your Monoku brought a smile to my face....the slugs leaving skid marks (burning rubber) was genius and creative. Have to fave! Enjoy your evening, Sara

They don't exactly match the speed of sound, but they get where they're going and leave a trail of slime in their wake... yucky stuff.

Hello John, being an outdoor person I loved your reflection of slugs and it really did bring a huge smile to my face. - Blessings, Daniel

Clever contrast of beauty and ugly. Just watched Ben-Hur again. This is a bit slower ;) Like the title too…so fun for a monoku!
