corps of Engineering office head told me they were permitted for 6 million gallons of groundwater each day. Used once, then discharged to the river. This is typcal of non-recirculating farms.

I have no idea why the business closed. Most of their markets were Europe and Asia.
“One shy of a twelver,”
Brilliant. :)
