    At one of the old crappy Ohio Turnpike service plazas the sinks are like that. I found a heavy brick outside one time when I was headed in there to take a **** and I remembered the sinks with those stupid knobs you have to hold down, and I brought the brick in with me, (with it hidden in my coat sleeve so people wouldn't think I was going to use it as a weapon to rob the place or something.) and I set it on the counter behind the sinks. When I went to wash my hands, some other guy had gotten the same idea and was using my brick to hold the knobs down. :biggrin_25523:

    Has anybody observed wildlife acting strange lately? I mean birds that fly into your windshield, rabbits that don't run away until you actually touch them, or run slow enough you can actually chase them down and tackle them? Coyotes that don't run away when they see you, deer that just stand there and look at you when you're standing there with a camera, like 10 feet away? That kind of thing.

    I've been noticing LOTS of unusual behavior in wild animals around here. I'm wondering if it's something in the air or maybe they're eating farmers hybrid, mutant crops and that Monsanto crap is poisoning their brains. Nobody would notice if the food supply is dumbing down the human population (other than the 2008 election results) but with wild animals their behavior is pretty easy to spot when they're acting unusual.

    Last week I was outside trimming trees and I'd had WAY too much coffee and was as hyper as a 12 yr old. There was this adult rabbit about 20 feet away. I started walking slowly towards it and was only about 5 feet away when I reached into my pocket for my camera-phone and it ran off but only went about 20 feet and stopped again. I ended up chasing it for 3 laps around the barn and I was actually gaining on it, eventually I dove at it and actually touched it for a second before it got away and ran into my pile of sticks and branches where I couldn't get to it. I'm 32 and overweight, there's NO WAY I should have been able to keep up with a wild rabbit, especially almost catch it too.
