TShakazBlackRoots Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Everytime it rains, I find a huge Toad (or is it Bull frog?) in my toilet!! Believe me, it's shocking. Other times, millions of tiny ants raid the bathroom. A visitor who sat on the toilet bowl during one of the numerous powercuts has a 'painful' story to tell. By the time he felt the bites, tiny ants were all over him!! Before I enter my bed, I first give my room a 'Secret Service level' check for all sorts of univited guests. Hoping I never find termites all over my bass!!

Hoping I never find termites all over my bass!! I think I would definitely move! The weirdest thing I found in my house was a frog in the middle of my family room on its back dead. I don't know how it got in the house but, I have four cats and I'm sure that is how it meet its demise. Once it stopped moving the cats must have gotten bored and left it there. At, least they didn't disembowel it on my carpet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moot Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 I got lotsa' stories 'bout this here! Tarantula under my pillow - totally freaked! I hate spiders! Stung by a scorpion lurking in my towel - Big headrush! Lasted for hours. Carpenter ant nest in the attic. They only come out at night. Currently beseiged by thousands of sugar ants in the kitchen. happens every year for a couple weeks. I know a drummer who is an exterminator. His name is Arnold - no lie! Anyway, he was nice enough to tell me that no matter how much you spray, there is no guarantee. The perks of country livin'.

tarkus Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 a burglar. Came home from work one night. Saw my basement doors open. Walked into the basement - heard movement upstairs. Went up stairs (aluminum baseball bat in hand). Guy jumped out the front door as I made it into the living room. Cops were called - nothing of value taken - The gear was all locked up. Dope didn't know I had about $5,000 in gear a room away. Turned out to be a crackhead that broke into three or four houses on my block that week.

kad Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Do ghost stories count?? One day I took a few toys out of our closet to give to our 1 year old (at the time) to play with. Him and I were the only two people home at the time. I went into the other room briefly and when I returned, my son was exactly where I left him but all of the toys were gone. After looking around for a while, I looked back in the closet where I got the toys and there they were - stacked neatly on the very top shelf!!! That's the only "paranormal" experience I've had in this house, but my wife and daughters always insist that "someone" is there watching them. The odd thing is that it's a brand new house - we just built it a few years ago... Kirk Reality is like the sun - you can block it out for a time but it ain't goin' away...

butcherNburn Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Oh TShakazBlackRoots... what can I say but you do keep things interesting.. Freakiest thing I found in my house... besides me? Half the cheese off a slice of pizza in the toe of my sneaker. I was eating a slice, with only a minute to spare before heading to school (I had 28 minutes to run 3 blocks, shower, put on a shirt and tie (sometimes pants), eat dinner, and run another 2 blocks to meet my ride to school. I did this for 2 years). It fell off and I couldn't find it anywhere.. Being a neatfreak this disturbed me.. I didn't think I'd find it a month later inside (way inside) one of my old pairs sneakers... I do have that luck though. I once had a meatball roll out of a sandwhich UP my arm, and in my shirt pocket.. the only consolation was I had witnesses to prove my claim. If you think my playing is bad, you should hear me sing!

MercenaryBassist Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 I was living in northern Idaho a few years ago and we came home to a cougar on the front porch. It took off as soon as we pulled in the driveway. And there always were black bears at the local trash dumping site. Or then there was the time living in California when I woke up in the middle of the night because a 2 inch cockroach was nibbling on my eyebrow. Will play bass for food.

dhurstlmt Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 I grew up in South America, so my stories are endless. We used to have frogs in the toilet all the time. They would get scared and jump when you sat down. exciting. We also had tree frogs in our shower and they would jump around happily while you were divested. Also exciting. I put on my pants one day only to find out there was a scorpion in them. I did find out the hard way, but the family jewels were safe. I have been to an outhouse with a poisonous snake coiled under the seat. I have sat down in an outhouse only to feel excessive wind from below. I moved and two bats flew out. Tarantulas and other large spiders were all over the place. We caught a bird tarantula outside our house. It was about 15 inches in diameter. Fun. I could go on forever. I would appreciate, however only getting to tell the stories like this that I already have and not get any new ones. Let your speech be better than silence, or be silent. For those who believe, no explanation is necessary. For those who do not, none will suffice. "Rindase!" "Rendirme?
