Exactly... There's a few of those that I would absolutely open fire on. :eek:

My introduction to west Texas (USAF flight school) was a flying cockroach at 3:00 in the morning, flitting around my room. Woke me up, flip on the light, three-inch roach going ape all over the room. I grab one of my flight boots and just as he lands on a stack of papers I hammer him. SPLAT! Snot-like guts shot everywhere. Left the light on and went back to sleep. Then while shaving one would stick his antennae up through the drain or out of the overflow in the sink. They'd crawl out of the tub drain. Quickly learned to close all drains when not in use. Give me the relatively bug-free PNW.

My broken broomstick from November 2003 says differently. I was talking to a cute young Republican at my door when a spider similar to my above picture started to drop down on a silk strand. I broke the broom stick killing that thing!

So, how do you get the green slime out of the thing as you prepare it for your feast?

No thanks.
