I almost went for a ride today.
43f for a high and I was considering breaking out the Guzzi and hitting the road. Plenty of warm cloths, but instead I got a kink in my lower back that kept me at home. Nothing unusual. This happens 4-5 trimester a year. Aleeve and swearing it out for a couple days and it’ll eventually pop back into place.
So much for the new year ride. But they’ll be plenty of time for that later. Oh well... |

Minus 12 C this morning. Sidewalks treacherous to walk on. Luckily I have a pair of Icer cleat type sandles that strap onto my boots.

I kicked one at the Giant Food office in Landover. Surprised the hell out of me. Most of what we have here are Norwegian rats. But, they may be the same thing. They don't look any different than the ones you have in your picture. I was talking about the roach. I agree I mostly saw Norwegian rats in DC. They were thick down there where Harry works. The IBM office was 1801 K and at night the rats were running around K street eating out of Marion Barry's cardboard trash cans. They would eat a hole in the bottom and go up in there to graze. You could kick one of those cans and a half dozen rats would come running out. The biggest difference between a roof rat (rattus rattus) and a Norway (Rattus norvegicus) other than size (roof rats are smaller) is the length of the tail. A roof rat has a tail longer than the body and fairly thin. A Norway has a shorter fat tail. The roof rats around here are country rats and really not much different than squirrels. I am sure they will be sharing the same fleas and thus the same diseases. You don't want either of them in your attic. ;-) |

The locals called 'em 'palmetto bugs' when I lived down there. I suppose they thought that sounded better than 'giant roaches', which is what they are! The big difference is they are natives and not the nasty imports that get in your food, live in your furniture and eat the bindings out of your books. I lived with "apartment house" roaches for a good part of my early life in DC and these are nothing like them. BTW "palmetto bug" is just something we say so as not to scare off the tourists. This is a "Palmetto Squirrel" http://gfretwell.com/wildlife/rattus%20rattus.jpg My daughter discovered those things when she moved to Savannah, GA. You have them in DC. I kicked one at the Giant Food office in Landover. Surprised the hell out of me. Most of what we have here are Norwegian rats. But, they may be the same thing. They don't look any different than the ones you have in your picture. The Norwegian is most likely bigger. We have them, but being near a seaport guaranteed that item. We use to shoot them along the shore in Berkeley, Albany area when we were young. 20 ga. I wonder if maybe all the shootings in Chicago are just folks shooting their 9mm's at rats and missing? Or maybe the rats there just look like humans. Things to ponder... |
I almost went for a ride today.
