I will try to think of it whenever I am feeling down :-) Reminds me of when a rat was stuck on our pool ladder...unfortunately not dead but very alive. We had intentions to hit it over the head with a shovel, but couldn't seem to bring ourselves to do this, so instead "the husband" used the shovel to scoop it and hurl it over the back fence (into the woods Michelle, not the neighbors!) and I would swear I heard "EEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeee" fading out until the thunk into the brush.

I believe I advised you to try to pitch it into the neighbor's yard. Then this would have been their problem, not yours. And, yes, my conscience would be as clear as Waterford Crystal. ;) Great pic!

Reminds me of two summers ago, when a crusty old squirrel body fell out of the old tree in our yard. My wife and I scooped it up in a shovel and flung it into the farmer's field behind our house. When the body hit the ground, it exploded into dust particles. We have rarely laughed as hard as we did that day. Hilarious story.
