rats play hide and seek

So it turns out that rats can play hide and seek. And they even celebrate their wins. I wonder if the rats that live on our property would like to play.

I'm going to have to work out how to avoid the skunks and raccoons (and the opossum that might still be hanging around) without being obvious. "Oh, hi, skunk family. Didn't know you came out in the day. Want to, uh, play?"

rand()m quote

Selfish leaders increase risk by placing themselves first. It's a fundamental mistake to assume that what is good for us personally is mutually exclusive to what is good for everyone. That kind of zero-sum game is for cowards, and in the end, we all pay the price for this type of latent, toxic leadership.
