lost the exact cut copy paste BUT in re nighttime leg cramps...

I discovered while researching all I could about gin and tonic water after discovering the deliciousness that is a Bombay Sapphire G&T that tonic water is great for leg cramps.

Okay, so billytea and other people who know creepy crawlies, what kind of spider is this? And what are the four white things? And should I kill it or just relocate it off the adirondack chairs? [link] Jilli, don't look.

Also, Venus? Why Venus? It's like the worst place to visit in the Solar System.

Pfft, have you been to Mercury? I didn't think so.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

chiggers

Don't know about a powder, but 25% DEET has always done a good job of keeping chiggers away for me. And when I forget to spritz on the DEET and get bit, Chigarid is good at soothing the itching.

I went to the airshow last month just to watch the Harrier perform.

spider

Not much detail, but it does not look like a brown recluse, and definitely not a black widow. The white things are probably egg cases. No need to kill it.

Not Billy, but I bet those are egg sacs.

I don't know what chiggers are, and I don't want to.

You know, those magnetic jars wouldn't be that hard to make. It's a question of getting the magnets.

Little teeny tiny red bugs and they get between your toes and itch like a Mofo.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Steph, I have good news and bad news.

Good news: I also went there.

Bad news: I love Magnolia.

I think I knew that. I suppose you -- and JZ -- are allowed your totally wrongheaded opinions, though I weep copious tears for your wrongheadedness.

Heh. Teppy, I was hesitant even making that reference, knowing your hatred of Magnolia....

It's gotten legendary, hasn't it? Like Theo's hatred of JR.

Dude! I am already at the point where I itch all over. Don't make me itch between the toes!!
