Pat, I'm the Irish Spring solution.  Just throw them on the ground around the area you do not want deer in.   Replish if they melt away.

 

Sorry about the wrong credit. If I use the Irish Spring can I expect to look out the window and see this?

Man they are droping like flies! Now with Karl Malden thats five in one week. Thats gotta be a first for the # of TV celebs to pass at one time.

   No luck with finding a job yet. Something better come along soon.

Chief: Whats the update on the wallaby?? ......................Steve

Make that two Molsons.  I love exploring Canada.  It is a fascinating land with great people who know how to fish.

Hope they can finally help you learn how to fish.  I've been trying for years and some people, you just can not help. 

Hot walk in the park with Lucy.  No wallaby.  Several folks from Vet's office and interested parties are there hoping he will hop by.  They think he is just hiding very well.  I think he may have hopped away from there and is somewhere else.  May be at my pond.

OK experts, Do you think Irish spring might keep rabbits away? We have a major problem, they love our garden. Certain types of flower buds, plant leaves and green pepper plants. No I CANNOT use a 22, we live within the city limits and that is a major offense.  S.J.

RT,

       Parcel Post is very slow.  I bought a copy of Resident Evil 0 from a seller in Utah, and it took about two weeks to get to PA.  Try contacting the seller to see what is up. Priority Mail is much faster.

Jim I emailed him on monday afternoon andI yet to hear a response from him. On the positive side thou I did receive it today but I haven't seen it yet as I'm at work and wife said I had a package come in. And Whats that another train?!

I told her about it 2 weeks ago when I won it but she forgot till i told her i told you 2 weeks ago .

Okay chief I hear wahlaby meat is good but not sure if you grill it or what but I'm sure you can come up with a good reciepe ( oops I wasn't supose to say that here was I

Sheeesh! Wallaby issues one minute----Deer issues the next!!

Wallaby might taste good but I'm not sure it is really game meat----OOPS!! Did I say that a little too loud?

BTW-- the one thing that I know about Wallaby is that they hide REAL GOOD---they'll hide ANYWHERE

As for Deer----OK, I use a compound bow when hunting---if in season, that is. The only thing I found that worked was an ultrasonic beeper that a friend uses when up in cottage country near Algonquin Park. 'Spring'---the little black/white in my avatar---scared the bejabbers out of one that got a little too close to the back screen patio door one night. All I saw was this furball fly at the screen and then heard this crashing sound from the deck---I ran to the door and saw this deer just booking it over the back fence----meanwhile there was 'Spring' hanging off the screen going ---"Meh? Mc--Mc--Mc--"---clicking away to no one now that the deer was gone--

I'm having a Molsons to honor all of you-----and to honor Karl Maldens memory RIP

Buckeye --  sorry about the momentary lapse in addressing the Roseyville Rascal.  For some odd reason I can't call him Chief, just seems wrong.  On your second thought --  prohibition has NOT been lifted in Iowa except in Johnson County, home of the Iowa Hawkeye's, and you know what kinds of dread that has brought to that community   I'll try and be more judicious in my future salutations.

It's CANADA DAY .....

Ah, that explains today's sunshine girl photos!  Is that considered proper use of a Canadian flag?  No, I'm not posting a link, google is your friend. lol

I'm still here, just haven't had anything to post.   Maybe have something to say after I catch up on the rest of this new "POT." 

[Banks]

Hello all,

Pat, a local truck farmer uese a propane cannon to repel deer. It can be set to regularly shoot. It can also be adjusted for how loud.

Sir James. Get some 22 cal. CB caps. They will do in a rabbit with little more noise than a pellet gun.

Dwiemer. Thanks for the reminder to remember our fallen public servants

Prayers for all who need them.

[sir james I]

Good evening

Well the rain showed up about two hours ago. Not much more than a shower. Got my running done this morning and have done little else since. So have some banilla and rootbeer with me and we will wait for  the Tardis...S.J.

[ChiefEagles]

Tired!!!  Everything has been soaker hosed and watered.  Garden to all of Pam's shrubs and flowers.  All in hopes of rain by Sunday.  Seems the Yanks are holding all the rain up Nawth.  Showering and then bed.  Still no sign of Sidney the Wallaby.  Good night all.

[blownout cylinder]

Ah, that explains today's sunshine girl photos! 

AH!!--- Good ol' Toronto Sun. Wonderful paper that------

Got the fireworks done just a few minutes ago---just in time for the dang rain to start up again. We keep trying to convince these rainclouds to go south but they keep coming back!!.

We had, for the neighbourhood show about 125 people show up------

[Brutus]

Hmm - maybe it is a leprechaun running around Roseyville???  That soap might be attracting the Wee Folk

Patrick, hope you are continuing to improve!!  That's a clever device - the radio under the bucket!

Don   That was Great man! 

Running a little earlier today, so I'll watch for a few more beacons and porch lights   Scope is working and we'll be on the way soon!

[8ntruck]

Sunny & low 80's today.

97Probe - creepers can be fun.  Friend of mine got a ride on his when the 1/2" drill he was using grabbed.  Round & round until the cord wound up and pulled out of the wall!

Not much else - later, all.

