Thanks, everyone! Although you all would have laughed seeing me throw that water at the nest and then run to the door screaming for life.
Now that the black and yellow menace has moved on, I can breathe easy. Whew.

Excellent News! Glad you didn't get stung.
I had yellow jackets build a next in my bathroom fan vent and didn't relize it until one day when I steped out of the shower there were about six bees in the bathroom with me! I'm terified of bees, since when they sting me I swell up like a balloon! I made my nephew come over and spray the bees in the bathroom, and then I got the long range spray and sprayed the vent from the outside. You couldn't have paid me enough to crawl up on the roof to throw anything at them. lol [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Vaillant 3.0 from Monday, July 26, 2010 9:35:52 PM)

The End. Now who wants some dead Yellow Jacket grubs? They look like maggots.

WHAT? You mean my neighbor next door lied to me all this time? Damn. Oh, well...
Acolyte. The nest isn't that big (half the size of a fist now that I knocked some of it down), so a bomb isn't necessary. I decided to go with my mom's suggestion of throwing boiling water to it to finish it off. Now that classes are done for the day, I'll give it a go. Wish me luck. The battle is not yet over.

That's what I did with the glue traps in Flora's room, but I can't put traps out in the kitchen because Lucy would be in danger from them too. This makes killing the big fat menace a little more difficult. I would like to know what that miracle chalk was though.

Actually, I heard about this one town in Nevada that plays Hard Rock music on full blast to scare locusts away. You never know. Maybe it will work on that rat, too.

I should have known better though. I bought those silly sonic plug ins. that supposedly drive rodents away. HA!!!! Playing Metal full blast would drive them away faster! What crap people put on the market and then we poor suckers, desperate for any remedy, will buy it!

Yeh Becks, I hope it is over by tonight! I have never felt so intruded upon. Mice don't mean nothing to me. They die with Decon in a day or two, but this bastard is something I have never had to deal with. I hate it.

Ooohhhh... okay. We had our dog outside, so we didn't have to worry about setting those traps. After a couple of days we caught the remaining rats.
As for the chalk...here ya go! Be careful, though. According to the EPA, it's illegal to use and not exactly safe. But if you really want them, just find a bargain store owned by Chinese people...or buy them online.
That's what I did with the glue traps in Flora's room, but I can't put traps out in the kitchen because Lucy would be in danger from them too. This makes killing the big fat menace a little more difficult. I would like to know what that miracle chalk was though.

It's times like these I wish I could have my former dogs. Max, would kill it straight out, and so would Bella. They were both Cattledogs and afraid of nothing. Poor Lucy heard the rat this morning in the kitchen, she stalked, and actually made it take a few tracks back before it disappeared, and when she came back to me I could tell she was afraid. So, Kudos for her being brave in the face of advercity but she was truely scared. Poor kid.

I hope it dies or gets caught soon. It's big, it's loud, and it hisses at times, strangely enough, it makes a noise like a dog shaking off water on occasion. I hate this demon. My dog is afraid of it. I sent Flora to stay with her grandfather until this menace if removed from my home. Just in case I bought an old fashioned heavy broom so I don't have to worry about swinging it full force if I happen to stumble upon it on it's little trips to the kitchen, which it may as well give up on since I don't have a scrape for it to eat! Bastard Rat! I can't wait til he's dead so I can disinfect the entire house! Edited at: Friday, July 23, 2010 6:09:43 PM

Ooohhhh... okay. We had our dog outside, so we didn't have to worry about setting those traps. After a couple of days we caught the remaining rats.
As for the chalk...here ya go! Be careful, though. According to the EPA, it's illegal to use and not exactly safe. But if you really want them, just find a bargain store owned by Chinese people...or buy them online.
That's what I did with the glue traps in Flora's room, but I can't put traps out in the kitchen because Lucy would be in danger from them too. This makes killing the big fat menace a little more difficult. I would like to know what that miracle chalk was though.

For the rats, we also placed glue traps around the microwave and the stove (where there would most likely be crumbs) and added some pieces of actual food with rat poison placed inside of it. Good luck.

