Squirmy Wormy

Worms are quite possibly the stickiest, slimiest and sickening organisms to prawl under and on our sidewalks. Due to the rain showers today, all the worms were on the go and in their full suit of 9 inch attractiveness. I can sometimes stand them if I'm planting flowers and happen to come across them. On the other hand, when I'm trying to rush somewhere to get out of the rain when it's dark out, I hate these creepy crawlers getting in the way of me tip-toeing around campus. Worms should serve two purposes and two purposes only. Number one, they should be implanted in dirt pudding for that extra flavor at the end of your dessert. Number two, worms can be used for decoration around this lovely Halloween time! Of course, they are vital to the cycle of life, and our soil would most likely suck without them, but hypothetically, if they served no purpose, I would not mind banishing them from planet Earth. I think the people that love and or used to eat worms are just plain out of their minds. Finally, on my last complaint, I hated opening them with a scalpel in high school biology class and pinning their sides to a wax plate. Gross!