[ChiefEagles]

WOW!!!  Sidney is getting a bath.  I got out of shower and weather alert went off.  Seems out of no where and un-predicted thunderstorm came up and is hitting Roseyville.  All my watering is being washed with strong down pours and lightning.  Worse T'storm we have had this year.  Thank you Lord.  We needed the rain.  It is pouring.  Good night.

[MichRR714]

 Holy moley....busy day at the office and I miss 4 pages of action.....Happy July everyone!!!!!

[strogey]

 Still no sign of Sidney the Wallaby. 

 

Chief!

Maybe your residents should keep an eye out for any "tell tail" signs.....Check here for more info:

Hope this helps!

[ChiefEagles]

Morning all.  Well, the grass is happy after that surprise T'storm last night. 

Hey Strogey, did I ask you earlier, are you near Spokane?  Was there and Post Falls, ID for Cabela's Grand Opening in Jan of 08.  SNOWED!!!! 

Got to get moving as want to head to the lake house and not be here till noon as it usually works out.  Truck is load except with cooler of parishables and my clothes.

Hope all have a safe and happy 4th.

[cheapclassics]

Good morning all,

It is cloudy and cool in SE Indiana with temps in the 70s today.  It was one of the most embarassing games I ever participated in last night.  We had 11 players and the other team had 9 and we still lost 3-2.  One of the goals was my fault, and there is no way I should have played the 50 minutes, but we still should have won.  The "saucy wench" and I did have a good meal afterwards at Fazzoli's.  Off work tomorrow for the holiday.  Will have to mow this weekend, but Lucas has a three day weekend as well so he can help.  May run trains this weekend and will watch the IRL race as well.  Things are getting lively on the Tardis so the Beacon will be lit.  I had the regular fare on the dining car for breakfast.  I hope everyone has a good day.

Keep on training,

Mike C. from Indiana

[dwiemer]

Morning all.  Well, the sun is out....again, and we are expecting highs in the upper 90s....again.  Son got some of his gifts this morning.  FIL and his bride are on their way down.  We will head out to a local Mexican place the kids love for lunch.  Then I have to go into work.  Tomorrow, we will celebrate with a family who has 4 kids and our kids get along with them very well, so the house will get trashed then.  With friends and family scattered, we find that we have to have multiple parties.  Oh well.

Watched a little of a movie called "Do No Harm" that is coming out.  Don't bother, it is trash.  Having a intimate knowledge of the case, it is a "documentary" in much the same way "Bowling for Columbine" was a "Documentary".  Some folks had a position they wanted to get out, so they made a movie that they called a documentary so that it would give their position credibility. 

Chief, hopefully, they have caught the wandering wallaby by now.  I am sure that has added to the excitement in the town.  Hopefully, he has not ended up on a dinner table somewhere.

God Bless,

Dennis

Good morning---

We got our usual 30% shower this morning----dumped for 1/2 hr----we're going up to 70% today and tonight then back down to 30% tomorrow. It's going to clear up to a mix of sun/cloud for the weekend---

I go back to work on Monday hence-----I have a long holiday weekend!! YAY!!

Now, back to the basement with me----

Have a good day--

[Sturgeon-Phish]

Good Morning all from overcast Southern Ohio

I am off today and hope to work on the camper and truck, the grandkids are all here so we will see what I get done.

Jim F and Chief - hope & pray your brides are doing well

Pat - prayers for the leg.

Got to go

May God bless

Jim

[sir james I]

Good Morning

Still overcast and going into the 70s. Enough rain overnite to give everything a nice drink. Grannys baking chocolate chip cookies, really good  when they are still warm. I guess I will just see how the day goes from here...S.J.

Breaking news: Rumor has it that the wallaby has been added to the Rosyville registered voter list. Could be the Chief knows more than he is telling.

Good thing it wasn't a cordless drill. He could be half way to China before the battery quit.

Banks - I think the propane cannon to repel deer would work. Only problem - the deer eat close to the house. Could cause dreams of being in the civil war!

Everyone, have a good BBQing holiday!

Wallaby sighted in trailer park near back side of Main Street Park.  PD spotted him.  Wonder if he was trying to move into one of the vacant trailers????  FD came with infrared device that picks up body heat.  No could find.  He is hiding today.

 

GONE!!!

Hey Guys...missed me?

 

Dennis – ALWAYS remember Hackensack , just like 9/11

 

for those I’ve missed in my absence

 

Orlando was great, hot and tiring.  300 miles on a Sportster is not all that it’s cracked up to be, but it was fun and lunch was fantastic!!

 

Happy Canada Day for our Northern friends, those that gave us the NHL and

NEW JERSEY DEVILS HOCKEY!!!!!!

 

Happy 4^th guys....work beckons, check in later

 

 

[jonadel]

Well Rich look at it this way, at least you know it will run for 300 miles and not leave you stranded, and that is a good thing. We had one day on our trip last week that was 490 miles, UFF DA, at the 400 mile mark it became more like work and less like fun. The adult beverages later did help sooth the spirit :) I had google and mapquested our trip and they both said 436 miles, I cannot understand why odometers can't be more accurate, I know it's an industry wide problem with bikes, burns me up. Time for the train room.
