I've never had mice before, but a few days ago two or three decided to come live in the house. I put out those sticky traps, caught two, and they looked so pathetic all glued down and squeaking and trying to pull free I took the outside, pulled them free, held them up and told them, "If you come back, next time I WILL kill you" and set them free. I doubt they understand English, though.

They'll be back with 100,000 relatives. Good work.
"The United States today is like a cruise ship on the Niagara River upstream of the most spectacular falls in North America. A few people on board have begun to pick up a slight hiss in the background, to observe a faint haze of mist in the air or on their glasses, to note that the river current seems to be running slightly faster. But no one yet seems to have realized that it is almost too late to head for shore." -- Historian and author Chalmers Johnson"

You're supposed to stomp them while they're helpless.
You'll learn soon enough.

Why didnt the pug catch them? It's a predator, stalking and catching is what it's made for.
Might as well have a gold fish instead.

Once you go armadillo, you never go back.

You are mistaking the pug for an actual dog.

My son's girl friend has a long hair chihuahua. Cutest thing. Anyway, it lifts its leg so high it gets inverted and pees on itself. When he comes inside I always take an old sock and wipe his chest off just in case before I pick him up.

I order you to nail your feet to the ceiling.
