ORIGINAL: awshucks

My first experience w/ weasels came at the tender age of about 5 or 6. I was at my grand parents along long time ago, lol. Went to help Granny get the eggs and there were a few dead chickens and a weasel in the chicken house. Can't remember where she got her old gnarled hands on the garden hoe, but vividly recall her chasing the weasel around the chicken house w/ hoe. There were chickens flying every where, dust and chicken crap getting flung every where and still Granny would hoe, hoe, hoe after that weasel. Can't even remember who won, Granny or the weasel, lol. Some how I think this may have scarred me for life, as ever since that day, every time Christman comes around and some Santa anywhere says "Ho, Ho, Ho," I still see Granny and her hoe chasing that weasel.
