and it did this to me more than once,


even worse than the guy on the pic. I was watering the plants last week and something stung me in a finger when I was over the cactii, I first taught I touched a thorn. Then the finger started to swell and itch, aww crap, again. Run to the fridge for the anti-histamine, but too late. Next morning the hand looked like a blown-up rubber glove. Back to normal after two days.

Well,
Have you seen one of these.....
