Boris brings in mice, daily... I'm sure daddy and mummy mice talk about Boris when they try to talk some sense into their off spring.. He often kills whole families...
brings all the little ones one at a time
then mum 10 minutes later
brings in dad as last...

Let's be clear about this : There will never be a mouse infestation as long as Boris is around.
He's like the Gestapo for mice... well motivated, efficient, relentless, merciless.



And i just got a love letter from the police... they took a picture of me when i was returning from G-man's place after the engien drop thing...

allowed, 120
measured 141
after correction margin, 132... that's 60 euro's thankyouverymuch.

Still winning statistically... i was doing 160 + and did some serious braking to get to 141
Although they are working on the statistics problem... i saw some lighting in my rearview mirror this morning as well...

Thank God you had the extra weight in the form of a Pelican badge to slow you down... It could have been 133...

That's 60 € less to close the parts gap....

35 light rain, we are bracing for 3 days of sleet and freezing rain. Tucson is looking better all the time

Yes Sir. Good thing about my job, I am portable, and with the exception of state inspections, my credentials are good everywhere.

I told him I had some logistics to work out, looks like mid summer would be the soonest. He understood. Very nice fella, and he is already lining up information about the area and a real estate agent to talk to me. We spent a lot of time talking about the area, well he talked, I just listened, as he giggled at my groaning as he was describing the weather for the next week. I have a job. But that is never an issue for me.
