    Default Damn Crickets!!!

    So I sat down last night to listen to some tunes. Everything is quiet in the house, but the crickets in the backyard are singing louder than my system. Who the hell invited them to my party?

    Just be glad they aren't in your house. I had an infestation a few years back... believe me they're much louder then :D
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    They get in my garage after monsoon season out here. They are certainly, in a word, annoying.

    I have tossed a dresser trying to find one of those bastards in my house! Crickets an great sound do not mix!

    A choir of them would make me pull out the gun.

    (Yeah, I have gone to anger management but the classes pissed me off.)......hehe
