    My ex girl friend took some plants that hung in our kitchen so they would not die in cold weather and hung them in sleeper and from screws over top of opening into sleeper, it smelled good and they grew alot because she talked to them over 5wk we were gone?

    I got ag inspected once by a special DOT agent in AZ westbound.

    She said if there was any of a certain kind of bug on that trailer back there back to shipper I go. It was food on that trailer. Doesnt matter.

    She didnt find any.

    That bugs me.

    I got trained on the "Spotted Lanternfly." I completed the training and signed off on it. Then sometime later I was told by someone from my company that if I see any of those things I am supposed to capture them and call DOT.

    I laughed and said the hell I am. I aint touching those things. I'll kill them, but not going to capture them then call DOT out to my truck, wait for them to arrive to collect the bug then give me a complimentary inspection.

    No thank you. Knowing my luck I'd capture that one lantern fly that bites the hell out of me and gives me the corona virus or something. I'll scrap them off my truck and step on them, but that's it. I'm not a zoologist or whatever.

    Entomology is the study of insects.

    When I was a child I loved insects. I was all about putting them in glass jars and punching holes in the top of lids and watching them and dropping other bugs in the jar to see how they got along.

    I have nothing against people that are interested in that stuff.

    My curiosities about bugs ended when I was in Portland OR and I grabbed a large grey spider to put it in a jar I prepared for it and it bit me and it hurt pretty bad. Since then I just focused on baseball. Interestingly enough I got hurt worse playing baseball, but it didn't bother me as much.

    Children are natural scientists, they do experiments every day. Adults just don't like it because they make a mess and break stuff. Even just the act of throwing a rock against a wall teaches them about physics.
