    I work in an office park right next to a busy freeway in Sacramento, California. There is a chain link fence separating the office property from the freeway with a blacktop walking path right next to it. As I was walking up to the back door of the building this morning, two coyotes came trotting up the path. The trailing coyote looked right at me but didn't pause. Probably thought, "Ugh, too fatty, loaded with sugar, caffeine, and preservatives." A couple of hours later, I saw one of them heading the opposite direction down the path. Maybe he was walking the other one home earlier?

    My other signature is witty and insightful.

      When I saw your subject, two thoughts came to mind. 1. This was a post about less-attractive girls that work in your office, or 2. Prairie Dogging (you know, when someone drops something loud and all the heads pop up over the top of the cubicles to see what it was).

          I didn't think of Wile E. Coyote, Super Genius, until you mentioned it. I would have if they had been loading a large stone into a catapult.

                It's deer, here. They keep running in and out of the forest, to look for food (snow since 17th dec). I was never a big Bambi fan, but seeing a group of young deer running through the town is a pure delight.

                  We've got a 'wannabe wonder guy' at work like that. After all these years he still thinks a loud voice baffles bullshit detectors.
