"If a mosquito that bites you then goes and bites Lather, are you blood brothers?" The humans would be blood brothers only with the mosquito. The relationship between the two humans thus bitten would be similar to that of two individuals who are not otherwise related, but have a cousin in common -- they are not actually related, but are "shirttail relations." Thus the most correct term would be "shirttail blood cousins." I think. "Mosquitos don't bite me. I must have no enemies. I thought I just smelled funny or something." Same was true of me regarding all insects until around age 40 (I have decided Jack Benny had it right...39 forever! Regardless, I've decided to NEVER turn 40 again!). Back to mosquitos: I understand that B complex vitamins don't smell or taste good to them. I think you must smell funny to them. They still leave me alone, but for some reason beyond my comprehension spiders think I'm quite tasty. Must be the grape soda floats with cookies-n-cream ice cream. PCM
