Guest guest Posted September 20, 2002 Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 Heidi, Thanks for the great laugh-haha! Sorry but I couldn't help it- the way you described this chipmunk from Jurrassic Park is too funny! It reminded me of the hamster from the nutty professor that is enlarged to 100x his size and is terrorizing the conference! Glad its all over now and you can get some sleep !

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2002 Report Share Posted September 21, 2002 oh my lord..you crack me up..i hope that chip and dale don't have the rescue rangers with them...kid cartoon!!! lol glad to hear you got rid of it tho..i've been thinking about it all day brenda Re: O.T. Chipmunk UPDATE - He is Gone!! I got the chipmunk. It must have been quite hungry because it was only 20 minutes after I set the trap, and he was caught. Of course, that didn't end the story for me. It was desperately trying to get out, pushing on the door, rattling the cage. It was like a monster or that dinosaur in Jurassic Park, you know the one in the beginning that pulled the guy in and ate him. So I didn`t even want to pick the cage up, I was afraid that if it spooked me that I would drop the cage and "Chip" would get out. Could I be a BIGGER BABY?! Thank goodness my neighbor was home for lunch so I asked him to take it out of the house for me. I set the trap again and put it back in the basement. I think that was the only one, but who knows maybe "Dale" is down there too. LOLthanksHeidi – a drama queen> > Okay ladies, here is my problem. Tuesday I saw a chipmunk in the > > dining room.
