What is this? - Page 5

I recall seeing an episode of Cops, I think, where there was a dude riding his lawnmower down the street. Problem was that he was piss drunk. And apparently you can get a DUI on your John Deere.

Edit:
I love youtube.

Looks like he is either cruisin' on the sidewalk, pickin up the leaves or cuttin some really dead grass.

That's a lizard? The thing in the hanging off the nest? Looks like a scorpion or something. I'm so confused...I think the pic viewing part of my brain short-circuited or something.

The lizard is the thing on the right in the box. It looks like a rust stain.

Shawnee123 · 07-24-2007, 08:49 AM

Then, there are more than two critters in this pic?

DanaC · 07-24-2007, 08:55 AM

Whatever it is it appears to have very big antennae.

glatt · 07-24-2007, 09:18 AM

The real question is: Were those bare black (hot) wires exposed all the time

, or did Flint take a wire nut off when he opened the box?

yesman065 · 07-24-2007, 09:16 AM

A hopper of the grass ??

DanaC · 07-24-2007, 09:22 AM

It looks like no wasp i've ever seen

Shawnee123 · 07-24-2007, 09:25 AM

I know things are bigger in Texas, but that looks nothing like a wasp
.

glatt · 07-24-2007, 09:33 AM

Huh? It looks exactly like a wasp. You're looking at it from underneath.

Shawnee123 · 07-24-2007, 09:52 AM

Really???????

Still looks like a cricket or scorpion to me. Must be the camera angle.

DucksNuts · 07-24-2007, 09:30 PM

Cricket to me, as well.

That was the second critter I was referring too.

steambender · 07-24-2007, 10:52 PM

It might not be Mom, it might be baby just crawled out and still drying off, too soft to fly and not yet adult colors. it would make a soft tasty snack at a time like this, which might explain the lizard. Lizards don't have jobs, so they can hang out and wait for events like hatching...
