3. Is it on the roof?
Or IN it? We had a raccoon dig through the siding and get into our attic.

9. In Rio? Shit, I was watching out for kids with knives trying to mug me.
Didn't even think about looking out for those. Guess I got lucky. :D

10. Well, by the time that I got my drunk ass up off the couch
and found a flashlight... it was gone.

Holding a lighter up didn't help either.....

(Picture me in yard holding up lighter a la FREEBIRD!)

I think it's ON the roof not IN the roof 'cause there's no attic over this part of the house.

I'm thinking possum or raccoon.. it sounds LARGE...

I'll go look again if it comes back. Unless I go to bed. :D

12. Don't worry it's only a rat
You probably can't find it because it's somewhere in your walls :P

15. I use to live in NY
I thought that a rat was a cat one time :scared: so, that's how large they get.

It's probably an opossum and I'm not kidding I had one living in my attack one time.

13. Climbing up on the roof, drunk, holding up a lighter...
Edited on Thu Nov-18-04 01:30 AM by herbster
...in the middle of the night trying to catch the creature making "scratching" sounds... is a recipe for becoming a Darwin Award nominee.

Great visual image, though.

edit and disclaimer: I realize you weren't planning on climbing after the creature, and I am not implying that you would be a candidate for a Darwin Award. ;)

18. Climbing up the Walls
I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement
And if you get too far inside
You'll only see my reflection

It's always best when the light is off
I am the pick in the ice
Do not cry out or hit the alarm
You know we're friends till we die

And either way you turn
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there
Climbing up the walls

It's always best when the light is off
It's always better on the outside
Fifteen blows to the back of your head
Fifteen blows to your mind

So lock the kids up safe tonight
Put the eyes in the cupboard
I've got the smell of a local man
Who's got the loneliest feeling

That either way he turns
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there

Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls
