The Replacement Dishwasher has Arrived!!

The new dishwasher - to replace the one that Ratticus ate - has arrived and is getting installed right now!!

Total sales so far of my EPIC short story - 6!!!

Minus Amazon fees - and only another 994 more copies or so and we'll break even - woo-hoo!!

Our "tasty" washing machine drain hose

Apparently - Ratticus thought this washing machine drain hose made a particularly tasty snack.

The Demise of Sir Ratticus

I thought that instead of posting the image of the final demise of Sir Ratticus - I would simply link to it - just in case - like my wife - there are people that have no desire to see a picture of a dead rat on their screens.

Click on the link below if you dare!!

Trap Deployment

You can see the pest control guy on the left - fishing around in back of the

hollow base of the cabinet with my trusty three-iron. 

Pictures of the Eaten Dishwasher

Our first picture of Ratticus (03/31/11)

Ratticus eating our washing machine drain hose.

This is the first time I got an idea of what we were dealing with.

I linked it instead of posting the picture - in case anyone doesn't want to see a picture of a rat staring them in the face when they come to the webpage.
