re: Eviction

The only good thing mice have done for me is chew through the packaging of some bread mix and made me throw it out... why good, the used by date was about 3 years overdue... the flour was rancid.

 I sure am glad that I checked the belts before turning on the drill - that would have been messy. 

In my late teens, when I was 20, I used to have pet snakes that I transported loose in my car, usually snuggled up on the front bench seat next to me... don't believe the hipe, they can be affectionate.  However, some passengers got skitty and squirmed around like a dog seeking an open window, so I used to put her into the glovebox.  One late night/am I forgot it was in the glovebox and went to be. Next morning when I started the car to go to work I heard a quick sharp faint rumble near the front of the car. On opening the bonnet I was met with a spattering of blood and flesh.  The theory was that at night the snake must have detected the warmth from my radiator, crawled out of the glovebox through some hole and snuggled up around the fan... oops... not much left for my traditional 1.5m x 60mm x 60mm grave. 

If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
