The nights excitement.

So we were upstairs playing a card game with the kids. Stacy opened a
cabinet in the kids desk and immediately slammed it shut and jumped
back. In my best Jose Wales voice I looked at her calmly and asked,
"Scorpion". She nodded yes.

I jumped into action running to the upstairs bar and retrieved a beer
glass to confine the vile beast.

In one swift, deft move I opened the
cabinet and snared the creepy little bastard.

Then I ran downstairs to retrieve my weapons.

Upon my return I opened the cabinet. He tried to stare me down. I got right
in his face. I could smell the vile stench emanating from his piehole
as he hissed,

"I am Gozer the Traveler. I have
come in one of the pre-chosen forms. During the rectification of the
Vuldrini, the traveler came as a large and moving Torg! Then, during
the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they
chose a new form for me: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls
knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I
can tell you!"

I said, "oh yeah, I got Tupperware, B1tch"

Are there any miniature Slors? I've certainly never heard of one...

The smaller the Slor, the deadlier.

Go to the garage and get a can of spray brake cleaner or carb cleaner. A short spray of this and the scorpion will sting itself to death and be no issue in about 2 minutes.

I have cans in various places around the house... and a black light to find them. They glow in the dark under a black-light.

The blacklight thing is good to know. Wife killed one this week on the stairs in the middle of the house. Well, killed is too mild, smashed the living crap out of it with a shoe more like.

Brake cleaner in the house must be hell to smell and hard on woodwork & paint. But I bet it works!

We have had two in the house in a dozen years or so. The first one was tiny. The dog ran over and started sniffing. She yelped but never had much of a reaction. I made the little bugger a lot flatter with my shoe.

Brainless killing machines. They are the robot warriors of the natural world. They have no reason to live.
