Re: What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?
A squirrel broke into my home about 2 weeks ago. My dad left the kitchen window open a little too far, which probably wouldn't had been a problem if they didn't feed the guy on that windowsill. Anyways I guess he got curious and in the process of coming in knocked the window closed. He was pretty easy to get out though.

Re: What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?
My parents have had issues with bird feeders being less than the 'squirrel proof' they advertise. They have one that has a pole in the ground, then a downward umbrella a bit like a dog's cone of shame on it. The squirrels would still manage to climb the skinny pole and reach out and get around it. My father then greased up the pole. I think that finally worked.

Oh I was walking by.

50 cents for Shining Force is ridiculous. You should have sold it on Ebay. I don't care how much you wanted Kirby, that was just dumb.garrett123 wrote:it was the first one, it only sells for $20 around here

You could've made substantially more money on that game, even selling it locally yourself. Can't grasp why you'd sell it for .50 if you knew it sold for $20. Sure it can be a bit of a bother to sell something, but still.
