Free Range by Bill Whitehead for January 23, 2022

Arguably tied with “Raid”.

Thankfully we’re not seeing the victory feast

Due to the heavy load the carriers were all covered in SWeAT…

All the buzz in Fly Town.

The entire town is abuzz with the news!!

i like my electronic one……..

Brings back memories of that ol’ commercial: “RAID!!!!!”

It is said that it once killed seven with one blow.

Captured by the SWAT team.

The fear is, now that they have it they will use it against us.

Hopefully it’s not a Trojan fly swatter….

Oh my, a fly.

Too funny! But this story has too many holes in it….an investigation is already under way…with a swift lashing to the perps!

I bought an electric bug zapper that is about the size of a small tennis racquet last year. So much better than the fly swatter.

A most satisfying “CRACK” and little blue flash, then the dead bugger (pun intended) just flops to the ground/floor. The kids were fighting over using it.

This one has been tempting me for a few years now though……

Ants could do that.

I don’t usually have a problem with flies here but every so often there seems to be an infestation.  One of those times I was sitting outside with that “most feared weapon.”  After killing four I lined them up, took a picture and sent it to a friend who went to the Naval Academy.   I told him “One more and I’ll be an ace!”  A few minutes later I sent a picture with the fifth one lined up like they were painted on the fighters of WWII.  No photo caption needed!

They wouldn’t be the enemy if they would stay out of my house!

Instead of confetti, why aren’t they throwing rocks and shoes?

Will there be a fly over?