Well first off "black metal" is dead and has been for the last 10 years. The only worthy bands in bblack metal are the bands that came out before the year 2000.And only a small selective bands are even worthy at that.Nobody hails them as "evil" except nowaday losers. I remember back in 93' buying a few cds,at least they were doing something different and it wasn't a trend,at that time death metal was the trend and black metal was hidden,you couldn't find hardly anybody who liked this music back then.Nowadays "fuck black metal".
Yeah I get what your saying don't get me wrong,but Iron Maiden on stage just looks "dull". Of course I wouldn't want them to sport spandex lofl! How about black boots,dark black normal fit levi jeans,blacks metal-orianated shirts and black leather jackets ect... it doesn't even have to be spikes or studs,at least "Janic Gers" looks heavy metal,hes just irritating to watch ha! Its just with the look of Bruce with the baggy pants and the beanie Beatie Boy-like cap he wears and with Steve wearing a soccer....(sorry....."football") jersey sometimes it just looks dull and to top it off with the band's "nu" sound they have created with Somewhere In Time all the way up to El Dorado and The Final Frontier track so far.
It all lacks vintage "pure" Iron Maiden. With Angel Of Retribution and songs like Judas Rising,Deal With The Devil,Demonizer,Eulegy,Hellrider,Wheels Of Fire sounds like something that could match up to any tracks off of Screaming For Vengeance or Defenders Of The Faith and even Worth Fighting For sounds something like Desert Plains,like the album or not it sounds like classic Judas Priest and in my opinion is the band's 5th best LP. But Maiden doesn't have 1 album that can even come close to Powerslave or of course anything before it and thats unacceptable for me.
J.D., I'm fine wih everything you said there apart from 'Image means everything', because I'm not sure you meant it as fully as you wrote- what about all the so-called Black Metal bands that wear the spikes and paint and are musically shite, but are still considered 'evil' just for their image? I guess its best to have the image and the music, but surely the music is everything, image is secondary to that.
(Its also a view I disagree with because its an increasing trend in this country for some metalheads to look down on or even abuse others who don't 'wear the uniform' regardless of musical taste, as if the image were the most important thing, and that there can be no variety. If there is no variety in image, then there would probably be less variety in the music. Not to mention its the kind of behaviour that reinforces a negative view of the metal community. I know you would never think or act like that, but it is a view that can be twisted round and taken in a bad way)
I realise that was going off the point and has nothing to do with Maiden, and yes, sometimes I do think Bruce could make more of an effort, he looked cool when I saw them in 08, but at Download in 07 he have just in baggy black and trainers, it did look a tad naff, but looking back over some older pictures of him, he always dressed a bit-- naff. Sure, there were spikes and chains, but also yellow spandex and long socks. In fact, barring around the time of Fear of the Dark, I have never seen pictures of him in full leather. And the rest of the band only seemed to wear the spandex, not the chains etc. I would rather see them dressing the way they do now than in said 80s spandex, (especially now they are all over 50) and the other five guys still have the long hair, they aren't totally un-metal looking.

LOL!
And the beanie rap boy hat that Bruce wears spanks big time. The baggy pants are crappy and shows that Bruce doesn't have as much passion for heavy metal that Rob Halford does or many other "metal" artists for that matter. Look at Dio,he never sported spikes,but he always had a medieval image,mystical with some studs ect...he always looked "metal" while Bruce used to support this image to a point.
Take a look at the band photo in the CD booklet of "A Matter Of Life And Death" as Bruce is wearing blue jeans and a green or grey shirt with some random logo on it,it looks like he was outside mowing the yard,a far cry from an image he used to support with studs and spikes ect.... It just shows me that the band is lazy and are not giving the fans 100%. Thats why I've always hailed Rob Halford,he always looks metal where it counts.
Rob wears normal cloths but not on stage or in CD booklets like Bruce and Maiden does. Don't get me wrong,if Maiden were decked out in full spikes ect...it wouldn't change my opinions of the music because the music is the most important but it makes the listener wonder if Maiden never astrayed away from studs and spikes,black/leather ect...what would thier mind-set and attitude be like all these years? Maybe they would of been making albums like "The Number Of The Beast or Piece Of Mind perhaps? Image means everything in the realm of heavy metal and like thier music,Iron Maiden have again come up short.

