Dave's Grab Bag: Ick.

Dave, a fellow blogger from Dayton, talks about his recent, unfortunate encounter with a slug. His story reminds me of the occasion I met a slug. I posted my comments to his blog, but I'll add them here, too:

I noticed the slugs outside our home a couple years ago myself.

I had just walked our garbage containers to the curb so that they could be emptied by whomever in the City of Dayton has hired to do it (honestly I can't remember).

After I had done this, I noticed that there was a slug on the handle! I'm glad I'd used a different part of the handle to cart the cans to the curb.

I went inside and returned with the salt shaker. I doused the slug, and it had melted into oblivion by morning.
