When I was a little kid... five or so, I was playing one day and swatted a
wasp. It stung me, and so did 1/2 dozen of his friends. I killed them all, ate two of them, then showed up on the front door all swollen. :-) -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Martin Baxter" wrote in message ... katy wrote: Martin Baxter wrote: The kids can't even play tag! http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/...8KR36U00.shtml Sheesh ....
