Yow, that was WEIRD: I'm watching a movie, pause it to go to the bathroom and when I come back, there's a 6-INCH LIZARD smack in the middle of my living room...! :shocked:

I didn't have anything to catch it with so I used the new shop vac I bought a couple of weeks ago... Worked like a charm. :beaten:

I took the shop vac outside and let the little bugger go after I gave it a stern talking to for coming into my house. :mrgreen:

Whew. :sweat:

What movie were you watching b-kun? Maybe that lizard hadn't seen it in awhile. :hehe: Nice to know that you returned the little fellow to the outdoors safely. :victory:

Sad knowing that an "accident" on the train more than likely translates to someone jumping in front of the train commiting suicide. I was waiting for my train the other night and it was delayed because of an accident. I didn't get home until 2AM.

LOL. :hehe:

I was watching Collateral, starring Tom Cruise, Jamie Foxx, and Jada Pinkett Smith.

Yeah, he didn't seem too worse for wear... The shop vac didn't bang him up much. :beaten:

Yikes... Did you confirm that later? :sweat:

That happened to me once, too!! With the long tail, it was about 8 inches long and it looked like a little dinosaur standing in the living room. I, too, was able to capture it with a huge bottle and let it go outside. I was glad it didn't run away into the house somewhere!!!

Yeah, someone commited suicide. It's very sad and whenever you see "reason for delay status due to accident" is more than likely a suicide. It's really a big problem and JR is looking at installing gates on platforms. JR loses out on a lot money whenever these "accidents" occur.

Pretty cool to catch it with a bottle... :victory:

I didn't have anything that big nor did I have the time: last thing I wanted was to have it running loose in the house. :sweat:

The 3-1/2 hp shop vac made short work of the capturing task. :mrgreen:

Jeez, that's terrible... I feel bad for that person's family/friends. :(

Yes, it is indeed tragic. Also, I wonder what kind of trauma counseling/therapy the train conductors go through whenever they see these suicides?

Is that something they do in Japan?

I know that they would have counseling here in the States......

I imagine they would have something in place. That would really suck if they didn't and just let the conductors "deal with it" on their own. :beaten:

Yeah, it would. :sweat:

I wasn't sure if the Japanese would handle/approach it differently than how we do it here.

Yeah it's called "sake."
