Was raised in Florida, it was no biggie to me growing up. Funny story, was stationed in Mayport, Fl on the Saratoga CV-60 (aircraft carrier, they had Tom Cats Sniper) she was my first ship. Anyway, I used to run the carpenter shop on there. Second deployment to the Med. I hade made me a Plexiglass and mahogany framed box, Terarrium if you will. Well I captured me a pair of my little brown scorpion buddies there and took them with me. They had a nice little place on my desk there in the shop. One of the Cooks Harry'O always brought me cock roaches to keep them fed. They had a nice 7 month deployment. I let them go when we got back. Stupid officers looked right in the box during every damn zone inspection, never saw the things. Told them it was sand and rocks and sticks from Arizona, keep me from getting home sick. I'm from fuckin Florida, idiots. I guess I might have gott in a bit of trouble, orrrrrr, could have found another dumb officer.
Be safe.............the night is your friend.
Wisconsin has its own version of the scorpion... its called a porcupine!
RELIGION IS LIKE A PENIS
Its fine to have one,
Its fine to be proud of it,
But please dont whip it out in public and start waving it around,
And PLEASE dont try to force it down my children's throats.

Common sense is so rare these days, it should be re-classified as a super power.
I found one tucked up in my helmet after leaning on a tree on a hot day in texas. I felt ants on me so I pulled the helmet off and the there it was, between my nape protector and the Kevlar. Also had found one after picking up a chock block. I'm glad they're not up here in PA, makes the 0 degree days bearable knowing no scorpions.
All we got up here are the damned snow snakes...
Give a man fire, and he'll be warm for a day!
Light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life!
Cat's are food... not friends!
If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.
OK, I'll bite WTF is a snow snake??????
Mythical creature known throughout parts of Canada and USSR (Same latitude). On the ground they are almost impossible to see, but they sometimes hunt from trees, and show themselves off.
A mid-sized female:
A young one:
Their bite though not poisonous per se, causes the blood to run cold and if the victom doesn't get treated immediately, death by hypothermia is frequent...
