Subject: Excuse me Mr. Possum could you please exit the vehicle?
So I woke up this morning at some ridiculous hour because my bathroom was on fire (which has little to no bearing on this story other than to indicate just how scattered I was before I even made it out the front door today.)
After averting the latest crisis and recovering from the inability to breath, I did what any sane person would do and headed to the front porch to get some fresh air and further poison myself with a cigarette. I stepped outside, breathed in the crisp pre morning air, and I was immediately assaulted! I screamed like a little girl, much to my own embarrassment, and ran from a large rat like creature that likely had ideas about eating my leg but thankfully violently wounded my hubbies oversized slipper instead.
After bravely throwing the other slipper at its head while standing on the patio chair and yelling for the dog I watched the animal retreat two feet away to my sons John Deere mini gator. Enter the dog. Dog runs onto porch, gives me the why are you standing in that chair like a sissy look and begins to bark at what is now a very unhappy possum. Possum hisses, dog barks, I throw rocks at possum while pleading with it to please exit the vehicle. Dog gets bored runs off and the possum decides its best option is to do what possums do best and play dead. Well now what?! After a full five minutes the possum had still not moved. Did it have a heart attack? Is it ill? Should I poke it? I threw more rocks. Nothing. Well Mr. Possum if you think I’m coming over there to check on you you’re clearly delusional.
A few minutes later I have located the rake and am using it as a long distance poker. After all I can’t just leave a potentially dangerous animal in my sons favorite toy now can I?. Poke? Nada. I inch closer. Poke? Guess what? Mr. Possum is just fine and ready for another go round of hissing and spitting. I do the only logical thing available to me, throw the rake and flee inside. At this point in my morning I’ve decided I’m going back to bed and the possum can have the tractor and the porch too for that matter. So after taping a note on the door for the kids that reads “please use side door there is another possum on the porch” that’s exactly what I did. This is the third time this week a possum has taken up residence on my porch or under my car.
We honestly don’t live in the middle of nowhere, we have five little acres right off the highway in a big city. But we seem to have an overabundance of wildlife around here. Don’t’ get me wrong, the squirrels are cute, the birds are a lovely addition to any morning and the deer are nice too (when they aren’t leaping out in front of our vehicles). But I’m concerned the possums are going to hurt one of the children. Does anyone know of something, anything that might keep them away?!
I'm seriously beginning to think I should hire a park ranger instead of a gardener this year! lol

Subject: Hooray for custom forms!
I do not have a twitter account I believe the entire affair to be a vile blight on the world!
I will however mention it to some of my friends at the next friends of the Library meeting. There are several there it might appeal too as a lighter writing distraction.
Speaking of lighter writing Mr.Webmaster, did you recieve the article I sent you ok?
And will SOMEONE tell me please how to indent a paragraph on here! It is driving me insane!

Subject: Nudity is likely optional...
It's a matter of wether you go to the computer dressed or undressed after all! Lol
It would make it easier to have game related conversations with just one person and not have to give out your personal messenger Id. As an advocate of Internet safety that alone would be a bonus IMO.

Subject: The return of Hero Quest...ish
Wizard has started producing D&D board games again as you can see here link in Wrath of Ashardalon.
It appears there is a ravenloft edition boardgame as well. One can hope it goes over better than there first attempt.
I cant see myself playing this but the kids might just like it. I know they have a Munchkin board game and they play it ALL the time! Who knows maybe Wizards is on to something.

Topic: Limited edition D&D spellcasting soda!!
Subject: why is this box neccesary...it should auto populate
Dragonfruit! love it!
The soda is actually quite good! And yes it is cane soda.
How sad they don’t ship to Europe. I suppose if you were very determined in acquiring them you could have someone in a country they do ship to purchase and reship them to you.
I ordered some for a game theme party my son is having. FYI They are cheaper if you buy in bulk!

Topic: Why the "newbies" don't stick around
Subject: Agreed
I love it! I will probably be reading audalis (might have spelled that wrong but it's more work on my phone to go check) content for the next year! Very informative , very entertaining site. I'm also closer to your age than some of the others who I've spoken to on here. I enjoy reading and writing as well.
Sadly for many of the younger generations and probably some older ones too that just Isnt enough.
Don't get me wrong I'd love to see more activity and an iPhone app but the lack of these things won't keep me away. My nearly 16 year old on the other hand asked where's the like button (which sparked a who actually emails there friends links anymore type of conversation ) and snubbed his nose at the lack of an iapp and hasn't returned sense. Kids!
