… the mice will play (till they’re dead)
by Travis on Jan.06, 2010, under Humor, Personal
Shortly before we left for GA there was a mouse we had busted digging into some things in the garage. This little isolated incident turned into a huge mess in our absence adding to the phrase “while the cat’s away, the mice will play”. Seriously, it was like an army had moved into our garage while our house sat quiet for that week and a half.
My solution?

… the most painful looking, horrific feeling device I could find for a mouse trap. It’s got teeth and all. PETA eat your f`n heart out!! So, I’m not completely without a heart though… I did buy one of those ultrasonic devices to ward off the little buggers. But in the mean time it’s open season on those rodents! So far the score is 1-9. Only one trap has been robbed of the bait but I do believe that crafty mouse bit the big one when he hit the next trap for some more peanut butter. We even got a two for one special with one…
So until they stop coming in, I’ll get excited every time I hear a “snap” or walk out to find another one bit the dust. >=D

I question if < evil streak > is a valid HTML code.
And to continue that thought:

Edit: How terrible is it that I had to put spaces to keep the “HTML” visible.
