Leather is awesome.


too bad I'm too poor to get a jacket.

That's cool.  I want bears on my back porch now.
*Looks at dorm room.*
*Realises he has no porch.*
*Realises there are no black bears living on the UBC campus.*

The closest thing I get to bears is every damn cat in the neighborhood defecating on my lawn/dad's truck/garage/porch/sidewalk.

Oh, that's lovely, KT.  I'm so glad you shared that.

*Goes back to thinking about how cool bears are.*

*Suddenly starts thinking about how, unlike the rest of the poor schmucks in this dorm, he doesn't have to go to a single class for another week yet.  Laughs Nelson-like laugh.*

Especially when you have to clean it up!

We haven't had very many interesting animals on our back porch, sheep, some big weird waterbirds, racehorse goannas, snakes and other little reptiles, but never anything really big .

Not that we have any really big and/or dangerous animals in Australia...

Heh, you sounded quite a bit distressed on that first post of yours, Shrike.

So Shrike has survived a Bear encounter and revealed he has no pants. Disturbing.

Well, all I get here are foxes, Deer, rabbits...

I've heard far worse stories from our mighty Admin Shrike thou,......far far worse.

round here we get lots and lots of dear. usually whole families in our back yard. our vegetable garden never survives.

[CP5670]

Lots of deer around here too; I think I am in the same general area as Carl. And of course lots of spiders.

Actually, I don't have any.  

I have exactly two sets of clothes, which I have been alternating between for the last ten months or so.

moo.

we've got a cow at school. She teaches biology.

I used to have a dog that roamed around the campus, earning three nicknames: Cow dog, because it had tites as big as it's mouth, Vampire dog, because it had two large bottom molars sticking out the front of it's mouth, and Demon dog, because the two above.

I also had one day, an entire swarm appeared around the porch of my condo. The next day, they were gone. It turns out that they had made a home INSIDE the porch. Now, I don't mean under, as I was over three stories up, no, I mean IN. So, I had an entire bee swarm inside my porch on the top floor, and an entire bee swarm inside my roof on the bottom floor (the porch doubled as a roof). So, me and my friend decided to go outside armed with soap ballons and a hose and soap. We sprayed them for about 2 hours, killing hundreds of them. I went down with my friend to check on them, but they had the last laugh. One of them got me on the foot, and I was yelling:
"GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF!" so loud that they could hear me those three stories up.
We tried to later plug all the holes with that expanding foam-in-a-can stuff, but it didn't work, and I forgot what happened to them.

Hmm.  Well, there you go.  I didn't think they be living in town.  But then again, Port Moody isn't quite the same as the intersection of Broadway and Commercial.

At least you arent stuck way the hell out in Langley....
