So yeah on the old forum I told the story of how we had a pet possum named scooter at our house. Unfortunately or not he died lol. Well the other night our screen had fell out of our kitchen window due to opening it and didnt think much of it. About 30 min later i find a possum hanging out in our kitchen sink. Rushed to get the broom and scared him back out. Well now he hangs out on the porch waiting for cat food like the previous possum and now this one is named Rocket! You know, they say possums are relatively safe. I mean, they'll maul you if they're freaked out or scared but I don't think they're a common carrier of rabies like their reputation suggests. They're just really ugly haha. So far nothing strange on my end tonight. It's still an hour till midnight but I just saw an old man jogging down the road.

This is kind of bizarre and sounds sort of silly to be typing out but here it goes.
I was hanging out with @digger this evening and was going to load up some Sega carts for her to take home. It's been pouring the rain all evening so I reached for a thicker sort of bag just so they could be transported safely. I reached for an old back pack I had that I was just keeping for a throw away situation because the strap had been frayed on it. When I pulled it out somehow the strap was completely intact as if it had never been torn.
I remember getting this thing at a yard sale for like a quarter and then being super annoyed because I discovered the strap was frayed and no longer attached to the backpack after I had already driven away from the yardsale. I just thought, oh well, it was just a quarter. I very much remember this because I tried to use it a few times while traveling and would sometimes drop it when I forgot the strap wasn't attached.
Guys! Is my back pack haunted? Oh well, not my problem now. Good luck @digger!

You buttmunch! Ha ha. I guess I shouldn't say that, you did hook me up with some sweet games. It seems to be a solid bag/strap, so we'll see. I'm sleeping with it right across from me in my room, so I guess I'll find out at some point!

This is what's going on at my place tonight. Yup, watching a slug eat cat food...

How exactly does it manage that? You should take some video!

The best way I can describe it - you know how a frog looks while its croaking? It puffs out? It's doing that. Over and over and over. I think he's basically licking the salt off the pieces I guess. He does it for a few minutes then moves on to the next piece.

I remember kids in my neighborhood that used to collect them just to poor salt on them. I think slugs are disgusting personally but it always made me cry whenever I was unfortunately around while someone was doing that.

It's almost 11pm and a Goose just ran through my back yard squawking loud as hell. My dog doesn't react at all. Insanity.
