Nature's revenge

Be careful trying to rid yourselves of little critters! News from the AP.

Reminds me of the story I heard on Public Radio about the two cops who tried to remove a squirrel from a home's attic. It's tail caught on fire and in running under the couch practically burned the house down. Hilarious - but not for the owners.

  1. You know, whenever I want to get rid of a pest, I think about how I would rather die.

    Would you rather face the guillitine; be stuck on sticky paper until you die of fright or starvation; be burned alive; or be poisoned?

    With me, it's the guillitine, hands down. Especially if I don't know it's coming.

    People are so inhumane.

  2. I read somewhere that dying from starvation or thirst is not a bad way to go. How do I know this? I'll write about it sometime. But being stuck somewhere for a little animal would be an extremely frightening - foxes and other critters biting off their leg to escape a trap.
