about an hour ago the door bell rang; I answered it. A young man (in his 20's) said as I opened the door "Pest control?" I said "we've got it covered, the lady has me on a short leash" he just kinda looked at me blankly then said "so you've got it covered?" I said "yeah."
sometimes (not often) I feel sorry for people who ring my door.

@littlek,
Eh, as usual, I don't answer my door bell. I'm from California, you know, and have lived off and on as a woman alone. Do you know about red lining, you champion of xeriscape, that I've been doing for 30 years? You prince of anti california?

Well, anyway, four cars were shot here on my street this week. They skipped the sheriff car.

@ossobuco,
Osso, if you click on the "quote name", it will take you to the post that the person is referencing. A click on the "Dyslexia" in question reveals that the lol was in reference to the original post.

@Roberta,
Visiting the Dys can be memorable. You know he keeps a rifle by the door -- in case of missionaries?

Hi
pest control. Ancient Chinese and Egyptian cultures are known to have used chemical pest controls[citation needed]. But it was only with the industrialization and mechanization of agriculture in the 18th and 19th century, and the introduction of the insecticides pyrethrum and derris that chemical pest control became widespread. In the 20th century, the discovery of several synthetic insecticides, such as DDT, and herbicides boosted this development. Chemical pest control is still the predominant type of pest control today, although its long-term effects led to a renewed interest in traditional and biological pest control towards the end of the 20th century.

My dog is between these type people and my front door. They do not realize how friendly she is. They just note she is big and doesn't mind barking. Needless to say, we do not get solicitors. Even the mail carrier sits outside and honks. Kids wishing to mow the yard are afraid to pass through the gate. Heh heh. But the meter reader pats her head after doing his job.

well now you all know why I am the prince of anti california; it's all about pest control. my next thread topic will probably be about wind shears, micro-bursts, leaking windows and why I hate california. I may mention that italy has been a successful anarchy for over a 1,000 years. Sally dog really likes Edgar, she wouldn't leave him alone the entire time he was here, very similar to Dante cat and Thomas.
