    This thread went from practical and useful to rather ridiculous in nothing flat.

    *walks off to compose "Possum in the Risers"*

    For the rest of you who don't get that last joke it's a reference to the first song in this video:


    "Gory, gory, gory...what a helluva way to die and he ain't goin' jump no more!"
    Unfortunately in science what you believe is irrelevant.

    If it is a coon - kill it!!! this time of year that is what it probably is, as groundhogs & possums will be hibernating, but if it is any of the 3 KILL IT!!! they will do nothing but cause property damage (least case) and damage your pets(worst case) - If what is in your hangar is not stray / lost cats or dogs KILL THEM !!! Coons, groundhogs, & possums cary rabies & do a terrible amount of property damage, I had to pay well over $1,000 to get my cat taken care of when a Coon tried to take his food & he fought back. And Coons aren't worth eating. Too greasy. Gotta boil them for a day before you can BBQ them.

    He was just a southern possum, looking like a great big rat
    He wandered into the hangar and Wilfred caught him flat
    They stuffed him into a gunny sack, and headed for ramp
    And he ain't gonna jump no more!


    Gory, gory what a helluvaway to die,
    Gory, gory what a helluvaway to fly,
    Gory, gory what a helluvaway to die
    And he ain't gonna jump no more!


    The Champ was sitting idling, and they shoved him through the door
    The throttle was shoved forward, and they took off with a roar
    An "X" was painted on the runway, for the possum 'toward to soar
    And he ain't gonna jump no more!


    Gory, gory etc....

    That's funny as heck. You'd be a fun guy to sit down and chat with!

    Now let's see you do the "A25 Song" now (second song on the video) although the traditional version contains the best verse ever in a song about flying:
    "I fly for a living and not just for fun,
    I'm not very anxious to hack down a Hun,
    And as for deck landings at night in the dark,
    As I told Wings this morning,'B**w that for a lark.'"

    I set up the camera and overnight it caught 11 movements. I plugged the camera into my laptop and it won't transfer the photos.

    I got a TASCO camera. The instructions speak of pushing the SETUP button. No such button exists. Instructions say no driver is needed, yet when plugged in the computer wants a driver called SPCA1528...which I found on the internet, but it still won't work.

    Will have to call the TASCO folks Monday and see if they can help.
