Lizard on my screen & Scorpion has a fatal accident


Lizard's on the inside and there are a lot of flies today. I put a pile of them on the floor below him. Scorpion was between my pillows and ran into a flyswatter.

Photo fun

Wow... always check bedding, before going to bed! Check your slippers or shoes the next morning BEFORE putting your toes in!

Just a GREAT image, Lizard on the Screen. I like it.

It's like a hot bee sting if you get hit only once. If it's in your pants you're in trouble:wow:

Graham was stung 3 times, as I recall, during his 1980's walk around Baja and described the effect very well in his book 'Into a Desert Place'... I think he actually looked forward to the next sting, as he adapts well to the desert!

got stung by one 3 times inside my shirt! Do not hang clothing in palapa to dry...bahia los angeles.

stung me in a line about 1 inch apart in 3 places. felt like low voltage electrical current running between first and last sting for about 2 hours. Not real bad...maybe because it was only a couple of inches big. Never took a shirt off so fast in my life though.
