    Their tribal wisdom tells them that you'll have to come out of there eventually. They are patient...

    We think they are bad here in the Southeast but, my Uncle Emro said when he got to France after the boat ride during WWI that first night about sundown they had to get under the wash tubs and wash pots. Still some of those skeeters teamed up and poked their beaks into those pots and flew off with them. We could have it worse.

    They get more than their share of my blood as it is! The red cross has started calling them instead of me.