What did you expect him to say? That he thinks he's better than Rob? lol. I agree there are things Rob can do that Bruce cant. There are also things Bruce can do that Rob can't so it works both ways. See what I'm saying? Yes Dio is awesome and almost had him tied with Bruce but not quite. .....I don't know, their close.
[HOT ROCKIN' METAL GODDESS] Wednesday, July 21, 2010 6:06:13 PM
Yes, Dio was a MUCH better vocalist and lyricist than Bruce could ever hope to be! Even Bruce admitted that Rob was amazing and could do things HE CAN NOT DO! So, even Bruce admits that he in fact is FAR BEHIND Rob! Believe what you want Brian, but the METAL GOD is THE METAL GOD for a reason and Bruce can't come close!!!
I would say over the years Bruce has been the second best metal vocalist and not far behind rob. And i still don't see a problem with the baggy pants. But to each his own. I think Aces High alone puts Powerslave above AOR.

Actually thinking about it I take that back,I don't think Angel Of Retribution is far better than Powerslave but rather a step ahead of it with Powerslave almost there. The best Iron Maiden albums are Killers and debut Iron Maiden album. I like Paul Di Anno's vocals better than Bruce however I hate Paul's vocals nowadays. I just like the Maiden albums with Di Anno better than I like Bruce. I think Bruce gets to dramatic at times. There is no way that Bruce is close to Rob Halford's vocal talent though and thats not saying that Bruce isn't a good vocalist because he is,but nowhere near The Metal God.

I am partial to Nostradamus, the Ripper era releases I can take or leave.

Yeah I know,I never said that Priest were more consistant at releasing studio albums than Maiden idiot. Whats lame is that it took Maiden 4 long years to release "The Final Frontier" since the 2006 A Matter Of Life And Death album. Just as lame as it will take Priest 4 years from Nostradamus to release this next album.And yeah,Saxon are more consistant at releasing studio albums than both Maiden and Priest.
And yeah I'll shell out $100.00 bucks for Priest's next album if its a killer one,thats more than what you'd do for Maiden....since you like this new Maiden I'll bet you won't even buy one copy to support the band. How about that crappy beanie boy hat and baggy pants that Bruce wears on stage,he looks like a rap artist.
Since 1990 after the release of Final Frontier Maiden will have released 7 studio albums compared to Priest's 4 studio albums since 1990. So now who's more consistant bud???? That's right, Maiden is. End of story. It took them 7 years to release Jugulator. I know it was becaues Rob Halford left but still the numbers don't lie. $100.00 bucks?? Ooooooooo, last of the big spenders!!! lol!

But....... Painkiller destroys anything that Maiden has put out over the past 20 years! I would rather have a band that has not put out as many albums but has put out quality albums, to a band that is constantly putting out more worthless albums.

Yes "quality old school metal is a rare breed" and we should be thankful we still have bands like Maiden & Priest around. Although the albums they are releasing may not be up everyones alley its still good to have these classic metal bands.

I agree Ron. Halford came back in 2003 and the only thing that has been done that is elite is 2005's Angel Of Retribution. Everything else is just not interesting to me. Rising in the east,the new British Steel tour ect...is cool but I'm not going to buy anything untill the new album is released and I'll only buy it if its killer. If it is an excellent cd then I'll buy 5 copies approx. abnout $100.00 bucks I'll spend to support the band. If its another Turbo,Demolition or Nostradamus then I'll save my money and spend it on Saxon HA! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by ron h from Sunday, July 18, 2010 1:22:17 PM)

Consistantly 3 to 4 years apart. They used to released an album every 2 years up till 2000 Brave New World,then it took them 3 years to release Dance Of Death wich is the lamest Maiden album with Bruce,then it took them 3 more years to release A Matter Of Life And Death and then this September when they release The Final Frontier it will be a whoppin' 4 long years since AMOLAD was released in 2006. 4 years to release this new album? Yeah they are consistant alright...just as consistant as Judas Priest and how long it takes them to release an album. And whats up with that lame beanie rap hat Bruce wears on stage anyways? He looks like a 4th member of the Beastie Boys.He used to sport leather and studs and now he sports a beanie hat with baggy pants blah.
This reminds me of one of the things I like about Maiden, they release new albums on a very consistent basis.

