My guess as to what stole your traps may be any one of the following:

Today happens to be Mighty Mouse's birthday.

I think these are outside Rats coming in to offer themselves up for our fine X-mas dinner. I have closed their big old rat holes they gnawed in the walls (2places) and in the floor (1 place) and I am working my way around the house looking for more or these holes. This leads me to the next question, how many holes can a house have before it falls down, this is an old old house and over the years there have been lots of mice and rats who have eaten their way in, it stands to reason that sooner or later there will be just one hole too many.

So it would seem reasonable that for X-mas dinner we will have Rats with and without rat poison for the harty eater and little fozen mice for the dainty eater. Please let me know how many of each to prepare and oh yes please bring your own crash cage in case of the house falling down.


ps Larry, you are way too concerned about the sex habits of sheep and this on Linda's birthday.

Nathen, I'm making and freezing lots of cornbread for the stuffing. We'll need lots of that, and lots of yams; I expect we're on the brink of a mass Blunderite conversion to vegetariansim.

Nate, how do you know those rats are not gnawing those holes to get OUT of the house rather than in?? I mean maybe they have been talking to the sheep???

Please pass the Yams, Ceas! <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/tiedye.gif" width=17 height=17>

There might be a problem with the X-mas dinner, I was storing my mice in a green can beside the road and this am, some dude in a big white truck stopped and stole all my frozen mice.

Maybe he had a lot of hungry snakes ...

Oh, yeah, Nathen. What with you providing so much free food, you could be adding a reptile problem ... would solve the rodent problem, though ...

All my cleaning has produced a bucket of brown sprinkles which I think will make a great soup, so the X-mas dinner is back on, anyone interested?

No, sorry, as much as I'd love to make it, I'm afraid that I have already put that day aside to re-arrange my sock drawer.Maybe next year.

sorry to hear that Larry, I know how important doing your sock drawer can be and I would never do anything to get you out of your drawers.
It appears that everyone else will be here however and isn't that what makes for a great meal?

Nathen,,,what are you doing with the pelts?
Cindy would like me to get her a fur coat for Christmas.....

RATS, THOSE BASTARDS DONE ATE ME FLOOR....

They ate out under the bathroom floor and I just replaced it, so now where will they go?

Have not seen any for a few days but I have traps set and all the pelts will be properly tanned and free for the asking, however I will sew them together.

My advice to you Nate is to waterproof your house and set it afloat on a large lake or ocean, and then drill holes in the floor to sink it. Everyone knows that rats leave a sinking ship, so I would assume they would do the same if in a sinking house.

Childless turn to meals of testicles
From correspondents in Taipei
January 04, 2003

MOUSE testicles have reportedly become a hot seller in Taiwan since five infertile couples said they conceived after eating dishes containing the organs.

The craze took hold after a bulldozer driver in the southern county of Pingtung and his wife conceived their long-awaited baby about a month ago, the United Daily News said.

The couple had previously consulted western medical doctors but were not given the cause of their infertility, the paper said.

The man, identified as Hsueh Ting-fu, and his wife first learned that the mouse testicles were helpful to fertility two months ago when they were taken by a friend to a local restaurant to taste a dish made from the organs.

They then bought six kg of raw mouse testicles at the restaurant, which became part of their daily meals until the pregancy was confirmed.

I have long wondered what those little round meaty looking things were in egg rolls.<img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/confused.gif" width=15 height=22> <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/sickpuke.gif" width=15 height=15>
