I agree 100%. When I lived at the house by the pond I had a bad mice problem. I caught white oak snakes and turned loose in the house. Some of my lady friends were not as excited about my method of rodent control as I was.

I had a ermine come clean up.....everything.
Those little guys are absolutely fearless & if they weighed in to the triple digits we'd probably be extinct by now.

That's exactly what the GW said.
Ever see one while in your boxers? In the hallway? 3am?
We live in the woods....had a mouse problem.....it's been two years since this happened and we finally have chipmunks outside again.......it got everything.
GW said I was lucky enough to see one.......and it was beautiful but not...here, in my house. I saw it three times. Supposed to have a ten mile radius. I tracked it the morning after I saw it the first time. It looked in every nook and crack and hole in the snow around the property. Badass little fucker.
The first encounter was after my wife said a few times she saw something bigger then a mouse. So one night I heard something down stairs in the middle of the night. I went down and saw it dragging a big mouse or small rat. It looked at me like fuck you.....it was beautiful.
On a deer hunting trip to a buddy's lodge we had a couple boned out & bagged hanging in a shed - and we started drinking (go figure).
Went out to make sure all was secure (lots of very big bears in the area) & the guy that was with me was drunk a/f.
An Ermine had made his way in & was jumping up trying to get to the meat & this dude says "don't worry, I'll get it" with a chunk of firewood in his hand. LOL!!
He would swing at this little dude & it would be behind him before he even hit the floor!
Needless to say the weasel lived & my buddy passed out from alcohol & exertion.
I gave the little fella a shank for the entertainment.

My only deer stealing story was when Cousin James killed a young doe down at the creek camp and had it in an ice chest, which would not quite close all the way. He had left to get some ice and passed me on the way out. I rode on down to look at it, and a very big hawk had pulled one of the hams out. He tried to fly off with it, but had to drop it. If I hadn't surprised him, I'm sure he would have had a meal off it at least.
I was thinking I'd eat that. But srsly we all know I'd eat a lot of shit

View while waiting the 10-15 minutes after the wife got her jab today. Three more cars came in while we were waiting. The twenty minutes it took to get to town was about the same as we spent on site. I may be getting mine in the weeks to come. (if they have extra like they did today)

This is the DEATH MASK of a young woman who drowned in the River Seine in the 1880's. As was customary in those days, her corpse was put on display in the Paris mortuary, in the hope that someone might recognize her and claim her body. The pathologist on duty became entranced by the girl with the enigmatic half-smile, and so he commissioned a plaster cast made of her face. This mask was replicated many times over. She became known as "L'Inconnue de la Seine,” or “The Unknown Woman of the Seine.”
In 1955, a toy maker named Asmund Laerdal created what we now know as the CPR doll. Asmund wanted his mannequin to have a natural appearance. Remembering a mask on the wall of his grandparents' house many years earlier, he decided that the L'Inconnue de la Seine would become the face of Resusci Anne. So you see, this anonymous woman who drowned in the 19th century is responsible for saving many, many lives the world over. It is said that she has the most kissed face of all time.
I hope you enjoyed this little histmed tale!
