jurassic chores
I just saw the most ginormous moth. seriously this went waaaay beyond steroids. I'm telling you this thing was the size of a bat! which was what I thought it was at first when I opened the laundry room door, flipped on the lights, and saw this black thing flying around the bulb. I swear I heard it squeak - can they do that? do bugs even have vocal chords? I jumped back out the door and shut it as it swooped about. But then when I cautiously peeked in again it had settled on the curtain and I saw that it was actually a very large bug! like it was cross-bred with an ostritch or something. You hear about huge bugs, but you never actually see them. I'm sure I looked pretty odd crouched by the laundry room door and slowly creeping inside like I was spying, heh =) I managed to get my dry clothes without disturbing it agian. That was really rather scary though. Maybe an actuall bat would have been scarier, but it would have been pretty gross to be hit by a gigantic frenzied hairy moth too! heh......it was like Hagrid as a moth - 'too big to be allowed.'

Yay for moths!
maybe it will be the mutant moths rather than cockroaches that will populate the world after we wipe ourselves out in world war III =p
hmm...that could make a fun sci-fi, what would moth technology look like?
First off, it would be made for four hands instead of two. It would be more wall-based and ceiling-based than floor-based, possibly with little paths running around on the walls. Or maybe little trenches, so they could kind of prop themselves up and work the controls with their heads sticking out of the trenches. Feathery antennae would be considered really hot, and the guy moths would comb theirs out with something similar to mascara.
Also, they would have jet-packs. Or maybe rocket-horses.
LOL!! =)
At least, you never actually see them in the U.S. Sometimes in places like Mexico.
