Today I wandered upstairs to take some mail to the mailbox before the postman came, I didn't want to drive to the post office again (it's almost a daily occurence for work) so I was in a hurry, but stopped dead in my tracks when I saw this...
That's right, I quietly snuck up on the fiend, put the cup over him and scooped him up into the cup while blocking the opening with the bowl, I then ran like a madwoman outside where I proceeded to huck the cup and bowl as far from my person as I could get them! And it worked!!! I thought for sure I'd have to leave the cup and bowl on the lawn all day but nope, the hopper finally left and I was able to throw the bowl and cup away! Hooray for me! I was my own brave hero today!

I'm with you - grasshoppers are the devil's insect! :) You're funny! p.s. we should come see you since we live one street away!!
I am that way only with spiders.
I HATE grasshoppers too. Seriously - they are in my top 5 most hated creatures ever!!! I would have been too afraid to even come close to it.
That is way to funny!! I'm the same way with spiders! But I really don't like grasshoppers either!
I totally agree with you! I hate them too. When I was young, boys put them in my hair and they have creeped me out ever since!
