    I am not a homo phoebe…….if you are or you might not see eye to eye with me on the topic, this might not be anything you want to read so stop now or forever hold your peace!

    Received text from Daughter in Menomonie –

    Daughter: There is a mouse 10’ feet away from me!!!!!!!!!

    My Reply: Just step on it.

    Daughter: I’m freaking out!!!!!! Come to menom ) :

    Reply: Why don’t you guys put some poison in the basement and a trap near the kitchen?

    Daughter: We didn’t see it fir awhile. I thought it just died. I want to set a trap but then what once its dead? I’m not touching it!!! And if we poison it I will have a dead mouse in my house : ( : ( Cassidy (boyfriend) is coming tomorrow I’ll make him do it! And just not sleep until then : ( YUCK!!!

    Reply: Or you could feed it Cheerio’s and make it a pet : ) That would be cool!!!

    Daughter: I googled it and I guess they breed pretty fast. What are the chances that we have more than one?

    Reply: I know you have more than one. Put Poison in the basement!

    Daughter: This might just be the worst thing that has ever happened to me.

    Reply: PLEASE! It’s a frickin’ mouse! Listen to me, put some frickin’ poison in the basement and stop being such a girl…..geeess!

    Daughter: OK I’ll do that dad but won’t it smell when they start dying off in the basement?

    Reply: Nope, the poison dries them out from the inside.

    Daughter: Is it expensive? ….this is always the first question out of a daughters mouth

    Reply: Not a bad price but traps are cheaper. Plus trapping is fun and adds to the excitement of the chase. What good is that bo of yours if he can’t get rid of mice?

    Daughter: Gross…I’m sure he can….LOL

    Reply: Id hope so. If not you know what that means?

    Daughter: No what? …. (I thought I taught her better )

    Reply: He is [censored]!

    Daughter: Are you stereotyping [censored] people? Because of their sexuality they are not able to catch a mouse?

    Reply: If it is a guy…..He!! YES!

    Daughter: OH so just [censored] women and straight people can catch mice! Thanks for clearing that up! I learn something new every day! (I can hear the sarcasm in her voice )

    Reply: I did not say that. Girls [censored] or not spend all morning texting there straight manly fathers on what to do!!! [censored] guys sit on the couch with there feet up not knowing mice can climb. Now you learned something!!!! Love you and have a great day XXX OOO

    Daughter: OMG…..I was on the couch with my feet up, now where do I go? Love you too Dad XXX OOO

    This is just one of many conversations of this sort I get to have with my daughter in the morning thanks to the wonderful world of text messaging

    Text messaging is a wonderful thing!

    I went over my limit and it’s costing me an extra $35.

    Daughters need to learn how to txt in an email.

    If I didn’t think this was true (my experience) I would think you were a comedian!

    Do a second interview with the boy friend if he can’t figure it out!

    I know what your saying Bret, daughters are nice and all but sometimes they call for the most simplistest of things. My daughter called the other morning at 2:30 and woke my wife up. She was freaking out and completely overwhelmed because she seen a cockroach crawl across her kitchen counter. They bombed the whole apt. complex where she lives and this was a stray from some other part of the complex, Jennahs very clean. She wanted to know what she should do in this panicked moment. Her mom calmed her down and told her it would die probably befor morning.

    I seen my daughter the next day and she flagged me down and she wanted me to come over and take out all the sacks, dishwashing items and everything else under the sink just to make sure there wasen’t any more bugs. I thought to myself you got to be kidding, while telling her to do it herself and that I wasen’t going to drive 5 miles across town for one little bug. She drove off and I still don’t know if she got things checked out under her sink, It’s probably clean anyway under her sink the way she keeps house. Shes one of those females that gets the “willies syndrome” and hits nitro in a split second and when it comes to “willies run” shes already left and down the street 2 blocks and look out for anyone whos in her path. Shes still probably overwhelmed by this little bug, what would happen if she did see a mouse, she’d probably call the police dept. or the swat team .

    Ted didn’t get the memo. He’s been using the 4 bags as a pillow.

    Now, if anyone IS out in the Rush River area AND wants some practice on being a REAL man, I’ve got plenty of supply here at the dog kennel, both varieties.

    NOW, what this is REALLY about is that I hear they make PHNOMNENAL BAIT. You put a little swim suit on them and tie the line to the back straps and dangle a cheater hook and let them swim right into the lair.

    Catfish and muskies galore… MUCH better than those slipper things with whiskers… Just let them swim around in circles and YOU watch out for the PETA patrol…

    not necessarily a homophobe, just intolerant and ignorant. A straight dad would have taught his daughter to be a man and handle a mouse on her own.
