I walked out of work one night in a blowing monsoon dust storm, not looking forward to hopping on the motorcycle and trying to stay upright with 40mph winds, when I stepped on a sticky wad of crumpled up paper. With my eyes squinted shut to try to keep the dust out, I reached down to pull it off the sole of my boot and..... "OUCH!" It wasn't a wad of paper; it was one of those pretty little beasts. I had to ride home holding the motorcycle handlebars with a hand shot full of prickers.

I can't even imagine how much fun the guy in the picture is having!
