All is right and peace falls over the land......
« on: April 27, 2008, 08:58:44 AM »
....and water.
Spring has came and with it the evil beings from beyond descended upon this far land. (My cove)
They seem to come this time of the year. Their evilness blossoms this time of year along with the flowers.
They appear as if magic from the void. But I am ready...always ready. Watchful over the empire.
Ever watchful and diligent in anticipation of the attack from beyond I spotted 3 then 4 of the enemy cruising the area. I suspected enemy scouts probing the perimeter.
I donned my battle gear, ( A Harley T and sweats), laid in supplies (Iced tea and smokes), took inventory of of ammo (450 rounds of .177 Precision Max.)
I took up a  position of advantage over their evilness ( A lawn chair).
I was ready to do battle.
The first always seems to be the hardest. I believe it has to do with the anticipation and giddiness of first contact.
In came the first creature from the abyss.
Plink.....plink.......SPLAT. The first falls to my weapon.
Plink.....SPLAT. Head shot......the same as if dealing with Zombies.
I was in the groove now. Blood thirsty and pumped for battle.
SPLAT!!!!!!! Number 3 takes it`s place in history along with many before him. The evilness never seems to stop.
The last of the scouts was more cautious now. Biding it`s time and planning I`m sure. I suspected I was dealing with a being of higher rank, intelligence and experience.
I would not be deterred nor swayed. I stood my ground......well actually sat my ground.
I taunted and dared.
He fell for it and in he came...full steam. PLINK.............I overshot.
Quick reload and SPLAT.
I waited and watched, but nothing. No more dared to enter the killing field.
I will be watching....waiting. I am ready. They are frightened and awed by their enemy I`m sure.
The small empire is safe again. Women smiled and children marveled at their protector.
I`m sure there will be a gathering with much food and drink in celebration.
I AM LEGEND!




You guessed it.------------> BOOM.....good snake.
(or in this case, more like PHoooot....good snake)

;)

The same here if and when the snakes get on land. I just have to be crafty and beat them to the punch while the invaders are still in the water.
I like the cats OK but I can`t let them have all the fun.

Personally I dont mind snakes - prefer to leave em to their business - unless they are in the living area's near my father in laws (at which time, they become fair game..).

Each to their own tho,

Nice write up Jackal,

Does anyone have a good method for moles? I love my 'mole-skewer-3000', but they are now wise to the 'multi-pronged purveyor of death', and the mole-pellet bait/poison doesn't seem terribly effective. I thinking about getting a big spiky-drum-shaped affair and dragging it behind the car....

Have you tried the RODENATOR? They are an awesome bit of kit, I'd get one but there are no moles here :(

I was thinking how this kind of shooting is for under-endowed guys with no sense of sport.  YMMV   :aok

Think it depends on where the snakes are Steve, as I said, if they were any where near my Father in Laws living area (read yard), I'd have no problem with killing them (he lives in the desert with rattlers etc around). However, I'd not go out of my way to hunt em - way too lazy for me to do that....lol...

That`s just because you are in the under-endowed crowd and know of no other way to think.
