You guys will kill me but

[Hornin Hong Kong]

I caught a praying mantis, brought him inside my house and put him in this big orchid plant I have and have been feeding him bugs.

I named him Sergio.

My wife doesn't understand my obsession.

The very first thing I did was grab a spider and put it in the orchid I have to see what would happen and Sergio cocked his head to the right and with a lighting slash of his forepaws ripped the spider in two.

He then ate the abdomen like a watermelon.

Sergio seems perfectly satisfied to sit in the little orchid jungle eating bugs once a day. He hangs upside down and doesnt move until it's time to kill.

My wife seriously asked "Are praying mantises predators?"

I said "This one is".

Now we are going to kick OU's *** no matter what this year but well, I'm just saying.

One of our clients lives on the 28th floor in NYC. Just a couple of days ago she told me that they found a five inch praying mantis on her terrace. They've been feeding it ants. She said she has no idea whether she flew, climbed or was born there.

I for one welcome our mantis overlords.

Got to love the mantis. When we lived outside the city, we had them all over the place. Very interesting to watch.

They give me the creeps, but if they help us win football games, I'm all for it.

You should neuter Sergio so you don't have to worry about any post-sex-head-eating by the female.

OK, you need to get a good sized spider, paint an OU emblem on its abdomen and video tape it for us.

Any creature that prays can't be all bad.

Hope it you didn't feed Larry the Spider to Sergio.

 

[Hornin Hong Kong]

I'll always love Larry but the fact remains that Sergio ate a larry sized spider like I eat a skittle
