Then, I tried this brand-new shelfpaper called "Nobatinthebelfry Milady" ! Works great, and there's that fresh springtime scent...mmmmm.

4. use a tennis racket, or just open a window/door
and they will fly out.
That does not work in the daytime though, because bats will not fly in the light - it hurts their eyes.
Are you sure they are bats, or are they flying squirrels?

6. Thank you. But, this is just a silly copycat - and a very bad
silly copy cat thread at that, apparently. :o

12. you think I did not know that?
What could be sillier than a serious answer to a silly copycat?
Now I know how you really feel about me. If you respected me, you would have laughed. :cry:

9. I rarely post copycats - my brain doesn't usually function that way!
I also pretty much suck at captioning photos, so I don't even try. Let's face it, I'm lame :o

22. Next time you're in Louisville, check out the Slugger museum.
They've put the Hillerich and Bradsby bat factory downtown; they'll give you a tour before you go into the museum. Leaning against the museum is a 125-foot-tall baseball bat. Lots of fun for baseball fans.

23. I don't think that's the image you intended to post
it's probably different from what you are seeing - it's really gross and needs to be edited. Plus, it's telling us that you "stole the image"

Thanks :hi:

BTW - I did that once myself - I could see the picture, but everyone else saw "FUCK YOU HOTLINKER" :D

18. Three ministers were talking about their problem with bats
in the belfry. The Baptist minister said he tried shooting them. But it didn't solve the problem, and he had a lot of little holes in the belfry from his shotgun. The Methodist minister tried live-trapping. He drove far away into the country and let the bats go. But they flew faster than a bat from you-know-where back to the belfry. The Episcopal minister said he solved his bat problem. He had them baptised and confirmed, and he hasn't seen them since.
