Afternoon all. Rain and a lack of the correct permits have brought us to a stand stile once again. When we were told this is a tough town to work in we never knew how tough. Yesterday we had to dodge cars, trucks, guys selling fake jewelry and a pair of lot lizards. Yup, this is going to be a fun place. And then there was this little bit of info that I caught today.

A proximity detector, with the trigger lead wired to the doorknob, set to run a 100 DB recording of an angry doberman.

might have Chester faxed in Shorts, the space is between the 1st/2nd floors.

or we could have my husband's attempt:

set the pizza in the oven at 450 degrees (too hot!!) and set off all 17 of our integrated heat/smoke detectors......

that better have worked cause the pizza

checking out travelling route 66....

No, no. You're basic logic and reasoning abilities are being hindered again. It's BECAUSE of your intentions that you end up in tall adventures, not despite them~!

Evening all.

Sorry Sis. But this time I have to agree with cincy and chaikwa. I mean how often do you have a good reason to use a shotgun in the house! Hmmm, might be a guy thing.

Yikes! While I was watching youtube to see how to make the tool I also saw how easy it is to open the other mechanical lock that they put on hotel doors.

Never thought of using them on Shrews. No need to dispose of the bodies if they are splattered all over the ceiling.

There is an increased presence of predatory birds in my backyard these last few weeks. A hawk has been landing in my trees and on my fence in broad daylight. Two weeks ago it hung out in the back while I was out grilling. On Tuesday when I was up on the roof he came and sat in the oak tree about 30' from where I was. And just now I walked out and came face to face with a smaller owl perched on my retaining wall just feet off my deck. The dude looked at me as if I was the new guy I stepped back in the house and took the dog to pee in the front yard instead. This morning there were four big vultures gathered around a large possum that got hit on the street behind us. They are quicker than the city road kill patrol.

Anyway, I think the new company is interesting. They are neat to watch. Hopefully they don't become a nuisance. I guess I won't be seeing any squirrels around this winter. And I expect no growth of the field mice population 'round here.

Well, time for bed I guess. I'm tired of staying busy.

What do yall think of jerky as a Christmas present for DH?

'night night yall
