Update:
1 sticky trap was laying on top of the other. However, there was a little fur on the trap which was on top. While I would have liked to have gotten him in one piece, I can live with getting Chester small pieces at a time. |

Wonder how Chester is feeling this morning? |

I had to drag out my big coat this week. It was in the upper 30s one morning.

I had 5 layers (t-shirt, long sleeve t-shirt, flannel, hoodie, FR shirt) on yesterday and was comfortable heat wise, although I was tied off at the top of a 60' shaft so I wasn't completely comfortable.

Hey Chester! I took care of a couple of your country cousins up here in Ohio last night. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/nutkick.gif)
Two of them on one sticky trap! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/whip.gif) |

hey mitch, aren't you pretty good with a .22, didn't you have a nice one?
If kevin hasn't gotten rid of all of his again maybe he could ship one to you.......I'm sure that overkill scope would let you focus in on his beady little eye, wouldn't even make a big hole in the base board. Then again there always in the mace route, that's a really good idea. |

A moment of silence while we pay respects to Chester da Mouse ... NOT!
Update: After all the traps we had laid, the corridors of doom built and the sleepless nights anticipating a "THWACK" ... we got him! But not by any of those methods ... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) The wife noticed him scurrying along the wall and pinned him behind an ornamental tray. She came and got me and we began trying to figure out how to snare him. All of a sudden his tail peeked out from under the tray and THWACK! I snagged it. me ===> (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/nutkick.gif) <=== Chester (IMG:http://webpages.charter.net/mitchntx/Chester1.jpg) We now have him in a DeMonte glass jar trying to figure what to do next. I'm savoring the moment. Maybe I should contact DelMonte and say we have a mouse in one of their jars ... race car needs new tires. I'm certainly glad this little chapter of life in Granbury has ended. You folks in the big city don't have a clue what exciting night life really is. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/drink.gif) Kevin ... what is your mailing address. I have a present for Midnight! |

Perhaps Midnight will have a newfound respect for Mitch now?

QUOTE (GlennCMC70 @ Oct 9 2009, 10:48 PM) anyone ever figure out who was posting as "Chester"? That one is too easy, but I have admin tools... Chester actually posted from 4 IP addresses. 1 of them twice (Oct 18th), 2 of them once (Oct 16th and another on Oct 9th) and 1 of them six times on Nov 3rd. Only one of those IP's isn't specific to Chester, it was also used by another member. That member has used 906 IP addresses to post here. One of those 906 IP addresses matches one that Chester used and that member used it two times to post on Oct 8th. Of course I could have just e-mailed him at his e-mail address. Nope, couldn't tell ya who it might have been... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) |
