Are they bigger than the Palmetto bugs in Florida?

[nickels]

I don't know what a palmetto bug looks like. They're about the size of a small dump, and half of them have wings.

I'm pretty sure they're actually aliens, with a longterm plan to take over the planet.

Here is what they look like and they fly! I have seen them as big as 2 inches long. I knew of a local friend that got one in his ear and had to go to the doctor to have it surgically removed.

Why do I have that Monty Python Spam song in my head now?

[nickels]

I totally pwned Trivial Pursuit one day when I answered that spam stands for "Spiced Ham."

Specially Processed American Meat is what I heard and you can get tasty Spam Musubi at most 7-11 stores as well as assorted gas stations.
