    prayin for your neighbor. The racoons looked healthy from hear. To a degree you can tame them down, the wild ones. Rescue ones can be quite affectionate, but will still bite. they tear the crap out of everything an are attracted to shiny things, though not as much as a packrat. I liked the BSn while pushing bubbles out, it eased the tension of learning. Anyway lookin good bud. keep safe

      Those are the first raccoons I've ever seen here. Only ever seen them up in the mountains, then again, that little patch of desert by my house is quite odd. Everything seems to live there. I've seen Foxes, coyotes, javelina, squirrels, rats, mice, gophers, hawks, eagles, owls, snakes, lizards, and alot more. It's prob only like 40 acres

      Yes sir, I love the wildlife. We used to have 4 dogs. The dad (Australian Shepherd), mom (Heeler), and we kept 2 females out of their litter. Really great dogs, they've all passed away now but I remember I was in the garage prepping a dirt bike for a dunes trip and had the dad(Ozzie) with me and he just took off. I walked out to the street and some younger pothead sounding guys were driving and stopped to tell me my dog took off after a coyote. Luckily when I yelled he came back but that's when I learned how single coyotes will try to lure pets to their pack.

      Thank you, aim prayin for them. What a life altering ordeal to go through. The news just said they were taken to Banner hospital. I'm hoping I was just some smoke inhalation and not burns. My next door neighbor heard that there were 2 other people living there and they came home and saw the fire, so maybe they woke them up and got them out. My roommate said there was tons of people when he drove by, the Sheriff's beat the FD there.

      Lol, I still can't believe there were raccoons here. They just don't live here. I've only ever seen them at higher altitudes in the mountains with pines. I need to stop putting my projects in the line of fire lol.

    Hello, exciting nights you've been having, one for the worst reasons, I'm aware that your houses are more flammable than ours in Portugal because we build in masonry, although we also use wood and other materials, plasterboard and wallmate/roofmate as insulation inside. Seeing wild animals up close is always interesting, even if it's a wild goat trying to hit you like it happened to my daughter today. It's terrible when someone shits on our work... . Speaking of work, Sammy (I think that's how it's spelled) is looking great, congratulations.

      Thank you. Yeah the neighborhood I'm in is cheapy wood frame houses with stucco on the outside. My parents built a brick tri-level home in 1993, then when they built in 2008 it was too expensive.

      Hello, yes around here it is also very expensive to build with masonry, but it seems that it is the only way of building that they know, of course there are others but they are isolated cases and in the countryside and banks do not finance them. A renovated but used T3 apartment built in the 1950s in the area of ​​Lisbon where I lived currently costs €505,000.00 for a country where the minimum monthly salary is €820.00 and the average salary is €1,500.00, it's tough.

      @@MyPaulo1964 Wow, it's getting pretty bad here but that's definitely worse. Here it really depends on where you live. Some places are super cheap, some are super expensive, but all are rising rapidly. Unfortunately decades of greedy US politicians have leveraged money from future generations and now it's catching up to us, plus we have terrible leadership right now that won't stop printing money. Unfortunately when the dollar crashes it will take alot of other currencies with it.

    Whenever it’s inappropriate(😁) I say mine is like an Italian sports car - it’s small but goes fast! 😂 Not that it’s true but it’s fun to see people’s reactions.
    As I’ve cut my hair less than a mm short for 30+ years I say that my manhood is located at another place than on my head. Almost as fun as the first one. 😂

    Metric grade 10 is equal to standard grade 8,...I think I heard that somewhere

      Makes sense. Metric is based on 10. After taking science and physics in school metric makes so much more sense to use.
