latest polarizing issue

| me? I dunno... 2004-07-19, 2:45 pm |
| flick or swat...
the battle lines are already being drawn.
it didnt take me long to figure out the best solution, obviously 'flick-then-swat'... or in a pinch... 'grab then squish'
no doubt I'll be vilified for taking both sides of the issue, and at the same time one of my enemies will steal the 'grab then squish' option as their own.
its tough at the top... | |

| It was with much trepidation, and then much delight, that I read this post and the article. Well done, fella!
Me, I avoid the whole issue by drowning myself in deet.
Although, if you take a fabric softener dryer sheet and tuck it into the neck and sleeves of your shirt, you're probably about as well off. I found it to be effective when we were picking blackberries in mid-evening in a rural area. | |

I don't know about over there, but here in Georgia we have to keep our pets indoors at night if we don't want them to be carried off by the 'skeeters. | |

Tea drinking eccentrics? sounds like a redneck! Oh, wait, we pour ours over ice, and darjeeling isn't something a true southerner can even pronounce.

Hell even our most venomous snake(well actually our 'only' venomous snake) has only killed 14 people since 1876.
Man! our least venomous snake killed that many last month! (and still we choose to live here?) Right now our hazards aren't so much snakes, they're bull sharks and alligators. 'Course, if you don't live near water, neither of those are really hazards; but who would want to not live near water? BTW, everyone knows about Great White sharks, but actually bull sharks are more agressive than Great Whites, and they're found in just about all warmish salt water bodies in the world.

The only dangerous thing the average Brit will come across is travelling down to the big smoke to visit the queen and breathing in all that smog you've no doubt seen in Sherlock Holmes films.
Another thing we took and proliferated in the States. 
Ah yes, life is an adventure in AMerica. |
