Funny conversation with a "city slicker"...

[the funny farm6615]

there is a creek that runs threw the back border of their property and that is what had flooded. they have this little hill in the center of that property, and that is where they put the house. but when the property was flooded- the hill looks like an island.

they seem like nice people in general, and i offer help and suggestions but they act like they think i am lying to them or something.

I had someone call a snaffle bit a snapple, several times.

The same person was riding with their knees above the knee roll of a hunt saddle, and when I showed them where their leg was supposed to be positioned, they said "Well I guess we were riding western, then!"

Sometimes, I hate dealing with city people. Some city slickers moved in down the road, and were feeding some feral cats. One winter night something killed the 3 cats, and he had a "tracker" over to figure out what killed them, and this "tracker" told him it was two dogs. Meanwhile, we had found two stray dogs that had shown up in our pasture, a Malamute and a Black Lab. The man came over to ask if we had found two dogs. We asked him if they wre his, and he said no, but they killed the cats, one of which was feline HIV positive . He then asked if he could bring the kids over so they would see that there was no kitty killing monster.

His wife brought the kids over later that day. They wre something like three and 5 years old, and the dogs were in the barn. As we opened the door, the three year old found itself nose to nose with the Malamute. The kid's mom stood there. Luckily, both dogs were kid friendly and no one got hurt.

I honestly believe it was coyotes that killed the cats. A dog would have *some* scratches on its face from attacking even one feral cat.
