I was done in by a mouse
Today while digging around in some of my old childhood boxes I found that my collection of magazines I bought off the shelf back in the day supplied some mouse something to chew on. It wasn't pretty, but not real bad in that the cheesy guy only took out about 10% or less of the magazines, but still the damage was done.
One thing I did find was a letter that was sent to me date back in 1980. The guy was apologizing to me so taking so long to get back to be, and sent a check I wrote him back. Yeah so what you say, well this check, and letter was for the purchase of my 1st Cylon helmet. The transaction was completed later on, and it also included gloves, and arm gauntlets. One of the arm gauntlets wasn't Cylon, but Bobo Fett. I also found some other cool things I don't recall buying, but well I guess I did. It was 3 small envelopes of 16mm film clippings from Galactica. A nice little surprise. I also came across a few magazines that had Galactica details that I haven't seen on eBay before. My scanner isn't working or I would scan these pages, and show it off. The photos in these mags I haven't seen in decades, and names I don't recall. One cool photo was a group of three guys working on the Galactica getting it ready for the "Fire In Space" episode. Rigging it with effects I suppose.

I packed it back away before I thought about the camera side of getting it posted, so I will dig it out tomorrow and snap a few HiRez pics.

Attack of the mouse part two.
Seems like the cats took a nap a few days ago, and let one of these furry guys in the house. The mouse is hiding under the frig, and the cats are having a good time watching the area around the frig as the mouse tries to make a run for it now and then, but once the cats hear or see anything that are all over it, but yet to get anything, but as I am typing the mouse is making a move, and the cats are ready to pounce. Will this now 3 day ordeal come to an end. Maybe Cy can just blast the vermin.

Re: I was done in by a mouse
I tell ya my cat is lazy about this mouse for some reason. He is a terror outside dealing deadly blows to the local mouse population bringing me 3-4 mice to the front door each week, but he just watches this guy run around in front of him and doesn't give two hoots about him. Time for the mouse trap.

Re: I was done in by a mouse
Try pointing your cat lazer light at it, maybe kitty will pounce the mouse by accident.

Re: I was done in by a mouse
Believe it or not I have, and they BOTH have seen the mouse with the laser on mouse, and the mouse wasn't moving, and the laser was so they by passed the mouse for the laser.....ack...dumb kitties, or dumb owner for confusing them. They did get a craw or teeth into the mouse about 10 seconds or so from the screaming the mouse left out, and then escaped back under the frig. Time to get the traps with cheese of something since the cats aren't taken care of the mouse inside the house, but oh yeah they went and trapped one, and left a bloody mess at the front door for me this morning.Cy wrote:Try pointing your cat lazer light at it, maybe kitty will pounce the mouse by accident.

Use Peanut butter instead of cheese.
