Last night, we were sitting on the couch watching football. You know, just chilling. All of a sudden, we heard a loud noise, turned around and there sitting on our air conditioner (outside the window) was this:

WHAT THE FUDGE!
Our house turned into a scene from National Lampoon’s Vacation. I screamed and both boys screamed. Mr. 1969 a.k.a Big Country just calmly looked over and said, “It’s a racoon.” and went back to watching the game.
Who does that? *blank stare*
How the hell does a racoon fall out of the sky onto my air conditioner? *crickets*
What if that thing comes down the chimney or gets in the house? *heart palpitations*
Now I need a BB Gun…………….cause you know I can only deal with squirrels and flying rats New York City pigeons. I left the house early this morning to go run expecting him to jump out of the bushes and attack me. I saw Caddyshack and Harold and Kumar…I know those things are sneaky.
On a positive note, maybe we can capture him and teach him to attack the Wu Tangs? Hmmmm

When I was young we had a bunch of stray cats that kept getting into our garbage can and making a mess. My mother made me a sling shot out of a wire hanger, rubber bands and duct tape and let me sit at my window with a bag of marbles to take care of the problem.

Oh no…the WU Mansion is still there and the entire clan is still wreaking havoc. I swear I try to block out all of the shenanigans.

for all you know, that raccoon could have come from the wu-tangs…I would so be freaked out…if he is that bold to sit there and let you snap a pic, he surely would come into the house…maybe ole coony wanted to watch the game too? and don’t they bite??? no it needs to be gone!
Please write the Big country story, can’t wait to read it!!

Oh I feel for you! Try flashlights and whistles. Brooklyn has changed since you lived here, Ms 1969, cos I had a family of 5 raccoons try and break into my apt in Bed-Stuy at 1am last winter. Never having seen one before I was all excited at the first one, but then freaked out at 5. My roommate called 311 looking for emergency pest control and told them 5 raccoons were trying to get into the apt. Sure they have her on a list as “crazy raccoon lady”..

I know but since he can’t ever seem to catch a rabbit….he may be able to help me with the racoon. FYI, he also hunts ducks!
