How To Pound Sand Down a Rathole

[Robert Crisman]

1. Go get a hammer: claw hammer, ball peen, doesn't matter.

2. No, wait--first, go to the beach and bring back some sand; take a pail with you.

3. Find where the rats have gnawed through one of your walls.

4. Take out the wall for access into the rathole.

5. Go buy a shovel and dig, so the hole's going down instead of straight back toward the wiring.

6. Pour the sand down the hole that you've dug, then pick up the hammer and pound; have a video made so we can all see how it's done...

So, Robert, here's the easy question.  Who's the rat?

@Grey: You're asking the tough questions now...

Makes me wonder about the rat.  He must be really big, or threatening in some other important way.  Maybe it is just fun to pound sand....?

This sounds like something out of the New Yorker.

You never cease to amaze. Truly, you could turn the instructions on a pill bottle into a prize-winning short story.
