Symon: "I solved our rat/mice problem by getting a company cat. We even claimed the VAT back on its food."

I know a kitty cat that likes to pee sideways on walls to mark territory.

Kitty cat decides to mark the server rack... BZZZT... just don't whizz, please don't whizz, on the electric fence... BBBBBZZZZZZZTTTTTT... (sounds of cat being electrocuted as the server racks of the company go down)

Re: It's all about the blinky lights

Actually the solution is way easier than armed guards.

Get some popcorn, toss it on the floor around mice traps. On the mouse trap, glue some hard candy to the trigger pad. The mice eat the popcorn and go straight for the candy.

Don't want all that mess? There is an even cheaper & simpler solution.

OATS + Plaster of Paris (or powdered drywall paste or cement powder).

Take your bag of oats, mix with powder-to-rock at a 50% ratio. Place in an open, dry location.

Mice eat the oats, gobble up the powder-to-rock dust, their guts turn into concrete, they usually die less then 10 feet from the bait location. Just add more oats and mix when the oats run low. 100% environmentally friendly, inexpensive, reusable, does not poison predator animals.

Google bows to inevitable, stops forcing Google+ logins on YouTubers

GOOGLE+ was forced upon us, I have taken those chains and thrown them away

Good riddance GOOGLE+. You forced yourself upon me like rapist. I hated you and wanted you dead. I began to intensely hate GOOGLE after GOOGLE+ was a mandatory requirement for YOUTUBE commenting. Then GOOGLE decided to force me to add in all of my email accounts to GOOGLE+. Then GOOGLE wanted me to share everything with a world of mostly strangers.

GOOGLE is good at search. GOOGLE is grossly incompetent in morality, social networking, and humility. I find FACEBOOK to be a Jewish MOSSAD spy network for perverts and idiots, and I don't want GOOGLE+ either.
