I was outside one day and was wondering why there were so many wasps wandering around. Looked under the deck and there was a nest. So, with my fear of yellow-and-black striped insects, and having a bit of time on my hands, I uprated a bunch of the parts in one of those $3.00 electric fly swatters, mounted it on an old telescope tripod, and ran long wires to power it into the house. I had a little analog meter hooked up to it so I could watch the needle jump when it zapped a wasp. Worked pretty well until the wasps figured out what was happening and attacked it - there were so many wasps on it at a time it couldn't recharge enough to zap any of them. That was when the Raid came out. Man, I hate wasps. · Additional Info Rating: 10.00 Print View Quick Rate: Poor Excellent

Me: "Why on earth do you say that?" Husband: "There's all these messages for men wanting to be pencilled in to your schedule" (referring to my fencing work in the schools). ThatReallyHurt Boom!

It was kind of surreal when the wasps attacked it - there were zillions of them all over it. ------------------------------ Pound for pound, the amoeba is the most vicious animal on earth.

Although my favourite is my dog deciding to poop on a ground wasp's nest.... and the mayhem that happened shortly afterwards. ------------------------------ Husband while looking at the e-mails: "I feel like I'm living with a high-end call girl".

I mean that rocks in way which cannot be properly expressed in an language. ------------------------------ The impact of any politician on everyday life should be inversely proportional to the size of their constituency.
