DFW vs. Houston

[IZ]

I won't even get started on that one, suffice to say playing in the jungle (amazon) was much scarier and the snakes were make the beast with two backsing huge.  Let the rug rat loose.

Yeah, I shouldn't worry so much and put my fear of those damn serphants onto him.  Apparently, grandpa already has a Daisy for him anyway.

I saw a Black Widow once.

It died soon after.

I have not seen anything else to worry me too much.

While on the subject of miscellaneous vermin, I live in Flower Mound which is north of DFW airport and west of Lewisville.  There is a small town within a mile or two from where we live called Copper Canyon.  Any guesses as to the name?   

One morning I went out in the garage to get in my car and as I went to open the car door there was a Copperhead right at my feet. 

Flat blade shovels are a must 'round these parts... Unfortunately, the ones we've killed in the yard over the years wouldn't amount to a pair of snakeskin boots.  Useless creatures!

Son's grandpa also bought his dad a Daisy as a kids.  One day he shot it at a tree in great grandpa's yard.  He watched as the BB came back and hit him in the forehead.   

This was a few years before A Christmas Story.

We used to shoot each other with those things back in the day.  Dam they hurt digging them out too.

Never did that stupid.  Just threw those pop-it's and shot each with Roman candles.  A different level of stupid, I guess. 

[muskrat]

And that too.

Been up here all day.  Not sure what to think?

[muskrat]

Not surprising.   So what's the malfunction?
