Furry Visitors
Earlier this year, the Queen's sister and parents had some unexpected afternoon guests:

Three bears (although poppa bear was replaced by a twin baby bear) - oh the joys of living in Colorado. Here in Texas all we get is the Three Armadillos (although I did see an Ocelot once).

Yeah,yeah. All fun and games until someone gets mauled.  You know, I think there are two kinds of people in the world: Those that have a very “Disney” view of wildlife and those that have a very “Wild Kingdom with Marlin Perkins”. Guess which one I am?  Bwahahahaha. Die, bugs, die!

Sounds like we need to box up a trio of “Possums on the Half Shell” and send them your way to experience first hand.  (They are not that hard to catch since they are nearly blind and don’t hear so good either.)

Trivia note: The ‘dillo roadkill you see everywhere is not from cars hitting armadillos but rather from the opposite scenario.  A car will pass right over an armadillo and leave it unharmed, except for the fact that armadillos jump straight up when startled - usually fatally into the undercarriage of the vehicle overhead.

Ewwwww!

One almost attacked a friend in her yard here a few weeks ago. It made an awful hissing sound and scared the life out of her cat! Not to mention her. Although my crazy friend did get a flashlight to investigate further!

When something hisses at me from the bush by the front door, I am NOT one go poke the bush!  Rather obviously, she has a Disney view of wild animals.  On the other hand, I think they are ALL out to kill me.  (And just ‘cause I’m paranoid doesn’t mean I’m wrong smile

KoF Comment Policy
  1. Address the topic at hand, not of the intelligence, appearance or genealogy of those you disagree with.
  2. Present opinion as opinion. If you are stating a fact, it needs to be backed up with some evidence. Something obvious to you may not be that way for others.
  3. Sweeping generalizations usually demonstrate ignorance and are easily proven incorrect. Avoid them unless you like serving up softballs to the other side.
  4. It is ok if someone doesn't agree with you or see the evidence you provide as compelling. Make your argument as a proof to yourself why your position is correct, instead of an attempt to convert your opponent.
  5. If you feel like you are just banging heads with other participants and the discussion is making no progress, it is fine to quietly drop out of the discussion. This is not considered surrender, as long as you redirect your comment energies to a different entry here at KoF.
