Is it rude to tell a bald man a hair-raising story - "Your speaking ability and his hearing are not related to his lack of hair growth" - Sorry for the raspy sound - even bugs have the right to be heard and seen The mosquito burrows greedily into the shiny skull at the expense of his unhappiness The spirit of Bloody Mary drive the victim crazy with intense itching Mosquitoes drinking your blood until they burst Just how bloody is; Bloody Mary ? (the ultimate cure for hangovers) Protect your bald head from bright sunlight ... and bloodsuckers

Mosquitoes are the worst. They blood suck me at the beginning of every summer for a good month They haunt me and then attack me and once they have had their fill go on to their next. victim. Clever write my dear friend. Hugs and blessings Jennifer

Seems like sound advice to me. If I've ever got my mallet on me, and I spot this happening to a bald man, I will take the appropriate action. Just hope he's appreciative.

Anne-Lise, hope you can remain unbitten. I just got my first bite of the season yesterday. It's a sign to apply skin-so-soft before going outside to do any yard work or to sit and try to relax and enjoy the nice weather. It turns our the females are the biting ones, and I was amused at the spirit of "Bloody Mary." Interesting species...but unfortunately also a disease vector.

Who likes mosquitoes. Soon we will have plenty of them. I find lemon great to cure their bites. As for Bloody Mary I prefer to drink it than waste it on bald heads :)

Oh I HATE mosquitoes! We have the little suckers coming after us. My hubby wears a baseball cap all the time, so at least they aren't making his head itch :) You made me itchy reading this!

I'm okay. Way to go. I could write volumes of rude things mosquitoes have done to me in my life, sometimes in rude places. For some reason my body overreacts, dramatizes by swelling & torturing so it's funny weird that today they swelled laughter ... CayCay
