Try to imagene something 30 feet tall, 38 feet wide and weighing about 11 tons coming at you at 240 miles per hour.

(Just to see it from their perspective)

they feel as though it is what they were born to do. When they sacrafice themselves to the human kind, they will be taken to a place all racoons vast for. Endless supply of trees and shiny objects, where dogs are thier slaves, and they are not called "coons".

A racoon fell out of a tree and landed on my brother's roof last year. Thought that was pretty interesting. -Mat-

I got a letter from one once. It was some kind of complaint about the way I put my trashcan lid on. I'm can't say for sure it was written by a racoon but I have no evidence to the contrary.

(I didn't respond because I know racoons can't read)

this made me think of the movie "the great outdoors"
the coons are in the garbage, and one says.. "hey, don't eat that. you know what those things are made of?"


ps: i thought you said you couldn't read? lol

speaking of racoons.....

If you have them getting in your garbage cans try this:

Sprinkle liberal amounts of cayenne pepper on top of the garbage, then just set the top on, so its easy to get into
