A carport would be a HUGE step up for me.

Shotgun??? WAY better options........... =)

I haven't got the patience to take them out one at a time.

Crazy old woman is also resident cat lady. There are lots around but she keeps them so well fed that the damned birds will land right beside them.

Time to bring back the show "Cops"!

I grew up on that show in the late 80s and early 90s. I also have a huge appreciation and respect for what those men and women in uniform have to put up with to keep the rest of us safe. No doubt in some way formed by my hours of watching them on TV as a kid.

So two problems here. This would be classified as a firearm in Canada because of the muzzle velocity so likely not even available and then theirs the Migratory Bird Act.

Every neighbourhood has one, when I lived in Toronto we had Marcia across the street. She was a retired psych nurse. Crazy as a shithouse rat. She had about 10 cats and pidgins in her house.

Too much banging on by the usual suspects and not enough pics. Let’s focus.

Yeah I've got starlings(hundreds), crows(~dozen), pigeons(~8) and a few seagulls, although, thankfully, they don't roost in the trees. Apart from the seagulls I don't think any of them are protected so I think I'd be ok in that regard but that still leaves me with discharging a firearm, probably some possession charge and some reckless something or other.

Ours across the street is Coralynn but we just call her "Jammy-pants" because that's all she ever wears. She has 3 cats and 1 dog of her own but all the other cats in the neighbourhood hang out there because there is always food out. Her dog is a sweetheart but horribly over fed. It should probably be about 15-20 lbs but I swear its got to weigh 50lbs. It can hardly move it's so fat and it's only about 3 years old. Poor thing.

I am famous for the weather improving when I leave town and turning to shit where ever I go. My friends wishing for good weather would post on social media for me to leave town for a week........

It's all good, but if it can happen - it will to me.

So. Our mattress is on the floor while we wait for the new bed frame to show up.

The cat discovered a new hiding place, but I kept stepping on him.

Steps..... had to be taken.

Cones from Amazon- $10.

The look on my wife's face when she walked into the bedroom?

Priceless.

Your cat has you well trained.

I can't help thinking that Lego might be more effective though.

NEfan508 · 03-26-2021, 11:50 AM

my son asked me how did I know how to drive Bos/NYC in the 90's without using gps-NAV, his mind can't comprehend

Update: I sorta cheated with mapquest, downloaded on paper and a yellow marker

Buug959 · 03-26-2021, 11:55 AM

This would really mess with his head. This is what we used to tune our drag cars.
Spark plugs tell you how your engine is running, for better or worse.

NEfan508 · 03-26-2021, 12:14 PM

@LemansE90335xi I'm embracing teck for sure, the information online is incredible, my son learned the basics of driving manual on a 5 min YouTube video likely saved the clutch from that alone, flash tunes increase engine performance 10%+ without much fuss, trouble shooting internal issues with a plug in

But you can't replace experience, I remember my father needing to hear a car idle to determine the issue
