Perhaps another case of ASD (Attention Surplus Disorder), I was sorting my Butterfly Valley photos and trying to make sense of a couple of garden plants sighted in downtown Quincy (see previous post), when a cute green bug walked across my notepad. I grabbed a handy marker and let the bug crawl up on it for a photo. As it kept trying to get to the backside to hide I kept taking photos while rotating the marker, hoping at least one would be sharp. When I checked the photos on my monitor, this one is the only one that was sharp. I enjoyed the irony of the fact that the label on the marker is a lie. The odor was quite apparent, and undoubtedly not healthy. I wondered if it was supposed to act like some air fresheners which actually deaden your sense of smell rather than actually neutralize the odors. To me, that is a horrendous fraud and intrusion. In any case, the label applied more accurately to the bug. It had no apparent odor at all.
