I didn't check its ID so it might have been a roach or bee in disguise, but I am giving it the benefit of the doubt.<br /><br />@nipsy: Georgie would probably end up on a list that prevents him from living within 1000 feet of a school or playground.<br /><br />@Kloggers: I remember playing with them as a kid, too.

Damn, those things could move.Cromelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02220177112637075263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8034970.post-91925479106029581852009-04-29T17:45:00.000-07:002009-04-29T17:45:00.000-07:00In England they are called Ladybirds - they tend t...In England they are called Ladybirds - they tend to be red with black spots from the Midlands down South and then further up North there are more black with red spotted ones. We also have yellow with black spots and the odd brown with black spots. The two spot is probably the most common and the smallest. It used to be the way to show young children that beetles were harmless as youngsters would play with them and allow them to crawl over their hands and fingers.

I miss growing my vegetable garden. <br /><br />As for disturbing nursery rhymes, what about:<br /><br />Georgie Porgie, puddin' and pie,<br />Kissed the girls and made them cry.<br />When the boys came out to play,<br />Georgie Porgie ran away. <br /><br />Sexual harassment at its beginnings.
