Cockroach in ear

federica

Maybe that's the reason why we had only few cockroaches in our house in Kerala... the colonies of lizards... their noise sounded always like if they were laughing about us...

But the cockroaches I've seen in India were soooo big, I am sure they wouldn't fit in my ear

But even the big ones were little baby cockroaches at one point in time, and they fit in your ear very snugly as we found out the other night!

Oops Sorry! MIB is Men In Black, a hollywood movie starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones.

Excerpt from Wikipedia:
Men in Black is a 1997 science fiction comedy action film directed by Barry Sonnenfeld, starring Tommy Lee Jones, Will Smith and Vincent D'Onofrio. The film was based on the comic book series The Men in Black by Lowell Cunningham, by Aircel Comics which is owned by Marvel Comics. The film featured the creature animation of Rick Baker. The movie was a hit, grossing over USD$250 million in the United States and over $589 million worldwide. It was followed by a sequel, Men in Black II, in 2002.

Tagline: Protecting the Earth from the scum of the universe.

off topic I know but I was reminded of this - it is about lizards/geckos, and is not gross like the cockroach in ear experience.........

My former boss was seconded to work in Laos for a few months and being from North Asia was not used to geckos at all, in fact she is really scared of them. Unsurprisingly there was a gecko in her room. she was terrified and ran down to reception, realised that she didnt know how to say lizard or gecko in english and (with great imagination) announced that she wanted another room as there was a small crocodile in the room she was in!! wonderful!

(off topic) I can't for the world understand why most Indian women seem to be scared/hate lizards!? Is this particular of India or what...does this have any background? I find lizards to be very cute animals (I of course hate when they sh** on my walls, but that's another story), they look cute, they act cute, so what's the problem, I wonder?

(Note: I am scared of bugs, spiders and stuff, like most women...but lizards?)