I wouldn't say Greatest Hits CDs should be outlawed. Hell, without them, I wouldn't have known that Dio did solo work after having left Black Sabbath. Nah, they have a function to a certain extent. Hey, nobody's forcing anyone to buy it, so there's no reason to get upset about it, really. I'm also waiting for a new, killer album from JP, hopefully before they think about retiring.

Don't think they should be necessarily completely outlawed- I do have 'Greatest hits' CDs for a couple of classic bands where I wasn't sure where to start album wise.
But there should be a limit. Otherwise, I agree, it frustrates the fans. And frankly it is a waste of the label's time to promote stuff most people are not interested in. I suspect Sony are doing it out of a sense of desperation because between illegal downloading and the global economy they aren't seeing massive sales of any kind of music, and it is cheaper to repackage old hits that have made money before, then put the money on a new Priest album that could fly or fail.

Apart from Hellrider being totally hyper? Yes - mustard pots. Seems trivial i know, but after having a crystal pot 'disappear' at xmas, i've now lost my antique Colmans's pot (with silver spoon). I actually use these - am not a collector - but i just seen what they are worth online...pisses me off 'cos all i do is use 'em when i blend my mustard.
Seriously Hellrider - i have no respect for anyone who releases several versions of a CD (remix/remaster/bonus trax etc)...this is why ppl download - not waste money on capitalist f**kers. (Just my opinion).

There's been pressure on me lately to get a newer, fast competition boat, which I've resisted because I can't face selling my beloved Vadja Challenger even though it's getting old. Now my family have suggested that if we can't trace my sister's boat, would I be willing to give it to her and get a new one? Well, I would love to do so, but at the same time its like wishing that the stolen one never gets found, which I definitely don't mean.

Which is as stupid as it was to steal them in the first place- the UK slalom circuit is small enough that if they tried to sell the boats they would be instantly recognised (nearly all good quality ones have custom paint jobs, or at least names and tel numbers marked inside), so God knows where they'll end up. Probably in police storage under months worth of red tape if they are ever traced.
I'm so mad, and upset for my sister too.

They are not going after people claiming true disablity and incompascity beniftis, just pruning some of the free riders out. Still, those will go from one benefit to JSA, or long term unemployed. Labor made an entire younger generation of persons feeling they don't have to work. Your generation not included and I'm sure if your health allowed you would be up for a job. I bet your son works.

VER COOL MAN.well WHEN THEY UNLEASH THIS NEXT NEW ALBUM METAL MONSTER MIGHTY PAAAAAAAAAAAAINKILLLLLLLLLLLLLLER STYLE i can see myself buying everything in sight seriouly.lol.i just get so fuc?en worked up
If they put out a studio album equal in quality as Angel Of Retribution I'll gladly support the band by buying 5 copies,approx.about $100.00 bucks no problem!!! When Angel Of Retribution was released I bought 10 copies and passed them out to friends! But I had more money 5 years ago than I have now(lol!) but yeah,I'll easily buy 5 copies of the album,it would be worth it for me personally.

Nostradamus was released in July 2008 almost 2 years ago,and for the band to strike up a any kind of a tour for the Nostradamus album even if its a short one is almost taking a step backwards.
Same goes for if they don't do a Nostradamus tour and do a 30 year aniversary tour for Screaming For Vengeance in 2011 they would be taking a step backwards,something the band has never done before,the British Steel aniversary was fresh and new and thats all good but to tour another 30 year old album instead of creating something new would be heartbreaking.
They really have us all by the balls here,its like watching a game go into overtime on the edge of your seat pulling for victory and if it doesn't happen its a major letdown. All we can do is what we all obviously know....sit back and fucking "wait". This band means a HELL of alot to myself and millions of other fans and there is nothing we want more than a brand new studio album,but we also have to realize that we might not get one,that is fuckin scarry hellrider. We need to bribe them....lets say if they put out an album as strong as Painkiller we will all buy 2 copies!!!! Somethings got to give hellrider!! lol!
