Killed over 100 flies . . .

with just one swat and a stomp. I was washing my car and noticed two flies copulating on the license tag. They paid no attention to me so I swatted them and they fell to the driveway still going at it. I guess they were determined to finish or die trying. Who knows, they way those things reproduce I may have killed a thousand.

How rude of you to interrupt them. How would you like to be interrupted like that?

Not funny. Been there, done that. It was a cop shining his light into the car window when we weren't even doing anything - yet. He was the first member of the SWAT team I met (before you were ever born probably).

Been there done that, only things had already started. I bet he had a good laugh for a long time.

I am reminded of the old joke about the old maid who hated flies,

until she opened one.

Could be. Were you with the Suffolk County PD stationed in Riverhead, LI in 1966 near the SCCC campus on Riverhead Rd.?
