Things City-Boys Believe

If you just miss seeing a deer, it’s not a big deal because another one will be along in 20 minutes.

Whatever size black bear you come upon, there is a larger one hidden in the brush behind it, watching its back.

Mosquitoes won’t bite you if you walk confidently with your eyes straight ahead.

Bees know exactly what you mean when you give them the finger.

You can estimate the distance of a lightning strike by timing how long it takes after the sound of thunder for you to pull the pillow over your head.

Spiders are male mosquitoes.

Lightning never strikes the same person twice.

Turtles bury themselves in the mud all winter to survive the freezing cold. Robins do too, but much less successfully.

The sound bullfrogs make is a form of boasting. In most cases, it’s totally baseless.

The problem with swimming within half an hour of eating isn’t that you may cramp but that your center of gravity is moveable, causing an unappealing lopiness in your breast stroke.

Lightning never strikes the same person twice.

If you spot a snake anywhere, it could show up on any contiguous piece of land, indefinitely.

All snakes are poisonous.

The 60-cycle thrum of large herds of migrating hummingbirds makes conversation impossible for three days in Savannah Georgia and drives several citizens mad annually.
