Been thinking of useing a littlt electricity

I am old and spongy of mind, so I don't remember if I posted this here or not.
A guy I used to work around the mines with had a neighbors Black&Tan that would get in his garbage and spread it all over his front porch.
He took a 20 foot extension cord and cut the female end of it off.He peeled back the wires and stripped em down a little.He then bridged the gap between the two wires with a piece of thick cut bacon.
That night when Mr. B&T showed up,my friend watched him scrounging around the front porch thru a parted curtain.
Finally, the dawg started chewing on the bacon and my friend plugged him into the socket.What happened next even scared my friend.If you have ever seen a full grown Black&Tan,you know they are large dawgs.
Ole Sparky was throwing such a fit on the porch,trash cans flying,chairs and tables falling over.All to the cacaphony of screamin' dawg from the gates 'o' Hell. Eeker
I had to go and see the damage after hearing the story at work the following day.My friend was right.The porch looked like an airplane had crashed into it.Piss,poop and I guess earwax was smeared everywhere.Trash and empty beer bottles all over.
Then I saw something that made me wish I could have seen this show live.
There were claw marks up some of the walls almost to the ceiling. thumb
The dawg got away but never did go back up onto that porch.
I might get me an extension cord and a Turkey leg and put it out for my Brudder-In-Law.

5 racoons at once would be Oscar worthy ,derf.
Ya might want to split it up to two or three leads. Don't want the breaker to kick before the fun is over. Frowner
I believe that the critters invited to this form of Turbo Flossing can't open there jaws to expel the bait.
Therefore I suggest a three lead wire and the use of a reduced voltage starter box.
After the 110 volt hook is set, ya can 'Kick it up a notch'to 220 volt by clicking the secondary. This is usually done automaticly, but where is the fun in that? shame
At 110 volts, a couple/three of racoons would dance around like them there Irish River Dancers.Dallas Cowgirl precision.
Press the 220 Nitrous button and they would flush like a covey of large noisy quail. Smiler
Ya might wanna stand back aways. Eeker

jpb--do you have to explain to your wife what you are laughing at? Hard to do sometimes, and often I get that "you're sick" look.

Well, as expected. Cat shit on the shop floor this morning. And the trap is out on loan. Frowner Can't figure out why the cat craps by the front door? No way out in the area. It comes in at the back of the building and goes and craps in the middle of the floor. Always at the same spot. You don't have to see it. The smell tells you ahead of time! Must be the grease from the Hong Kong Restaurant garbage can. That would give anybody the shits! I think I'll set the trap in the crap area at night. Maybe a little antifreeze is in order but I might not find the cat. Rather catch it in the trap and then the fun will start!! Wink
