Attack of the Stink Bug
Tonight I was working on a paper for an English class. This huge bug was flying around the room and eventually landed right in front of the computer monitor. He crawled around the keyboard for a little while, and I tolerated him. Then he started climbing all over the monitor, walking up and down my English paper. Well enough is enough. It was time go get rid of him.
In one smooth and lightening quick motion I grabbed him and threw him across the room into the wall. As I was doing this the thought crossed my mind, “wow, that looks suspiciously like a stink bug.” The thought crossed my mind too late, and it was all too correct. It was indeed the skunk of the insect world.
He was a fast little stinker! He was probably in my hand for less than half a second total, but that was more than enough for his speedy stink glands. He got me. The humorous thing is that his stench is not half as vile as you would imagine based on his name. Surprisingly enough it smelled rather pleasant, incredibly similar to an apple Jolly Rancher! I am considering starting a new line of colognes, called “Fantastic Pheromones.” My first product being named “Stink Bug- For Lady Killers”

How did you post this at 1:02 if I am reading it at 12:30? Darn that ghost.
That;s a good question! The blogger clock is all messed up! I didn't change the time, but for some reason it read an hour later than it was. I posted it at like 12:02. Whatever.
Why aren't you in bed mono boy?
Jason - I think the stink bugs at your house on Monday decided to migrate to Ian's place.
::gasp:: There was a stink bug in MY room 2 days ago, perched in an all too strategic position on my window sill. It all makes sense now!! They're taking over the WORLD!!!!!!!
Haha... that's great! (funny thing, I just read the definition of pheromones in my psych book the other night!) There was another stink bug on the steps of Gore the other day, my entymology major friend wouldn't let my other friend kill it... hm.... bad move? :-P I hope you feel better!
Ian, are you sure you were not just sitting around playing solatire and decided Hmmmm what do my armpits smell like and you putt your hands under your armpits and sniffed them and they smelled like apple Jolly Rancher.
I wish! Unfortionately, I don't have solitare on my computer. I think the only I could improve my nearly odorless armpits would be to have them sweat jolly rancher juice.
Gross... and dang.
I was just wandering what the "work-room" smelled like. then I recognized the stink bug smell. (I know the smell, for I used to have a pet stink bug; his name was "king bug") I got up and looked at my chair to make sure that I had not sat upon a bug to make this smell come.
Then I got on blogger and fuond my answer... :)
hey, i wasnt sure where to post this so you ( the band dudes) would see this-- where exactly is the grange? youve probably already mentioned this but i most-likely didnt see it. thanks
Follow the link that is in the posts about the show and you'll see directions. I think it's like Wilmington or Pike Creek in Delaware.
It's off of Rt. 7
Ian what jolly rancher 'flavor' would you prefer to sweat? Apple? Watermelon? Grape?
ian and i are off to venezuela in jan. i bought tickets today.... watch out here we come
OMG A HUGE BUG... One time the UPS man crashed into our pool, what a coincidence hu????
I would have to select the watermelon flavor. However I might call it sweat melon. That would be cool, it makes me hungry just thinking about it.
Oh gross man. All I can think about is like, some buffet that's been out too long and the onions are smelling up the watermelon slices..
