More ruminations, rambles, rants and raves from the downhill side of the mountain.
Just so you know exactly where I stand vis-a-vis today's polarized politics, let me recommend this organization to you.
And I also recommend my gentle employer to you as well. The Barnes & Noble Affiliate Network, which seemed to have stopped working, is back in operation, so the links and banners are working again.
Now, go buy some books.

What's the Matter with Kansas?
Sunday, July 06, 2003
The saga of the squirrel invasion continues apace. Last weekend we had the entry points used by the nasty little beasts repaired. The gentleman who did the work did a lovely job and we were thrilled with the results. Until Tuesday. Tuesday we heard what sounded like gnawing coming from the wall in my office. Wednesday I put out peanuts in the basement. Thursday they were gone. We have tenant(s). So, that afternoon I put out the borrowed Hav-a-Hart trap, and I baited it with peanuts. Damn squirrel(s) ate the peanuts without triggering the trap. I oiled all the working parts (to make sure that they were now on a hair trigger!) and rebaited the trap with an apple coated with peanut butter and with peanuts stuck in to add to the desireability of the treat. I also left a peanut or two lying near the trap to get the freeloader(s) in close...didn't work. They took the peanuts and didn't get near the apple bait. The war continues!
