F**k that! I would be on the next plane home if that thing flapped its way towards me.
wow !
that is most excellent.

I had a mahoosive locust (or 'garad' in Arabic) land on me in Egypt, I swear to god I squealed like a big girl *shudder*

+1
As pretty as it is I would have a near panic attack if that was flapping about in my room at night. I hate it when you don't know where they will flap to next and that sound when they hit walls while you try to sleep.
I have an eye condition as well (called "lazy eye", but not sure if that is the correct term in English) and it is indeed a fact that wearing glasses will make your eyesight go worse. Your eyes get used to the "help" provided and are working less hard to achieve the same level of eyesight. So best is to keep your eyes in shape as long as possible (they will still deteriorate, but slower). I have -.75 and not wearing glasses either.

They're great, especially when eldest son reads the instructions and the large font red warning about not to touch....
*KERZAPP!* Cue much swearing from him and tears of laughter from me

I touched one with my tongue once. Also whilst drunk (there's a theme developing here...). Don't do it :!:
Bing, is it like licking a battery ? Not that I have ever done that..... ERM.......
