Hardbopjazz Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 We all know rats were introduced to islands that never had any when ships arrived. Now it appears that it has happened again, but this time on Mars. http://www.upi.com/blog/2013/05/30/Mars-rat-spotted-by-UFO-enthusiast-is-just-a-rock/7151369924607/?spt=fsb&or=ros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son-of-a-Weizen Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Is that the late Senator McCarthy? Could be.......he looks kinda fat ---- fat from Bobby Kennedy 'feeding' all of those suspected communists to him, perhaps?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Most unpleasant experience of my life was when I had to pound a rat to death with a shovel in the garage. Still creeps me out just to think about that, and rats, now. My daughter had a pet rat shortly after that, and it was so cute and stuff, but I could not bring myself to hold it or pet it. I'm rurnt on rats. Glad they're moving to Mars, wish them well. They'll never again see me, nor I them. Win-win, all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uli Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 I once came accross a rat that was dead in the trap for about maybe 3 or 4 days. I will never forget the smell of a dead rat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve(thelil) Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 A friend and I once got off a bus late at night at the wrong stop in Chicago. We ended up walking next to a small stream or river or whatever and there was something swimming that looked large glowing in the moonlight. We thought it looked graceful and pretty until we realized it was a very large rat.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZryWKvsRgY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7/4 Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 33rd and 7th. I'd expect to see a Deadhead still standing there looking for someone to give him a ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve(thelil) Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 I've seen this inflated rat at different times as several locations in NYC. It's used to protest something; maybe vermi? I forget. It might have been a landlord whose building had an asbestos problem. Maybe it's versatile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejp626 Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 They put it up when there are problems between the union and management leading to a lock-out. Seems to be particularly prevalent in front of hotels. Not sure it has the desired impact anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alankin Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 I've seen the inflatable rat used in Philadelphia to protest the use of non-union labor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve(thelil) Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 I think ejp 626 makes a good point. Once you've seen the giant inflatable rat a couple of times you don't even think about what they're trying to say anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
