I had a scorpion climb up the inside of my pantleg at my uncle's horse ranch in Abeliene. I felt it about 6" from my crotch. (loose pants) I didn't know it was a scorpion, thought it was just a bug, a roach or something. I slapped at it and it stung me. THEN, I knew it was a scorpion! I started stomping that leg like a crazy man! It finally fell out of my pants, but not before it had struck me four more times. I took some aspirin, knowing that Texas scorpions just aren't that dangerous. My leg swelled up so bad, I had to cut the pants off, but I lived. Scorpions are some freaky, evil looking things. I don't know what to think about a God that would make scorpions..
