squirrel question two

[schpahky.livejournal.com]

Edited to add: We found a handyman to open the hole and two little squirrels popped out! Real legit pest control is coming Friday to do any trapping and disinfecting and plugging. The saga ends there we hope!

you all for your pest control recommendations the other day. Our landlord has someone coming on Friday. We have one somewhat urgent question.

The last handyman trapped one squirrel in the hole when he blocked it off. It has been two days and now the squirrel's activity sounds weak. If it dies, we will have rotting-squirrel stench in the house for weeks. The landlord seems not to understand the magnitude of the stench issue among other things.

We are looking for someone who can come out with a three-story ladder and open the hole. Then the squirrel can get out and the actual pest control people will do it up right on Friday. Anyone? Any suggestions for someone who may be able to do this today? We are getting desperate.

Thanks!

Leather scraps?

[purgatori84.livejournal.com]

I'm looking to start playing around with leather, and was wondering if anyone knew of anywhere to get a heap of leather scraps locally (or at least within the Boston metro area). I know I can get old leather goods at goodwill, but I'd prefer to have a little more variety in color and thickness than I could get with one old jacket. Free or cheap is definitely a plus.

Thanks!

Blank CD from HONK! band Young Fellaz?

Did anybody else get a CD from "Young Fellaz Brass Band"? I bought one and it turned out to be blank, so I'm wondering if I could copy someone else's.
