Rat Hole

November 17th, 2003 · 1 Comment

dammit, i already posted all this, but somehow, i lost it….

So yesterday i was “walking” the property with our builder/seller, pricing out our fencing options. At one point, in the back yard, the builder said “yep, looks like you’ve got some wild life”–pointing to a 4 or 5 inch hole in the ground.

uh…what is it..?

‘well i’d say a rat hole, could be bunnies, but i’d put my money on a rat”.

rat hole–priceless, i have never heard that before.

I am going to start using rat hole all the time. “You rat hole” (ala bevis and butthead’s dillhole) “wow this place is as rat hole” (instead of shit hole) oh boy oh boy this will be fun.

Now, i have often wondered where rats hang their rat hats and set up shop. I have seen clips of the documentary about rats in NYC, and all the scenes of million of rats in sewer pipes and shit, but our house is a bit out of the hardcore city, so i wondered where they sleep and shit. I have seen some big ass rats in the alley ways of ballymore. and well i’d like to keep them as far from me as possible.

So the recommended course of action was to 1)close up the hole 2) monitor it for activity 3)if there is activity–bring in the poision–

now maybe it’s the rats of nyhm, or maybe watership down–in fact i’m sorta angry at the whole early 80’s cartoons with animals and morals and subplots and shit. I need to clear out my yard dammit, and suddenly i’m contemplating the holocaust and the evils of animal testing.

So i closed up the hole with some dirt. and stuck in a stick, kinda blair witch style so i know where the hole was. I’ll keep you updated. you ratholes.

    Personally, I think you should try your anti-rat method on your neighbor: bury him in dirt, stick a pole up his ass and monitor for activity. Fat fucking rat bastard.
