I had some lovely cascading icicle lights on a tree in our back yard. Squirrels chewed thru every damn one. At $29.99 a set, I'm not replacing them -

I grow artificial plants now. No point in going to war. Green Acres my a$$.

I only sweat the bears who make a rare appearance. Got bear spray.

That was the best laugh of the day!

Those cyber trucks are butt ugly, just like a dumpster!

Raccoons think it’s a dumpster, skunks think it smells like home, dipshits think they’re on “Price Is Right.”

"President-elect Donald J. Trump traveled to SpaceX's most recent Super Heavy rocket launch in Texas on Tuesday and a new guest vehicle was spotted in his motorcade.

In a video posted by Margo Martin, President-elect Trump's deputy director of communications and former White House press assistant, a Tesla Cybertruck stands out within the pack of Chevrolets and Fords that made up the convoy in Boca Chica, Texas near SpaceX's Starship launch pad.

This content is imported from x. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.
When asked about the details on the Cybertruck's role in the motorcade, the United States Secret Service declined to provide specifics to Road & Track.

"For operational security reasons, the Secret Service cannot discuss the specific means, or methods utilized to carry out our protective responsibilities. Our motorcades our comprised of Secret Service and non-agency vehicles. These vehicles are used by security personnel, staff, guests, and other law enforcement partners," a Secret Service spokesperson told R&T."...(more)

Works for my garden.
You just have to remember to put it on everything again after a rain, even a heavy mist. Squirrels won’t get on any of the plants after they’ve licked some off of their paws.
