On the topic of critters and people using slugs in their windowsills or squirrels in their chimneys as meteorlogical predictors, I can tell you that last summer there were actual dogs being taken for walks by their owners and we got four hurricanes. Also, I saw a puddy cat at somebody's house. Plus, on an Animal Planet show, they were showing monkeys. What does it mean? I don't know.

Also, this one time, at band camp ...

Alright everyone...whether or not you agree with animals being able to foretell the weather, let's respect everyone's opinions here and not lash out at others? I'm not using the above post as an example, but am using it to take care of the others below.

We are pretty lienient with what we allow here, but we don't allow attacks on other posters. As LI Phil says, no cussin' & no fightin' allowed! Thanks! --Clark
