    I saw something like that at the hardware store, but it was too big for the spot I saw the little bugger. These are reusable too and hopefully do the trick.

    I have cats. Small creatures don't live around here anymore.

    I have a cat and a deaf old dog. The mouse was inside a cupboard under the counter where the cat can't get.

    Good luck!  We hold a foreign policy here in our house that I get to repatriate wildlife found in the house.  Including spiders.

    If you're going to release the mice, you have to release them quite a distance (as in at least a mile) from your home, or they'll just return.

    Spiders and ants in the house are shown no mercy. But I can't even step on ants outside anymore. I'm getting soft in my old age.

    David Williams we live near a creek, so they'll be released on the other side of running water with plenty of other houses to get to before they get back to ours.

Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close.

Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.

He lived in a hut built over a dug-out at Squirrel Narrows. Found frozen to death in the 1930s by Kettle Falls pioneer Oliver Knox; Upton was perched lifeless in the snow just a half-mile from his home. Shunning civilization, Upton defined the word hermit. First spotted rowing his crude log raft on Namakan, no one knows how he got there. Upton’s accent implied an English heritage but any personal inquiries brought a stony silence. Some suspected him a man fleeing the law; others saw a bizarre outcast; everyone knew he was peculiar.

Winter demanded shoes but no socks, a cast-off Mackinaw, and a trailing cap made from the leg of old underwear. He was oddly religious, and suspicious of being poisoned. Surviving on snared rabbits and fish, he ofte...

Originally shared by Curt Thompson This is an interesting theory, but I notice the author has to omit one of the most important Heinlein novels to make it work. Time Enough For Love was written in the very early 70s and was a straight (heh) extrapolation of the chaotic and frenetic zeitgeist of that era. http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2012/11/the-joke-is-on-us-the-two-careers-of-robert-a-heinlein/
