    My coworkers are probably wondering why I'm sitting over here laughing at 6:42AM. Yeah, I had some stuff stuck up my tailpipe once, tried to dig it out with a coat hanger, MAN did that hurt. You guys reminded me of when I was trying to teach my Thai coworker some new English words. I was really suprised when he didn't know what the word "mousetrap" meant. When I asked him what he does when he has mice in his house that he wants to get rid of, he said, "Get Cat".
    Richard Gere? I don't get it.

    There was an urban legend floating around a few years ago (at least I think it was a legend) that Gere had to be rushed to the hospital to remove a gerbil from his exhaust chute.

    For getting rid of mice, mothballs don't work all that well, plus they stink. Fabric softener sheets do not work. Mouse traps work.

    I asked a doctor once about the mouse up the poop chute deal. He said that once they're past the back door, there is plenty of room in there.

    I wrote up a contract with my cat, Old Blue. I provide a nice warm wool blanket on the hood of my 250 PF coupe for him to curl up on, a bowl of water, a bowl of food (but, not a full bowl) and he takes care of any mice that venture into the garage. So far, it has been a successful arrangement. He even leaves me the stomachs of the mice. Even cats have some standards, he prefers the heads and shoulders, definitely not the stomachs.

    Heard that one too. I think the performing surgeon was Dr John Holmes.

    I plan on shoving something in my pipes - I don't need this problem.
