• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Poison Ivy?

My evil dark nemesis was chiggers.

Anytime you're around livestock....better watch out! I've had my crotch, armpits, inside of my elbows and behind my knee's infested in the damn things. 3 - 4 days of agonized itching. Again, something you can simply spray off with soap and water.....

My last encounter was Ranger School in North Georgia where we were helicoptered into an LZ on a farm. We moved through a couple of pastures and then up a ridge in the woods. When we stopped I promplty stripped all my clothes off and doused myself in water, as well as shake my uniform and T-shirt out. Everyone just sort of stared....but a couple hours later I was much happier than they -- even though I still had some, not nearly as many.
