Update to something I believe I posted about several weeks ago: I found an ooollllld package of Pepperidge Farm cookies (biscuits to you Brits, with delusions of grandeur) and opened it, only to find that it smelled horrible. As soon as I could, I dumped it outside for whatever critters may have been interested. Well, most of them disappeared quickly, but a few were left untouched for weeks. Then last week, the last one mysteriously moved from a porch step up to the handrail right against the house. It's still there, but may have been nibbled at a little bit.

Well from what I have seen and read(it should be here Thursday and my serious exploration of it will take some time to follow, as I continue to re-train very rusty fingers) The Line 6 Variax should do everything but make my coffee.. hopefully there is an upcoming software update for that. Honestly some of the things it can do are a bit frightening to someone used to playing with vintage guitars. It might not be fuzzy and cute but it should be nice. Janice |

Thank you, everyone, for all of the wonderful raccoon name suggestions. Five surviving kits is the biggest litter I've seen! At this point I cannot tell any of the babies apart, with the exception of one who has particularly light fur. Pilar waited a very long time to bring her litter by and chances are I will still be confused as to which raccoon is which when the babies are weaned. Definitely great names! I'll reserve "Oliver Klosov" for the next litter. ____________ |

Thank you Angela for making me a godfather. From what I gather I am required to make sure they are brought up to be responsible raccoons. So in that regard I am scouring the internet looking for trash cans that are NOT raccoon proof for your entire nieghborhood up to a city block. I do hope that is satisfying for you:) [/quote] Old James |

Listen buster, I'm crazy-busy-slammed the rest of the Fridays in August, but come September, I intend you re-educate regarding my royal pun nature. Edit... Whoops! "... I intend to re-educate you regarding..." (Must have had a little too much wine this evening.) |
