know what i hate????
traffic court and stuff and other things. argh! i hate waking up to go to traffic court! no drinks last night because i guess it's frowned upon to show up to court drunk, i got about no sleep, kid woke up umpteen times, the wife managed to break the toilet seat at some point in the night and neglected to tell me almost resulting in my castrating myself while taking my morning glory. yeah, this day is already bringing the suck in a big way.

did i mention house flies???? idk where these sumbishes are coming from but every time i have a door open for more than 5 seconds it seems like 20 of them get in the house and bother the shyte out of me. it's trashy as hell, but i guess i'm going to pick up some of those nasty looking fly paper ceiling dangly things. whole town is full of flys, i assume it has something to do with the grain bins down the road as it happens every year around this time.

:tinfoilhatyoullthinkimcrazyashellidea:
put a few pennies in a small zip lock bag full of water and hang it near the door. = it works.
My Indian friend (thats a "thank you, come again" Indian not a "Im going to scalp pale face" Indian) has them all over the place at his junk yard. It really does work.

Ive always seen them at my buddies junk yard but never put much faith in them. Some time later my lab had puppies and well...we had flies in her pen. I hung the little bags of pennies and they went away almost immediately.
I keep a couple bags hung up on the inside of the shop by the door and I havent had a bit of trouble from the random for no real reason fly for a few years now.
Not sure why it works but it does and best of all what have you lost if it doesnt?

i say it doesn't work. not one dead fly in the bag (if that's how it's supposed to work) and they are still flying all around in the house. been killing them with a dish towel as i find it more fun and effective than a swatter.
the real fun will begin around midnight-ish, once i get a buzz going i hit some kind of white trash ninja status and i can catch flies with my thumb and forefinger right out the air. it's actually pretty cool, especially once i start talking chit like i'm a bad *** fly killing ****

I think you need someone to check your house for gas leaks.
