Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Martha Stewart in a bunnygirl outfit something that would make you go OMGWTF?
She was a model, back in the 60's. But I suspect it was genteel modelling, not naked Scavullo modelling. But Martha Stewart, now, in a bunny suit would have me reaching for the brain bleach.
Cool. Cheers!
Martha Stewart is a fairly dignified, waspy-preppy looking woman of about 65. Bunny suit NO.
And yet I'm sure there is fic about exactly that, somewhere.
Cat Remote Control, Make Them Do What You Want
Simply point at your cat, press buttons on the remote and hope for the best. With buttons for “Stop Scratching”, “Show Affection”, “Remain Aloof” and others, you’ll be in control in no time. It’s finally your turn to make your cat do what you want.
Re: stinging insects - I would just like to note that Alaska's mosquitoes are so large that they've been known to carry off small animals. Okay, not really, but they are large, vicious, and sneaky bastards. AK also has chiggers, horseflies, wasps, and bees. (I am allergic like woah to the latter two.) However, we do not have any snakes or cockroaches (at least in the Interior), for which I was profoundly grateful as a child, because UGH.
I did get chased by a moose once, though.
When I was about 9 or 10, a bee landed on my nose, and then flew away. I didn't feel a sting, but both of my eyes ended up swelling up something awful.
I got nuthin to add on the bug front. Other than insect bites = bad. We get skeeters in our house here and it sucks, but it's nothing like either Hawaii or Ohio.
Oh wait. I do have something to add. I did a backpacking trip in Yosemite for 5 days. When I got out of my sleeping bag to go pee at dawn, the mosquitoes were swarming the bag when I got back. They are attracted to both C02 and heat. Makes them hard to avoid.
Our leader had been in the Peace Corps in Honduras. She said that she wouldn't shower if, when she was in the shower and she lifted her arm up and down, she hit more than 20 mosquitoes. Um. yikes.

If the moose in question did not bite your sister, it does not count as an official moose encounter.
I am really disillusioned with my career choice this morning.
