I bet this guy would have had a great story...

PORT ANGELES, Wash. | Rangers in Washington state suspect an encounter with a mountain goat killed a hiker in Olympic National Park.
The park service says Robert H. Boardman, 63, of Port Angeles was hurt Saturday near the park’s Klahhane Ridge and died hours later at a Port Angeles hospital. Officials said an early investigation indicates they were caused by an encounter with a goat.

Rangers tracked down and killed the goat. A veterinary pathologist will analyze it.

not sure what is more unbelievable...a goat killing a man, or the fact that they tracked the bastard down and killed it.

About a month ago, my cat went missing.  Turns out, dad put some rat poison (or something) in the yard to "keep out the squirrels."  Rumblings around the Dlew household are that kitty got into said poison (or something).

That cat sucked anyways though.  New cat is way better.

I saw a manatee that had most of it's back flipper deal chopped off by a boat at a manatee facility the weekend before last.  It was eating whole heads of lettuce like it was nothing

I saw a girl walking 2 (two!) wiener dogs on Sunday.  Ever notice how short their legs are?  Hey wiener dogs, get longer legs, would ya?

Why is it so hard to catch a bird/squirrel with a trap made of a milk crate with a stick propping up one end with a string tied to the stick while you wait and hide behind a tree like 20 ft away?  Seems like this should work a lot of the time.

Are you using any kind of bait?  Could be your problem.

When I was younger, I had a baby raccoon named Carlton ( <------ FPOBA fan).

Anyway, we would feed Carlton sugar cubes.  Turns out raccoons clean their food in water before eating it.  So Carlton would just sit there spinning that sugar cube in the water until it was totally dissolved!  It was literally the cutest thing in the entire world. 

Carlton was one amazing

My 80 pound lab mix thinks he's a lapdog.  Also, his breath smells like elite dog food.

You should use beer. Squirrels love beer.

Oddly enough, racoons prefer malt liquor.
