I don't think you could run at all if your achilles tendon had been cut through.
You do with the right motivation, Bill. By which I mean the alternative is watching the Hollyoaks omnibus.

Ah, spam, the gruesome-est of them all
Seeing my ex give birth made me very nearly pass out. And women think they've got it bad 
Just had to locate and then throw out a dead rat in my Mum's cellar (and no, that is not a euphamism).
It went through two trays of poison before kicking the bucket and when I found it, I had to do a double take. I thought it was a stuffed animal at first, but upon closer inspection, it was a dead, monstrously sized rat.
It must have been at least seven inches long (not including the tail), but weirdly, didn't seem to weigh a lot when I picked it up from said tail.
I now have the enviable task of taking it down the road and throwing it in the rubbish bins.
And yes, I nearly done a puke.
Why not just lean it up against a tree.
Kids will think it's a squirrel and play with it,

Honestly, I thought it was a squirrel at first, until I saw it's furless tail. Is that the only difference between 'cute' squirrels and 'disgusting' rats?
Kiiiiind of similar, but not really the same.
Their faces are rounder and cuter, and their little feets are more pawlike than clawlike.

I know exactly what you mean. As someone who's enjoyed disassembling animals in private since he was a child, I've observed (once the skin is peeled away) that on a skeletal level the squirrel is by far the ugliest of the two animals. See for yourself...

And the squirrel...
Maybe don't do that then.
(Lol, though. T Rex!)
I used to live with someone who had a pet rat. It was very sweet and liked sitting on my shoulders and being walked about the flat.
D'aw.

Awesome!!!
I like rats and mice.
Spiders I am not mega keen on. I think I told the story of the neighbour's escaped tarantula.
