R.O.U.S. & JBX

So last night Amber wakes me up, it's like 4:00 a.m., and she's freaking out because she heard a noise. I listened and sure enough we could hear banging on our bedroom wall. So, I jumped out of bed and grabbed my gun, slipped on my flip-flops, grabbed a flashlight, and I was out the door. I hadn't seen a rodent this big since my mission to Argentina. The thing was mean and ugly, and it took about 5 shots to kill the freaking thing. Check it out!



Oh, speaking of rodents, Sam got a job at Jack In The Box. Check him out in his digs!

  4. Isn't that an Oppossum? Nasty stuff Drew.
    I can't believe Sam has a job! We'll definitely need updates on that.

  6. Ewww... Good for you for getting it! I can't believe you picked it up... That would have freaked me out! I guess it's got to get thrown away somehow...

  8. Isn't that an endangered species? I think it's protected by the state.

  9. Looks like you only hit it once. "It took like 5 shots to put the thing down." Nice try.

  10. Wait? They let you have a gun. I thought if you had a felony it was against the law. Thanks for the photos. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't saw it for myself. Sam working at Jack-In-The-Crack? Wha???

  12. Are you sure it was dead? Maybe it was just playing 'possum.

  13. It's definitely an opossum. They show up on our back deck some times at night.

    They're big and ugly, but not near as "nasty" as rats or mice, they generally stay outside.
