Ok, I'm leaving Chicago to go to Atlanta (I know, I know, one murdering violent hell-hole to another) and see my brother Laz.
Any parting words of advice from all of you who know him best?
Should I up the life insurance?
“If you ain’t ever been bit by the nasty little insects, your life ain’t complete. Hate em”
I’ve lived in Alabama all my life & never heard of Chiggers until last month.
I sat in my yard for several hours pulling weeds. A few days later, I started itching horribly & developed a rash from Hell all over my body.
My doctor gave me a topical cream, Vistaril & Prednisone. The Vistaril & Prednisone, combined with my Xanax for my panic attacks, made for a couple of “interesting” weeks.
Let’s just say I learned about Chiggers the hard way. I also learned that I HATE them.
Precisely
Here in the Florida Panhandle we call them red bugs. You can pretty much keep them off by using Off or any other brand.
If you do get bit, you can kill them with salty meat grease. Then you can ease the itching with cortisone cream.

Port Aransas might be a place to start... and Laz is hundreds of miles away ... (not much competition, cops will spot you right away)
Panama City Beach during Spring Break will have the quantity but the quality is only fairly good.
If he tells you he has the Zeka Virus don’t believe him.
Even if he wants to prove it.
(but that's in Barcelona, and that's a pretty long haul to get there in a timely manner from Atlanta).
You might also want to have him take another look at his official logo, and maybe have him run it through a spell-check or something, as there appears to be a typo/spello or two in there...
And, finally, let him know that he really doesn't have to fear H.T. -- that is really just Frank Luntz in drag...
Red Bugs (Chiggers) are easy to avoid ... tuck your pants/socks... they don’t crawl much (not like Ticks)
Once Chiggers find flesh they break their beak and you get to scratch. Now how the hell them lil buggers find my crotch I will never know... but CDC and Entomologists say that Chiggers just latch on and don’t crawl.
Ticks ... I hatem almost as much as I hate Obama
Chiggers (Red Bugs) ... I hatem almost as much as I hate Obama

As someone who watches the whole GA-FL thing from afar, I can only point and laugh!
You haven’t lived until you’ve been in a bar in Amelia on GA-FL weekend, with half the bar barking and half the bar doing the gator chomp thing with their arms.
Did I mention I never go to Amelia on GA-FL weekend?
Southern women are still women, as opposed to the Feminazis the NE seems to develop.
>>I suggest you tour underground Atlanta.
Not only no, but **** no.
Give my regards to Laz.
Salty meat grease? I haven’t heard that one, thanks. I definitely purchased a bottle of Off:)
We all like Laz just the way it is and thus calls our collective sanity into doubt. Have a good time.
Oh gawd, the Varsity is awful. Just chuck it in the toilet and bypass the middle man.
If it’s ribs you want, there’s no beating Fat Matt’s. That is, if it’s still around.
Don’t let him hit it.
If you’re going to Athens, keep going on over to Elberton and knock over the Georgia Guidestones. Start the apocalypse.
I don't even stop to buy gas around Atlanta!
I just hope you’re not a woman.
Gigity, gigity!
