Yuck! Fortunately, the little buggers didn't jump to my head, but for years afterward, every time I felt an itch on my head, I panicked! I don't envy you.<BR/>Loved your post yesterday. Hangover headache or not, sounded like a wonderful time.

They kept spreading around school due to classmates who refused to kill them on religious purposes!
