Where is this percentages quiz thing?
I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
Katie, that sounds like my family, sorta. When my brother died, we had him cremated and we disposed of his ashes in his favorite state park. But the folks still wanted a tangible memorial of some sort, so they had an inscribed brick placed in one of the walkways of the local botanical garden, which he was very fond of. No one could ever remember exactly where his brick was, so it was always fun hunting it up. Now, the garden is redoing all the walkways and his brick is kind of in limbo until they're done. We'll have a new quest for the brick when they relay it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

The only scorpion known to occur in Arkansas is the common striped bark scorpion, Centruroides vittatus. >[link]msbelle, when my grand-uncle got back from India after WWII (he was an airplane mechanic for the C-47s flying the Hump) he brought back with him a raging case of malaria. He was in bed shivering with fever when a scorpion fell off the ceiling and stung him on the arm. What a way to be welcomed home! He said at that point he just wanted to give up and die.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I was stung by a saddleback caterpillar [link] once, and it was really painful. It was more painful than the time I was stung on the lip by a wasp, right after I said, "I'll spray them. Wasps don't sting me." An individual fire ant bite may be lower on the pain scale, but usually you get more than one.
