Takamine guitars, kinda surprised to see that. Gots a four string version of one. Use peanut butter in the live trap. The critters will trip the thing trying to get the stuff.

Or is this simply the first vein-slashing of a slow, merciless death of the GOP?

Hillary Clinton wrote the book on how to run a bad campaign and loose an election

Loose elections much like loose teeth are a bad thing but naked communist food lines are a good thing.

Our pest guy went around our house, blocked all the possible entrances except one, and put an exclusion device at that opening. It allows the critter to exit but not get back in. You can get one of those one-way cages online. It’s prolly something you could do. You may want to try getting moth balls into the area you… Read more »

Can any of y’all recommend someone to remove a squirrel or other large vermin from my attic. I’m pretty sure I’ve been upgraded from mice/rats. It moves too fast to be an opossum so that’s why I think it’s a squirrel.

Hillary Clinton wrote the book on how to run a bad campaign and loose an election, but Michael Bloomberg is a maverick and is rewriting the rules. With the most embarrassing social media team ever, the billionaire busybody thinks he can attract young voters by acting cool and hip. Actually, he thinks he can get elected by identifying as a… Read more »

In a suburb outside of Austin, taxpayers just lost millions of their hard-earned dollars after school district officials fell for an email phishing scam.

Officials in Manor Independent School District are working with local police and even the FBI to track down approximately $2.3 million that was transferred to a fraudulent bank account.

After dog #2 was diagnosed with heart worms, we had to wait two months before we could bring him in to kill off the adult worms. We dropped him off Monday morning. If all goes well, we can pick him up tomorrow evening.

Dog #1 is DE-PRESSED that her friend is missing.

Almost, the Alabama Indians went to Texas, the Seminoles were sent to Tennessee or Kentucky, I don’t remember which, Hamous probably knows. It’s a mixture. Most of the Muscogee and Cherokee ended up in Oklahoma. Those that didn’t assimilated into the Deep South or got chased into the Everglades, along with escaped slaves, and became Seminoles. Most of the Seminoles… Read more »

Texpat @93 I’d bet you could plot a graph of women that dropped off the popularity chart after they did one or two nude scenes in the movies.  It is like they showed their stuff, removed the fantasy and people dropped them like a hot rock.  Seems the only women immune to that is scream queens like Adrienne Barbeau noted… Read more »

She had some rough mid-teen years. Like most girls.

She’s looking better all the time, but the jury’s out until she’s thirty-five. Like most women.

I’d bet money on the second or third full featured film after she leaves Blue Bloods we will find out if she is a C or D cup.

NASCAR is not rigged izzit GJT? Well, I consider “rigging” being from an act of deception or hiding. NASCAR guys intentionally spin out or block to help a teammate, right in the wide open for all to see. Every week someone is penalized for doing something illegal to their car. But old Smokey Yunick was a hero back in the… Read more »

Rafael Nadal is the bomb. That kid plays at a superhuman level. He is the best of all time in my opinion. He and Djokovic are the best. Head to head it’s 29-26 Djokovic and mostly in the later rounds. The fact that they’ve played each other 55 times shows how much they’ve dominated tennis. 26 of those times have… Read more »

Hell the Football Patriots were accused of something similar.   the curse of the new technological society.
