I was setting up some more mouse traps in the garage, a little bit ago. As I set the first one down and moved to rise and turn away, I heard a snap.

I thought I must have jostled it or not set it right, and turned back to fix it.

Nope. A mouse had run straight into it.

@AskTheDevil I need about 400 mouse traps of one sort or another.

@poemblaze I've laid out 20. I do not enjoy the round of checking for bodies.

Any time I get myself worked up and think it's time to hoist the jolly roger or collect heads, I remember that I get all choked up if I kill a mouse.

@AskTheDevil Do you remember the movies "Willard" and "Ben"? They make me more willing to see it through to the end.

@poemblaze Yes! I love those movies! I Was very angry when Willard betrayed his rat friends and I thought he got what he deserved.

He didn't really care about them, he just wanted to exploit them.

@AskTheDevil It's been so long since I've seen them I don't remember the whole plot, but I do remember swarms of rats. And I do remember Willard being able to direct them.
