Dear President Obama,
I would like a Ferrari Dino and a guinea pig.
Actually, my cats will eat the guinea pig, so that's not important.
Thank you.

They are called a Federation, but it seems to a bit more like some sort of Communist inspired dictatorship.
Being on the guinea dole is pretty Socialist.
Socialism is a warm...guinea pig
Isn't that a line from a beatles song?
In other news, guinea pigs are adorable little land-mammals...

In Soviet Russia Guinea Pigs eat You!
I've heard they're good with fries.
"Look world, Russia is so strong we provide little girls with cute furry animals."
Is no problem. Give to gurl lab rat. Have KGB quarantine and observe results.
If you judge a country by how they treat their citizens, then Russia must be a very small, warm, fuzzy place.
