  1. Now I heard.. don't know how good this works.. but if they're in an exterior wall, find the entrances.. go out at night with plastic sheeting, old shower curtain, or even cutup and taped together garbage bags, and seal the plastic over the area all the way to the ground, including both entrances, but leave an airspace. Then set off the entire 3pack of bug foggers under the plastic sheeting to "smoke" them out. Think the deep penetrating dry foggers for like $10 a box does the trick.
  2. First of all let me start out by saying GO DAWGS!!! Second, Epson salts and hot water are great for drawing out the venom. Table salt works too in a pinch, so good call there. Third, did you find their rear exit? They almost always have one, watch the general area today just in case they're slightly still pissed off and swarming around it as you don't want your dogs getting into them if any are still around. Being a manly man I still operate under the rule the only thing for the nests are pouring undiluted gasoline in both front and back entrances, but at these gas prices..
  3. Naw, that's just class action suits, where the lawyers win and we get a gift certificate for money off another crappy product from the corporation being sued. IN personal litigation suits you can actually get .. well half of $50million is $25million.. minus taxes.. $12million.. pay off all the expert witnesses you hired.. $2million.. pay off whatever it was you were suing over in the first place.. er.. dinner at longhorns?
  4. Exactly, because it's nation-wide. And you wonder why people file $50million dollar suits against corporations. You gotta bait your lawyer somehow, with half the future reward, to go up against these folks for years.. and years.. and years.. and years.. and years.. and years.. and years.. Remember in America, the person with the most money to outlast the other in court... Wins.
  5. My paternal grandfather, who was a postal delivery person in Atlanta for 40 years told me about this one. Take a cat, dunk it in a bucket of water, stick it ass-backwards into the mailbox, so when the letter carrier opens the box.. They get your full complaint.
  6. The Sundial Restaurant situated 723 feet above the city of Atlanta.
  7. +11 I'm also beside myself that tax payers monies are being thrown into the pockets of a corporation who then in turns recycles it back into the war-chests of local politicians where they can use it for (re)election campaigns.
  8. Hey what's up with Chinese food having no cheese in it? And no I don't mean the buffet places with 3 day old pizzas and hot dogs in the hot plates. And cream cheese in Crab Rangoon don't count.

    Has-Been? Dust-Bin? L.L. Bean? Throw us a bone here.
  10. Eeek. Lacquers and Enamels in the rattle cans are much easier to clean up when you jump on them right away. The longer they sit the more they have a chance to cure then it becomes much more difficult to remove. If it was on vinyl siding I'd try something like goof-off, mineral spirits, or even WD-40 and a rag. On other types of siding that have already been painted you still may be able to remove as suggested above, but don't be surprised if you remove the actual house paint underneath as well. If it's already set, which by now with these temps it may well be, and you don't feel
  11. HA, mine says the same thing! I know it's like well if it hurts your shoulder so dang much why do you continue to load it up with change. Finally i made her take an entire pickle jar, the large kind, to Publix to put in the change spinner, counter, thingie, and she made like over $35. Just goes to show ladies, when they act embarrassed around you, especially out in public, remind them that one day when you're old and grey and they take you out, you might keep them at the register for 10 minutes while you count out the exact change on a $10 purchase for which you only have two one do
  12. Man.. You made me run to the living room and cut on the TV.. What a mean trick..
  13. Yeah a police car just pulled up here with a haggard lady at the wheel and a hand-cuffed teenager in the back being thrown out in my yard. I'm going to go get my broom and tell them to "Shooo"!
  14. Totino's? You can doctor that cheese on a cracker bad boy right up.
  15. Next time you take them shopping and they slink off away from you, as they are want to do, start yelling his name across the store until he comes up going "Ssssh mom!" I mean mine did it to me at that age, and look how I turned out. No wait don't look. Just know I was that way too and I love my momma now and think she's cool, altho I do give her shiz about paying for everything out of her change purse now. I mean really mom, it's a $5 lottery ticket, here I have a $5 to give the lady, as we don't have all day while you count out nickles.
  16. They still have those? ... Answering the phone? You're pulling my leg.
  17. I'm living proof, but the common sense eventually begins to return as we approach our thirties, then fades again in our 50's.
  18. Every time I call my Dr's to get my refills I get a busy signal. She must work the phone at mines office, keepin' all those folks on the line asking to fully describe their aches and pains along with their entire medical history starting from before their first birthday. And BTW if she really is the one that works at my Dr's she's really really hot, and not in a Georgia summertime sorta way.
  19. +1 That's why I make mine with meatballs and spicy Italian sausage, so I have something to eat while pushing the sauce covered noodles around on my plate before proclaiming I'm full.
  20. He's a crab fishing captain that told one of his crewmen, then told the deck boss to tell that crewman again, if he rolled his eyes at the captain one more damn time he could swim home.
  21. I swear Capt. Keith said that exact same thing on that crab fishing show just last week.. and the week before.. and..
  22. It's illegal to open someone elses mail that has shown up in your mailbox. It is NOT illegal to write "return to sender", "misdelievered", or "not at this address" on said mail, as that is how the Postal Office requests to do it. The Mail person was just mad they got caught out not giving a "smack" about doing their job, because it is their job to catch this. USPS link in the quote above.
  23. I apologize ladies. You'd think that sitting here every night at home while my wife watches her "shows" on soapnet tv tween 6-8pm, I'd have learned by now.
  24. I bet she's secretly Capt. Keith from the Wizard.
