26. I felt something hit my shoulder...
Looked over, didn't see anything, thought "Hmmm...that was weird..."

About 30 seconds later, I noticed something moving out of the corner of my eye...this FREAKIN' ENORMOUS praying mantis was on my sun visor, like 4 inches from my face. I opened the door, and evacuated the vehicle.

Did I mention I was driving? :D

Fortunately, I was only going about 20 mph, and my car came to a stop by bouncing into a nice solid blue US Postal Service box on the corner. My passenger was less than pleased, but there was no damage other than to nerves. And no, to my knowledge they don't bite or sting or anything, but they are double-plus grody. x( :puke:


I'm glad you had some nice folks to take care of you. :hi:
