--OHMYGOD!!!!! That's the bad-tempered and lethal apocalepsis vulgarus. One sting from her and it's over!!!!!!!

As to WHAT is over, I can't tell you. Half way through the course on arthropodia one of them stung me and I can't seem to remember anything.

All I know is, don't get stung. And for Heaven's sake, NEVER - I MEAN NEVER take a photgraph of one! Bad fortune will plague you all the rest of . . .the rest of . . . well . . .something or other. I can't seem to remember what.

Yours truly,

Insecta Hexapoda
