I bribed the Dwarves with Marshmallows. They work for me now.

haha you sound funny

 

as would you if you lived here.

 

"you want anotha marshmella?" teeeheeehee

god blass you barry

 

Was that your cat eating among them?

 

That was a wild cat. She lives next door under a house. She won't let anybody within touching distance, and she can single handedly whip three coons at once. Starvation makes you brave I guess.

Oh, and I know it's a female because ever tomcat in the neighborhood was howling at her this week.

 

Don't you worry that one will bite you? I've heard of this thing they can transmit. Rubies? Reedees? Something like that. Makes you brain swell up and you can't remember things.

 

roofies

 

Yes they carry rabies, and yes I worry about being bitten. I have a .22 rifle and would just have to kill it if it bit me. They take the brain and assess it for rabies. If I couldn't shoot it, well I guess I get the shots.

The raccoons are entertaining. Worth the risk.

 

For some reason that clip reminds me of smokey and the bandit.

 

actually it reminds me of where I spent the last 2 weeks. Central City, Kentucky. Coal mines, bubbas, fishing, evinrudes, baptist churches and people who like to litter.

 

???

wow this place is still here eh?

 

Rubella? West Nile? Rabies? Lyme? Mad Cow? Kuru? Jakob-Creutzfeldt?

Let's be specific here...

BTW, if a human is bitten with an animal suspected of carrying rabies (at least in this state), the animal is beheaded, and the head is sent to the state capital for examination. Essentially, they open the skull and look at parts of the brain under UV light. If a certain fluorescence is observed, the animal was infected. Good to know, but painful to watch. They slit the throat of the animal (usually a dog), and let most of the blood drain into a sink, and then proceed to use a common wood saw to sever the head (while the animal was still suffering from the neck wound in the few cases I personally witnessed). The head is then packed in ice and left for the next courier to pick up. This concludes today's lesson from "Lomo's Real Life Experiences for the Fortunate Populous."

Be sure to tune in next week, when we examine methods to shave ferrets, disable work voicemail, and an interesting squirrel recipe for the Crock Pot...
