Did I ever tell you about the time Gateway's marketing team decided, in their infinite South Dakotan wisdom, to name the new laptop model "The Fire Ant"? So to celebrate the release, they put up four-foot-long cow-spotted ants in front of the office complex?
Huh. There used to be a gi-normous Gila Monster on the roof of the Western bar that was across the street from my college. Sounds like the mosquito would have made a perfect snack for him.
Augh, mad love for that icon!!! F-ing Agree!! And I say this having finished da book only 2 days ago... so the world's luck was with me that I only saw this now. Luck is my supersized three-scoop root beer float this week.
Oh, don't worry, I gave a nice loud one when I stepped out of the elevator.
They've moved it now, I assume over to the State Fair. Where it can frighten innocent rural children. It will come back smelling of cows and rotting mustard.

Thank you.
You have probably saved people from me having an earsplitting shriek and then freaking out in a way that would be more damaging than comical.
