catbirdseat Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 When was the last time this happened to you? I was out running on an urban forest trail when something flew up and hit the back of my right calf. It stuck there. It felt cold and wet. It was a slug- one of those great big ones. I flicked it off with my finger, but it left yellow goo (insert vomit greamlin here). I was able to wipe off most of it on my sock. I was a bit miffed because up to that point I was making really good time. Go ahead, write haiku. I know you want to. Quote
erik Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 we had a slug throwing war a couple of weeks ago out at index. after the first one hits you, they are not gross anymore...unless you get some in your mouth! Quote
b-rock Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 My buddy on the scramble out of Breaksfast Cracks at Rocky Butte, reached up for the one tough slopey move only to slap a big yellow banana slug into mush. He almost took a bit of a tumble on that one. Quote

Dru Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 "soon they are chowing down" has extra syllable; back to haiku school Quote

I meant to write: Soon they will chow down. Sounds better anyway because it is not in the "passive voice" that Microsoft Grammar hates so much. Quote
