More Wild Critter Stories

One time when the kids were little we were camping in pup tents, me and Frank in one, Teresa and Daphne in the other, just after dark we were trying to get some sleep, and it sounded like there was a bobcat or some kind of mountain lioness screaming near our campsite, we thought it was going to claw into our tents at any moment, so to save my family from certain death, I ran to the car and turned on the headlamps, which were conveniently pointed at the critter, (Logic being that this will cause them to freeze in the glare of the headlights and then vamoose) - But it turned out to be a feral housecat. A park worker said the place was overrun with them, and that's why there were no squirrels.

I wonder if stupid campers were setting out saucers of milk?

I get it, tarrifs, rising cost of labor, insurance, yada yada yada. The total was about $225 - I have bought cars for less than than! Not very good cars, I'm just saying. What really grinds my gears though was the blatant lie at the very bottom of the reciept; Low prices You Can Trust. Every Day. A better tagline might be We know, everything is expensive, it's not just us. Maybe put the oreos back? To which I might reply: I got your creme filling right here, Buddy.
