...and I use to carry around Mercury in my pen top in the 9th grade. We traded Mercury like it was a hot commodity, and everyone wanted some because it was so cool. I'm not dead yet, but...
I should be dead.

There are idiots everywhere! :shock: Wow!
I was a vegetarian for 8 years, gained 25Lbs, thought I had ulcerative colitis and then realized that I was allergic to soy. Luckily, I am not the type that thinks everyone should be a vegetarian and never believed my children should be. I now grudgingly eat chicken & turkey (free-range, of course!) and other than being a nursing mama who can't just diet however I want to, I don't have the health problems.
Hey Skunky, if you are in town, quickly run out to the street. The Poison Truck is passing your house about now. Maybe you can still catch it. I hear that if one follows closely behind the truck for the distance of 1000 meters, he never has to wear Meta-N,N-diethyl toluamide (known by a not as scary word -- DEET) again.
Does anyone want to explain to me why the Poison Truck is running when we haven't had standing water in a long time?
It is nice weather outside, and I had planned to keep my doors and windows open, but I guess I will have to close them off, turn on the a/c and burn some coal in the process as well as running up the cost of my power bill.
The saddest thing about it was that the woman really did mean well, she was a member of this commune and after years and years of hearing about the evils of pesticides and medicines she thought she was doing what was best for the child. It just took her a while to accept that maybe she rejected one dogma only to embrace another.
And just to kind of demonstrate my point about perspectives and doing the things that speak to us...when I read that you spent 8 years eating soy for protein, I just want to hug you and say a little prayer. Soy scares me more than that truck...When I eat edamame I feel the way I think most people feel when they smoke a cigarette.
There are so many things to enjoy in Walton County's great outdoors year around. Whether you are enjoying a backyard barbeque, hiking, swimming, or just relaxing, nothing spoils the fun faster than the mosquito. (sounds like they are really concerned with Malaria)
South Walton County Mosquito Control District is an Independent Special Taxing District. It was established on May 26, 1964 by referendum under Chapter 388, Florida Statutes, through the efforts of the South Walton Lions Club, and the Walton County Chamber of Commerce for the sole purpose of controlling disease-bearing arthropods and nuisance insects to improve the quality of life in beautiful South Walton County in Northwest Florida. It operates under Chapter 388, Florida Statutes and Rule 5E-13 under the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Bureau of Entomology and Pest Control. These services are provided through the levying of a local ad valorem tax, and matching funds from the State of Florida.
South Walton County Mosquito Control District is governed by a three member Board of Commissioners, elected by the voters within the District; each Commissioner serves a four-year term. A Director is appointed by the Board to oversee the operations.
Current Board:
DIRECTOR: Gary D'Andrea
Board of Commissioners:
Charlie Burke
James "Jim" Crawford
John J. Magee
I doubt there is much in the way of qualifications, but they are not listed here. I searched on the website for the FL Dpt of State - Division of Elections, and found the following message,
"Qualifying information for the Candidates of the 2008 election will be posted to this web site as soon as it is available. Please check back for this information."
Other than paying an entry fee and maybe having a few signatures of support, I doubt there is much to qualifying, other than being connected to County Politricks.

How many people come in complaining of rashes? Somewhere in this long thread weren't strange conditions such as rashes a concern for the use of Dibram Naled and the pesticides that mosquito control uses? Questions need to be asked?
