I, on the other hand, do not.
Do you know who ate the majority of those Drumsticks and licorice
(among other things).
I'll give you a small clue. It wasn't Nate.
So even though I don't thank you, my butt and thighs do.
"I like 'em big. I like 'em chunk-ay..."

Nate had a new toy arrive in the mail today.
It's not a tennis racket (it's more fun than tennis).
It's a hand held bug zapper.
The power over life and death held in the palm of your hand.
Looks like we've found a way to solve our little fruit fly problem.
Now instead of having smashed fruit fly remnants on our counter tops we will have tiny bits of fruit fly particles floating around. It's not so bad once you get past the floating fruit fly participial bit.
The first thing I said to Nate when he opened up his new toy was, "How bad do you think it shocks? Try it out."
Nate cautiously reaches out with his pointer finger and ZAP! The smell of burning flesh immediately fills the air and Nate shouts out, "Man, that hurt really bad!" (Me, laughing) "No, Ginnie, I'm serious. I think I just blacked out. Did I just black out?" As best I could I gathered myself to be the loving support Nate needed during this urgent moment and replied, "So, I'm guessing this is NOT a kid toy?"
I'm sorry you touched it honey, but if I told you to jump off a cliff would you?
Needless to say, the fly Zapper works--
not just on flies, but grown adults as well.

I think I can speak for all of your commenters when I say, thank you both for sacrificing yourselves--your butt, thighs, and burnt fingers--for our reading pleasure. We really, really appreciate it.
I guess Nate didn't read the review on Walmart.com, the one that said .. Of course most men need to find out for themselves if it really works..
"A WORD OF WARNING: It really works ... it zaps bugs and you. It will hurt, a lot. Don't give it to irresponsible adults or drunks. Use it wisely, use it for its intended purpose, have a few laughs while the flies fry, and be safe."
Enjoy those fruit fly particles..
I MUST HAVE one of those!
OH that is too funny! What a good idea. We've had the fruit fly issue too, now I know a good way to take care of it.
That is so funny! The woman always gets blamed though. haha.
Hey, just thought I'd come and see your blog before our photo shoot in a couple days...and I have to say...that we have one of these! I do feel slightly guilty when I use it...poor flies picked the wrong house!!
Haha, Scott's dad gave us one of the bug zappers! I actually like it, just don't use it on your kids ;)
