So, the centipedes in Hawaii are nasty little creatures. I got two stories.

First, I was laying in bed early morning and my GF was taking shower. I could see right in to the bathroom. When she gets out and begins to dry off, At centipede was inside the towel and it fell on her naked body, tumbled down her breast and to the floor. I saw it all and it was nuts...she screamed so loud my roommates thought I was beating her. Freaking classic.

Next, I was tending to my plants one late afternoon, and I had slippers on. I feel this pinch on my big toe and I had a delayed reaction (Probably b/c of said plants). I lift up my foot and the thing is hanging on like a crab on a chicken neck. I was shaking my foot so hard and it finally let go. I took the garden hose and sprayed the bite directly while squeezing it. The toe was numb for hours.

Probably my least favorite creature....next to black widows and copper heads!

 

Mosquitos kill more people than any other insect, bar non.
They are my arch-villains!!! Hate the little fvckers.
Malaria, dengue, zika, chukunguya, equine encephalitis, west nile virus, to name a few of the known killers they bring to you.
Spray, spray, spray!!! We need a new type of DDT, one that is not toxic to other organisms in the food chain.
Get on it Monsanto, Dow, and others.

 

Nice. IRI? or somewhere along the state park? ..looks like you needed to be ~30 yards north.

 

Yes sir. Ha ha, there were a lot of right spots that day.

 

Just finished my other hobby, one of many. My home theater remodel, which took a couple months...Finally got the sound dialed in...built all the subs (6) and surround speakers (4) myself...except the front left, center and right speakers. Gonna build those this winter.

 

Ho Lee Chit, NICE!!!

 

DQ, do you eat them or just for fun? I am not a fan of eating any fresh water fish, but I love catching them! HA Nice Feesh!

 

Greatest Day in the history of trout fishing. April 11th, 2009. Me and two buddies on the West Branch of the Brandywine River in PA. All three of us caught multiple 20 plus inch pig Rainbows. Fileted them like Salmon. No bones. VERY tasty.

 

that thing looks evil
