Good one Paladin. I knew it was older than 1951,, or even 1958, but never bothered to look it up.
Ok, the inquiring minds have made comments about trapping a Bearcat,, and what it entails. Here ya go;
First,, you have to use a trap. The type of trap is a bit different than for many critters. I've seen them in gun shows, gun shops, pawn shops, estate sales, internet ads, and even little old widow women's homes. They are there,,, because someone has a Bearcat that they can't live with anymore,, and they set a trap for those poor souls who have an affliction called "Rugeritis!" Often,, they slip into such places,, kinda quietly,, and appear nonchalant.
The next little attractant,, but one as powerful as the scent of a skunk,, is a little tag that has a number on it,, preceded by a funny symbol,, (this $ ) I equate it to how a trapper places a bird feather hanging over a trap swinging in the breeze to garner attention from far & wide.
When an afflicted Rugerite sees the little tag,, they get a focused upon that,, and they are almost in the trap,, as they approach it. They get the little tag in their hands,, and the trap is about to fire. They see that little symbol, and the following numbers,, and bingo,, they are snared! The reaction of seeing the tag,, causes them to reach for their wallet,, whip it out,, withdrawing these funny little pieces of paper,, with pictures of dead presidents upon them, with the matching little sign,, to mate up with the numbers on that tag.
And the Bearcat has caught another Rugerite. Or,, as we like to relate,, we have caught a Bearcat to take to our homes & enjoy.
