Well, I try not to the fruit flies seem to like beer around here homebrew or otherwise. Really can't fault them for that I guess.

I had to come inside before I caught malaria.

There is virtually no mosquitos here in El Paso, I just came in from the backyard. I was having a smoke out there shirtless, and no bites. It has been bone dry here in EL Paso, just this week we got some rain but not much.

I hate those damn things to.

That's in my Top 5 Favorite Things About Moving to the Desert.

Gainesville, FL is infested with them. Especially with the pond in our backyard. Haven't even seen one in the two months we have been here in Cave Creek, AZ.

Im curious to hear what the other 4 are... having a $250 electric bill from running the AC all day and night can't be one of them

It was really still last night- that's probably why they were so bad. Bob and I have lots of bites on us, even though we came in at dark.

When my nephew went home to Ohio, he was an expert at the "Michigan Wave"!
