Re: missing checkered

that's what i'll do, although it won't be easy, not a patient person by nature.

it's a bit like a siege
Night vision goggles... black face paint... camo clothing... spray yourself with "Scent Off"... LOL!!!!

Re: missing checkered

i got her! it wasn't by waiting, i just didn't think i could pull that off. we emptied the entertainment center and moved it away from the wall, then i chased her out from under it and grabbed her. not the most gracefull way to do things but very effective. i'm happy to have her back, now i need to look in to makeing the tank escape-proof.
thanks for everybodys support
