Oh man, I don't remember ever hearing POP's story and of course have never heard Jeff's.

They both brought tears to my eyes I am UNashamed to say. VERY nice, touching stories that are more than Just stories.

Thanks Guys, for the boost.

I've said it before, but for the new guys here it is again, the condensed version.

One summer we had a VERY bad Skunk problem in our little two block area. I killed a total of I think 9 skunks that year, summer into fall and 1 in early winter. It might have been 11 total, I don't remember. Anyway I used an RWS Diana model 45 .177 pellet rifle. One shot to the head and no more problem. Longest shot I made was about 20-25 yards.

Now you know about the SKUNKHUNTER <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Eleven Skunks... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

Sounds like a fitting name alright! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I am big fan of the science fiction genre. I figured there are too many Trekkies and Star Wars fans out there, so I conjured up a show I used to watch as a kid during the early to mid 1980's, which was Doctor Who, with Tom Baker in the role of the Doctor. The Doctor belonged to alien race known as the Timelords, since they were not limited by space and time. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Awesome stories here

PoP- I just about jumped out of my chair reading your story. Absolutely beautiful! That's one of those things that you read in Reader's Digest that makes you feel good inside. Sounds like your Mom was a wonderful woman, even after she left her body to join her God!

Mine... well... The original Nickname came from a weekend I spent at my best friends house when I was alot younger. His Grandmother made the most amazing Chili, loaded with jalepenos and cayanne pepper, and she seasoned it with ground Habenaro... I ate a lot of it that evening.

The rest of the story is more or less self explanatory.

I changed it to El Cacafuego when I started browsing forums that wouldn't allow me to use my original nic. Still find the occasional handle monitor that won't let me get away with this one either.

And Yeah we DID have a bad problem. I got 4 one night on the way to work, Momma and 3 younger ones. The were getting into trash, spraying peoples houses and animals and generally being pests. Oh I only had one to spray, slightly. Only lasted for a couple minutes.

well, I'm a man, and almost everything I do I do with unnecessary force/effort, so I'm MrOverkill.

All you other guys have much better stories than I do.

Well...sitting at the computer one night around midnight after putting four screaming hellions to bed, it was how I felt. 'Course, these days, it's about all I feel <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
