Elstad 9 Posted May 10, 2014 Known as the Sphinx Moth or Hawk's Moth, these moths are super tankers that fly from blossom to blossom. They are especially fond of the fragrant flowers of Sacred Datura in the southwest with which they have a symbiotic relationship in that the Datura contains a narcotic to which these moths are addicted. They have an extremely long proboscis that enables them to delve deep into the bottom of their drug souce. ... Such an intrepid model she is. Aren't you glad that I didn't ask YOU to do this. Happily she shares my view that one must suffer for Art. ... Thanks for the Look and the Write! creepiest viewed large... Link to comment

gungajim 75 Posted May 10, 2014 Ray, Last night I rewatched a 1968 western, Once upon a time in the West by sergio leone (sp?). There is a scene in which the bad guy is trying to take a siesta and a fly keeps landing right on the edge of his lips. Leone extends the scene for 3 minutes with an amusing, unanticipated climax.
