Want a pet? Get A Gerbil

Gerbils are rodents that live in the desert. Unlike mice or rats, coming from the kangaroo family, they stand on their hind legs and hop. Gerbils are hyper active but so adorable to have as pets.
If you want a gerbil, follow these pointers.
Gerbils are sold in most pet stores and are inexpensive.
In order to have a gerbil, you will need to get some things for your gerbil in order for the gerbil to survive.
First off, get a ten gallon fish tank with a lid. Then you get wood shavings to cover the floor. Since gerbils are extremely hyper, you will need to get an exercise wheel so they can run on that. Now, get the food. Gerbils feast on pellets and they love sunflower seeds. So put in a good supply of both.
You have to get a water spout for the gerbil for need to drink the water. Ask your friendly pet store sales person to get you one.
Now that you are all done getting the gerbil's needs, take the gerbil or gerbils home. Male gerbils fight, while female gerbils can get along with out fighting.
Put in the wood shavings on the bottom of the fish tank. Then put in the water spout. Before you do this, put in water up to the top of the water spout. Attach it to the tank.
Then put in the exercise wheel. Take a tiny dish for the food and you are all set.
Clean the cage once a week. Best bet, put in a shoe box full of holes on the wood shavings. Put the gerbils in the shoe box. Close the lid so they won't escape. Clean out the tank and put in fresh wood shavings. Do NOT use a sponge with soap on it. The gerbils will die.
Do not put the gerbil's tank by a heater WHICH CAN BE FATAL!. Put the gerbil's tank in a place that is room temperature.
When you are done with the cleaning, put back the water spout, the food dish. Fill  it up with their food. Put in the exercise wheel and finally, the gerbils! Just put the shoe box in the tank, let them out and immediately put the lid on. Feed the gerbil or gerbils once  per day.
Always pick up the gerbil by the base of the tail. And always keep the lid on the tank. If you don't, your gerbils will hop out and you will go on a wild goose chase trying to get them and put them back in the tank.
And you have made some new little friends!

Danger: Rats

Yes indeedy, rats are very dangerous and to most people very scary.
Rats bite and leave several types of diseases on their victim.
But there are ways on how to get rid of them and how not to get rid of them.
Do not use poison to kill rats. What happens is when they die, they will crawl in a crack and smell.
Do not use rat traps. The rat is likely to bite you when you lift it up.
Instead, get an exterminator. They will remove the rats from your home and put them in a cage so your home is rat free.
Just keep your place clean, do not leave food out and empty your garbage on a regular basis.
Hopefully, the rats will never intrude again.

Living In the Ghetto

Once upon a time, I lived in the ghetto on welfare. Prior to that, I worked as a secretary in a small law firm in down town Chicago. I made $2.000 dollars a month.
Then one dark dismal day when you can easily get depressed, my boss summoned me into his office. He closed the door.
He looked at me straight in the eye and said," Lonnie, I'm afraid I am going to have to let you go. There are not enough clients right now. I will give you a note for unemployment." "Don't bother." I said, in a cold tone of voice. "I can get a job with a snap of a finger." So I cleaned out my desk and felt betrayed. I liked my boss.
Job hunting was much harder than I thought it would be. It seemed that nobody wanted to hire me. The economy was dense and I was running amply out of money. Oh why couldn't I have accepted un employment?
I had no choice but to go on welfare.
So one snowy day, I walked into the welfare office. An ugly nasty looking beast sat down at the table in across from me and asked me a bunch of questions such as, "Do you have any cash on hand?" "No." I said. She asked me more questions such as," Do you have any assets?" "No." I replied. "Do you have any stocks or bonds?" "No." I said. When was this going to end? Then, the beast said, "You will get your first check today. Just sit over there, and your name will be called."
I waited and waited. When will my name be called? I thought. I was anxious. Finally, my name was called. I went up to the front window and my check was handed to me. $340 dollars. How was I going to live?
I had to find an apartment that met my means. So I got this hot little dinger in my mind to find an apartment agency and have them find me an apartment for $200.00,
So I found an apartment finding agency in the phone book and I walked into the agency. A handsome man with tanned skin and swimming color blue eyes and curly black hair looked up at me and smiled. "What can I do for you young lady?"
"I'm looking for an apartment for $200.00." I said. "That will be hard to find, but we can work at it." He said, smoothly.
So he drove me around and together, we checked out apartments. But none of them were in my price range. Finally, we went to a run down neighbor hood. The apartment buildings looked derelict. There was a street brawl of men on the corner. Crack heads were smoking crack on the sidewalks. . Gang members were every where. I could hear shootings not to far from me. The streets looked old and dirty. It was the ghetto. And it was utterly disgusting. "Can't you find anything else?" I panicky asked the apartment finding clerk. "This is the only apartment for $200.00." He said, matter of factly............
And from there I suffered. I noticed how the neighborhood looked even more. Broken glass was every where. I saw a man get arrested. Then, he got hand cuffed and got put into a squad car. I saw an abandoned building and people were on the window sill, laughing, cussing and shouting.
Little boys would beat up on me for my money. I got mugged three times at gun point. Was I shocked and scared? You betcha. I kept on hearing store alarm bells. They all had broken glass, Obviously, they were broken into. Street lamps would be knocked over. Shootings would happen every day and night. Winos would sit on the side walks drinking booze out of paper bags. They would always give me cat calls and whistles. This happened every time I walked by them.
 Not only was the neighborhood trash, but my seedy apartment building was just as bad.
There were  a lot of bad tenants living there. People would smoke crack and crystal meth in the hallway. Men would bang on my door at two in the morning asking for money and smokes. Men and women would run up and down the hallway screaming completely stoned on drugs.  Women would get beat up inside and out on the streets. I was one of them. My apartment was infested with roaches. Even though I fogged the apartment often,  my uninvited critters would come back and have a party! And I kept my apartment clean and spotless. Why me? The water pressure was bad. I couldn't get the shampoo out of my hair properly. I had a bad hair day every day.
I finally found a job as a secretary. I moved to a nice neighborhood. I lived in a nice apartment. My ghetto days were gone. Thank God!
