But we're not allowed to shoot congresscritters....

Certain parts of the US, rattlers are endangered and therefore can't be shot any more than congresscritters.

Well ... when I can't shoot something, I find I can usually throw rocks at it. Nothing like a good bean in the head with a medium sized rock to show you the voters are getting wise.

Your congresscritters are endangered? I thought they were supposed to be breeding successfully. Has someone set up a charity to preserve the congresscritter?

No no. Congresscritters are all too common and annoying. You just can't shoot them because, technically, they are human. Timber rattlers in Wisconsin are endangered and can't be shot because of that.

No ... because we'd rather they NOT breed. At least (1) not with eachother, (2) not with anyone under the age of 21, (3) not with any of the Congressional pages (regardless of gender), and (4) not with anyone I happen to know or like.

Yeah .... but it's only a technicality. I think it has to be during the season or something.

Congresscritters are avid readers, though... at least they're always turning pages.

I meant preserve as in formaldehyde. Not that they need to know it when they enter the "sanctuary".

Unfortunately they tend to leave the pages soiled. Perhaps they should wash their hands more often - nah, wouldn't make any difference.

Another way of getting a chalkboard that fridge magnets will stick to would be to paint a thin sheet of ferrous metal with blackboard paint and screw it to the door.

Huh? What? Oh! Roit!

Not enough Abilify in the world, unfortunately.

$250, please. You can pay the laddy at the secret entrance to the escape tunnel that NekoChan adamantly refuses to use.
