  1. Re:If only there were some on Chicago Using Coyotes To Fight Rodents · · Score: 1

    Why didn't they just use cats??

    Because cats just sit around all day on their fat asses, and can't be bothered with doing anything, until they turn up their noses at the can of tuna fish that you opened.

    Some cats. Not my cat. He has no front claws, is a town cat that I Iet roam at night, and drops in my driveway from 1 to 3 mice most nights. He only caught about 3 birds all summer, but he also caught and killed about a half dozen rabbits. They were cottontails, and not full grown but the last couple he caught in September where getting close to full sized. Does he kill things that he doesn't bring back? Who knows, but I think I get to see most of his work. His brother is a farm cat, and regularly catches gophers and brings them to the farm house.

    Mount a microphone at the focal point. Level the dish and see how far out you can pick up a conversation. Cheap, Simple, Fun. Parabolic

    can't you just turn the computer upside down and shake it till the button is visible?

    I tried that, but my screen disappeared.

  6. Re:PC weather tools on The Future of Free Weather Data on the Internet · · Score: 2, Informative

    I use Weather Watcher from http://www.singerscreations.com/. Adware free and Spyware free, the total download is just 1.48Mb and is freeware. I liked it so much I gave him a donation. It is somewhat like Weatherbug without all the bloat and crap. KWeather for KDE would be similiar to Wx Watcher.

  7. Re:ehe on Knoppix v3.4 Hits The Mirrors · · Score: 1

    Pfff! That's nothing. I downloaded it this afternoon, did a Debian HD install from it onto my workstation at work, and did the same at home just now. I just finished booting to take a peek at /. Arrrrggg!
