Speaking of traps - know anything about getting rid of chipmunks? I've got a chipmunk problem.
Little *******s are tunneling under the porch and climbing up the corner pieces on the vinyl siding.
That makes the dog start trying to take off the siding.

The chipmunk population has gone down this spring due to the cat population rising in the
neighborhood. In a month or two we will see the cat populaiton reduced by the hungry foxes
from the nearby golf course.

Trapped a chipmunk yesterday. Took it to the park a couple miles away and let the kids have a 'free

This morning there was a squirrel in the trap. Drove the dogs crazy when my wife took them out the

Ol' Sam is lookin' pretty good.

My pointer goes crazy with empty plastic bottles. She chews them until they stop making all the
crackling noise. Then she wants another.

Dumb dogs. But, you gotta love 'em. Poor Muslims don't know what they're missing.

Here's a question. My dog loves to get under the covers in the bed - head first. She sleeps like a
log up against me. I'm worried she's going to get carbon dioxide poisoning. Ever heard of such a
thing?

Beats me. The last thing I'd do is have Sam Adams sleeping on my bed.
He farts and burps too much.

Mrs.E. has a little ankle biter toy Chihuahua. Ugliest dog I've ever
seen but sorta cool in a way. It sleeps in a crate beside the bed
and buries itself under the blankets and pillows that are in the
crate. Doesn't seem to bother it but then again it's brain is
probably the size of a pea so it doesn't need much air.

The only dog we have that acts like a dog is "Fudge" .... the rescue
dog that Mrs.E. insisted we get a few years back. He's a great dog
but ultra protective of us and our ... or "his" property. Rosie
Chihuahua would set off the alarm if anyone came into the house. Sam
Adams would lick them to death.
Fudge would quietly but very quickly chew their heads off. I've
seen him in action a couple of times when a stranger comes into the
house. Scary.

Well, I guess if the damn dog was going to die from carbon dioxide it'd already be dead. She is

The membership is probably auto mechanics and plumbers! From Wiki: The current initiation fee for
the club is $120,000. The waiting list is approximately 10 years. Once admitted to the club, the
applicant may enjoy the club’s social facilities for a monthly fee while waiting an extra two years
for use of the golf facilities.

Wonder how much the monthly fee while waiting is.

Cool dog, but I was expecting a picture of the 'unusual pen'!!

You're right. Unusual.

John H.


I usually give them to folks in the DEP community who understand what
they are. The triangle shape makes them a pretty comfortable pen to
use. You just need to take some sand paper and buff the burrs off the
top.


Do they hold the ink pretty well?

Yup, but now that I've seen one, I want one. I'll have to keep my eyes open next time I'm playing at
the bay.

BAR is right, just a ball point refill
Two tricks, drill a tiny hole up in the pointy end just past where the
refill stops so it can breathe and open it up inside with a piece of
coat hanger wire that you beat a little flat on one end.
Use epoxy paste or good old JB Weld to hold it in place .

You need a pretty big horseshoe crab and they are getting harder to
find. There is some commercial taking of them and the habitat is being
hurt so they are becoming a species of special concern.
Fortunately they shed their shell in a molt so no crab was harmed in
this project. In fact if this wasn't a molted shell, getting the tail
hollowed out would be harder.


I remember when I was a kid spending summers on the FL west coast and
horseshoe crabs and their shells were everywhere.

Don't the horseshoe crabs figure into the produciton of some drugs? I saw a program where
their blood has some special qualities.

The chipmunk population has gone down this spring due to the cat population rising in the
neighborhood. In a month or two we will see the cat populaiton reduced by the hungry foxes
from the nearby golf course.


Trapped a chipmunk yesterday. Took it to the park a couple miles away and let the kids have a 'free
the chipmunk' day. They loved it.


This morning there was a squirrel in the trap. Drove the dogs crazy when my wife took them out the
front door for a trip to day care.

Doggie Day Care? John, you should be ashamed of yourself.


I was golfing, she was out all day. We played General's Ridge today - an exercise in masochism. I
shot 112. No, I didn't buy a lot of shirts and stuff in the pro shop to celebrate!

The membership is probably auto mechanics and plumbers! From Wiki: The current initiation fee for
the club is $120,000. The waiting list is approximately 10 years. Once admitted to the club, the
applicant may enjoy the club’s social facilities for a monthly fee while waiting an extra two years
for use of the golf facilities.

Wonder how much the monthly fee while waiting is.

Sure is stupid to me.
