It is snake piss I am afraid. I once lived in an area like that but I sold my house for pennies on the dollar just to get rid of it because I hate snakes. I was so happy to get rid of the place. The buyers thought that they were getting an incredible deal. Suckers.
Maybe Mr. Burns is up to his old tricks.
“Since the dawn of time man has yearned to destroy the sun!”
I have recently been deafened by the incessant hooting of owls.
Oh, I see, six months ago you unspeakably fiendish Northerners steal our sun, now we steal it back and you start whinging, eh?
You can dish it out, but you sure can’t take it when the boot is on the other ear, can you?
Does it have to be a Persian cat? Because I have a white cat who’s available for bookings to add atmosphere to Evil Genius moments. He has experience and charges reasonable rates. Have your people call his people (which would be me).
Oh My God!!! I never thought of this. I am so screwed. I work nights. Am I going to be stuck here forever?

We have a white cat we are willing to donate to the investigation.
Shae is not a Persian, nor is she longhair, but she IS white…
She will sit on your lap for a few hours, IF you have kitty treats, and the kitty treats MUST be Pounce tuna flavor Furball Control. She will accept nothing less.
Remember the movie Cats and Dogs? Remember the whole World Domination scheme? Shae saw the movie one night and is actively recruiting the neighborhood cats for her own WD scheme.
She is currently taking computer classes from cadolphin, has her own e-mail address, and if anyone ever e-mails her, she will answer you. She checks her mail several times a day to see if her recruiting efforts are paying off.
Besides, it would be a small treat to me if i could go in the bathroom in the morning and not have the floor covered in kitty pee. Let someone else clean the floor every day, not cadolphin or me. And the store is running out of paper towels and the washer is broken at the moment.
Any takers? We’ll even pay the shipping, IceWolf.
I wonder if Shae could be Shan’s long lost Evil Twin. Not that Shan isn’t Evil himself, but they’re both white and they have similar names (which always occurs in an Evil Twin situation).
Shan’s got an edge, though. He doesn’t pee on the floor, which surely will weigh in during Ice Wolf’s decision process.
I’ll put it to the Boss, Kat. Sounds like a done deal, if we can get past the quarantine regs sometime before March next year. Something here in th’ memo about “The effect is reversed by then, so what the heck …”
What?
*What do you mean, *I shouldn’t have read that bit out …?
Whoops.
Y’know, I’ve been IMing with Neusa in southern Brazil, and she indeed confirms that it’s warm and dry there, and the famous Brazilian flowers are out in their full glory. But, she also says that the astronomers have confirmed that the sunlight-going-south effect has slowed and possibly reversed. (At least, I think that’s what she said. The conversation can be a little hairy at times, even though we both use Esperanto. Different phrasing and cultural referents, you know.)
Anyway, my question: what if the sunlight-going-south effect reverses, the sunlight comes north, and then it reverses again? What if we get some sort of wobble going and it never stops? How will farmers ever know how much light to plan for? Will the plants and animals be able to adapt? What if they can’t–will we have to build vast mobile fields to follow the sun? The infrastructure expenditures alone would dwarf those of the US Interstate Highway system.
BTW, the pagan celebrations went off without a hitch. We’ll see whether the sun really returns.
I don’t know about any of you people, but I think this whole mystery is somehow related to the events in [link=http://us.imdb.com/Title?0298814]The Core[/link].
