Do I Win a Prize?

Since I was first to say JJ would sell his Breitling in less than 3 months, do I win a prize?

JJ himself said he's made arrangements to list it in the local buy/sell rag.

Ed and Al... is there a difference between your two prizes? At least with Al's I got to have the bugger carted off in a sealed cage. Can I do the same with JJ?

You tosser, with me you'll have the holiday of a lifetime!!!
Just ask Al and Jacqui what a glorious evening and the next day they had with me. Can you imagine how much more they would have enjoyed if they had extended their stay in Auckland?? (On second thoughts, don't answer that last question....I'm afraid of what the answer might be!!)

If you can get him in it. The skunk is easier to trap, though. JJs are wiley creatures. You have to sneak up on them to trap them. And you need the proper bait. You got try an orange PO, or better yet, a TT Blue Sub.

Well we got rid of the bugger on Sunday night, but not without him spraying a few times. He was mightily pissed (sorry bad pun). The trapper said he was the biggest skunk he's seen in a long, long time.

I just found out insurance doesn't cover skunk damage (de-stinkifying the house, duct cleaning, carpet shampoos, dry cleaning). Feck!
