Thanks for clearing that up Dates. It seems to be Brit slang
with a number of possible meanings, none of them complimentary.

Well rabies is not a big problem around here, so there is little risk
there. Then factor in the probability of being attacked by a coyote is
minimal and I would still rather encounter a coyote than a loose dog.

C&P again.

What *is* your problem?

A woman called Mitchell gets mauled by a coyote. I post a reference to a
woman called Mitchell, quoting the opening lines of her famous song
called Coyote.

And you miss the ref by a country mile. To be fair, you're not the only
one, although Clarke says the song isn't widely known in Leftpondia[1].

And she's even Canadian.

But you see a chance to snipe. Even *after* it's been explained.
And then get all snarly when parody, which you seem fond of, is nicely
demonstrated.

What a nasty inadequate little mammal you can be. I know it's not your
default state, though.


[1] More a case of "I've not heard of it", I fear.

With all due respect, yes! Coyotes are not the only vicious predators in
and around the area. I am armed and 'exercise situational awareness'.

Perhaps. Please elaborate. The only reason I can see that one would not be
armed is that there is no danger. Is there absolutely no danger of predator
attack in the area? No viscious dogs? No criminals?

Actually all I did was point out you are an ankle biter, after you
were nipping at the ankles of the OP. It was an honest and accurate
assessment.

You responded with some kind of a disjointed unrelated story, to which
I replied "What and utter Tosspot" or something like that. You seem to
have assumed I was talking about you. Strange you would jump to that
conclusion.
