    I have explored that avenue with the farking groundhogs -- but I am not a great shot and/or they're surprisingly maneuverable. ;)

    I did bludgeon one into the next world with a shovel last summer, though -- not especially proud of that, but so be it.

    Hmmm, I had them all around the house when I lived in Northern Virginia. We loved 'em but didn't have any pavers, admitted. I guess YMMV. I always thought they were cute little things.

    They turn yards into models of Swiss cheese.

    They love loose stonework (e.g., dry stone walls -- which are legion in New England).

    I hates 'em to pieces. Little blighters.

    Cats love chipmunks tonyb.

    Tony M, I have several feral cats that I feed in an area of my garage. This morning one of the cats left a dead mole for me at the edge of the old piece of carpet where the food dishes are.

    tonyb, I see the feral cats in the early morning just waiting for the chipmunks to appear. The cats like to roll over the entrances to the tunnels.

    Mark, I grew up on 50 acres of land west of Atlanta. As a kid, I did hunt some. Once I killed my first rabbit, I gave up hunting I felt so bad.

    Tom, you sound like me, now. I have learned to live with the wildlife and try to enjoy all. I can't remember if I told you at Joe Coulson's meet, my BlueBirdMusic is derived from my love of bluebirds that I developed as a kid from my father.

    We had -- and this is a long story, for some other day -- a cat that was went blind. When it was all said and done, he had no eyes. :(

    Even in his eyeless state, he caught (at least) two mice in our house, and one chipmunk in our garage. :)

    This is a seminal lesson in natural selection. B)

    Awake or asleep, he looked the same :p

    He also had profound congenital heart defects, as it turned out. Despite a really tough life, he was an extremely sweet kitteh.

    Looks like a Revox A77 MK I way back there, probably used for recording off of the mixing board. Or taped special effects?

    Thanks!

    Yeah, better (bigger) than any I could find of the actual back cover image -- plus it has the band in it :) The actual back cover photo has -- and rightly so -- the band's roadies in the picture :)

    The photo was styled after the popular photos of military aircraft with their arrays of weaponry/ammunition -- or so I read on the internet.

    This kind of thing.

    Best thing about the b&w photo -- my attention was drawn to that ReVox A77 tape deck, dead centre! ;)

    PS -- looks like maybe some sort of hifi (as opposed to MI) amp underneath the ReVox(???).

    I don't recall seeing one with five knobs on the front -- but, that said, I am loath not to trust your judgment! ;)

    Heh, went to google images and found this :p
