I suddenly have the urge to mate with a large piece of concrete with rusty nails sticking out of it. Something is definitely amiss in Mayberry. p.s Brock's Aqua Velva is killing me! Good one Wilets :)

Santa Cruz County just went through a whole bunch of craziness when it came to spraying for the LBAM. Bottom line? They're spraying a pheromone, not dropping a poison on residents. Dozens of people called the county public health department after the first scheduled spray to complain about the effects of the pesticide on their health. Funnily enough, the spraying hadn't occurred yet, due to the fog being too thick for the planes to take off.
