We had a moth infestation that year -- they come along periodically for reasons unknown to me -- and his garage was filled with thousands of the little buggers. We killed so many of them that we covered in moth dust by the end of the night. I don't remember what we ate for dinner later, but it might have been pizza. Pizza is really good.MikeWJhttp://www.toomanymornings.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5323419366850641338.post-26637575981093412852011-07-24T13:49:07.181-04:002011-07-24T13:49:07.181-04:00Honey, what's this business with a "Mexic...Honey, what's this business with a "Mexican" stand off.

Well, yeah, actually, sometimes it's on purpose.<br /><br />Are you sure he was dead? One of my husband's uncles got squished a few years ago, and he's still alive. <br /><br />I don't think eating moth dust would kill anyone. But I'm glad you came up with a clean solution to retrieve your pizza slices. Thank goodness for your firefighter training! This could have been much worse.

If you watch them, they are obviously the inbred uncle/brothers or sister/aunts of the insect world. Turn on a light and they go right for it, throwing themselves against the burning glass like mental patients to a padded cell door. The difference? Mental patients can't go anywhere else. Moths can go anywhere else and they still choose the pain. Perhaps deep seeded inferiority complex caused by their jealousy of butterflies?Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04663812073515798267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5323419366850641338.post-87369324379556593192011-07-19T10:56:25.519-04:002011-07-19T10:56:25.519-04:00This may be your best post yet.
