I DEFINITELY have a soft spot for the foxes there. They saved me a few times. Saw one run right through my headlight beam and eat the scorpion that was hauling butt to me while I was sitting on a taxiway. Those things always got the scorpions in the night when they were headed my way.

Probably the remnants of some Top Secret Russian plan.
Without fully expressing my beliefs, we should most certainly start to bring back the wolves in the middle east. Would probably reduce the amount of work we have later on :dunno: :chuckle:
