Mister-no-shoulders really isn't that big of a problem unless you go steppin on em or accidentally putting your hand on one.  

And yeah though, them badgers are mean little suckers.

I wonder if they're indigenous to Tehachapi?  Badgers, that is.  I'm thinkin a bb gun would only pi$$ em off and they didn’t strike me in my prior contacts with them as being particularly afraid of humans.

I went hiking this morning in the desert out by my house and so I was hiking along in this natural river bed (and it was dry at this time of year and full of sand and has lots of brush around it) and I was turning a bend when all of the sudden I hear right next to me to my left "CH CH CHCHCHCHCHCHCHCH!"
I jumped a mile high and I'm like "O SHIT!" and I turn around to look back to where I was standing to see a rattler coiled back and going "CHCHCHCHCHCHCHCH!"
I was so pissed I threw a rock at it and then it coiled back in pain and I felt bad because throwing rocks is not a humane way to kill a snake so I left it alone. I was a little "rattled" (please forgive the pun) so I went home.

But if I had a Glock... :twisted:
