... snip Yes, I rescued this feral kitten and now he's all grown up. He's still very timid around people and hides when strangers visit but he's a good hunter. He mostly hunts insects as that is about all that can get aboard. There was a mangrove snake he cornered one time in the lazarette just forward of the outboard motor, though. I had to grab it and toss it overboard but it swam to the dinghy and crawled up along the transom and got in so I rowed it over to the shore and put it off so it wouldn't keep coming back. Is that kind of snake poisonous? Yikes! No, they aren't poisonous but they do bite and they have sharp teeth. You have to grab them right behind their head. My brother had a dog that went after two killer bees that got into the house. They chased my bro into the bathroom and he said he could hear them bumping against the door, which attracted the dog. Munch, munch, no more bees! I'm surprised they didn't sting the dog's mouth. snip Yeah, I agree! The builders around here really took it hard when the economy went into the toilet. I know a bunch of them through work. They were scrambling for a while - still are I guess, and those guys actually made things. Yes, while the government grows bureaucrat jobs the private sector takes it in the shorts. All the more reason to read "Atlas Shrugged" to see where this all leads. I don't much like our new gov. Brown... too lame-brain liberal, but he's talking some decent stuff about cutting some of these nonsense programs. I would have preferred Meg... tough as nails, but she got sandbagged by the volume of disinformation about the nanny. We'll see with Brown. Hate to say it but Brown's a liberal moron. And those who voted for him are liberal moron drones. Ryan was the far superior choice, IMO. Instead the land of fruits and nuts re-elects a has-been liberal failure. Well, that's the very definition of idiocy. Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. snipped to end Not painful I hope! :-) Ouch! It hurts NOW, just thinking about it. You're BAD! Wilbur Hubbard |
