Woman Hears Knock At Door - Answers It - 8 Foot Alligator On Porch
<snip>

BONITA SPRINGS, Fla. -- So now the alligators are going door to door.

A Florida woman heard someone knocking at the door of her home in Bonita Springs this week. When she looked out, she saw an 8-foot alligator.

Lori Pachelli said the bull gator had a bloody lip from banging its head against the door.

It apparently had wandered up from the pond behind her house. She said it may have followed her home from walking her dog.

The gator remained at the door for about an hour before going back into the water, where a trapper later captured it.

The trapper said it's not unusual to find male alligators in interesting places this time of year since it's breeding season.

Somebody's knocking should I let him in
Lord it's the devil would you look at him
I've heard about him but I never dreamed
He'd have blue eyes and blue jeans

Well somebody's talking he's whispering to me
Your place or my place well which will it be
I'm getting weaker and he's coming on strong
But I don't wanta go wrong

He must have tapped my telephone line

He must have known I'm spending my time alone
He says we'll have one heavenly night
My fever's burning so he ought to be right at home

Somebody's knocking should I let him in
Lord it's the devil would you look at him
I've heard about him but I never dreamed
He'd have blue eyes and blue jeans

He must have tapped my telephone line
He must have known I'm spending my time alone
He says we'll have one heavenly night
My fever's burning so he ought to be right at home

9. Could have been worse ....
Could have been a republican campaign worker. On second thought, what's the essential difference?
