    Its so often the way in life you get all excited and then the disappointment hits.

    I guess its just a case of that's how the cookie crumbles, even in Milano ;) .

    ...crumbles...

    Last week I made a BBs inspection in a infested apartment. The owner made a DIY treatment before calling me.
    While I was inspecting a mattress, he said:
    - Look...no BBs, I've killed them all by myself...-
    - Really? And what about these tiny cream things near the seams?-
    - Crumbles!-
    - Are you sure? Really sure? So now please explain me how it's possible that your crumbles have legs and can walk around...-
    - Oh... -

    ;-)

    This reminds me of the poem "This is Just to Say" by William Carlos Williams.

    Just transpose "plums" for "pepperidge farm cookies" and it kinda works.

    WCW: poet, physician, and occasional exterminator of bedbugs:

    KQ - as a woman I can tell you this. You got six cookies now, but you may not get any *ahem* "desert" for a while to come if you catch my drift...

    Just talkin' about sulphur as an old remedy for BBs in homes...
    My wife found something similar written in dialect of Milano (this way we don't go completely off topic from the title...:-))

    Se in cà vostra a gh'è i scimas, per mazzai bisògna fà inscì.
    Se spòsta la mobilia dai mur, se stenden i materass sora i cadregh,
    se ciappa ona tòlla con denter di tòcch de solfer commercial
    e se mett la tolla denter in de la stanza su un fornell con la brasca pizzada.
    Se saran ben port e finestra (anca i filidur), e dòpo 2 our se derva foeura con aria contraria.
    Per vess sicur che i scimas muriran tucc, bisogna rifà al mistèe almen per quater setimann.

    Translation:

    If you have bedbugs in your home, that's what you must do to kill them:
    Shift all furnitures from walls, stretch mattresses over seats
    Put a piece of sulphur in a tin can and place it on a burning brazier
    Doors and windows have to be perfectly closed and draughtproof. Wait for two hours and then make air recirculate
    To be sure to eliminate them at all, do it once a week for a month.

    EffeCi - in case you haven't tried them, here's what Americans think of as Milano cookies. It's trademarked and everything. Milano is not only the financial and fashion center of Italy, but a dangerously delicious cookie that threatens marriages. Hope this does not cause an international incident.

    Nobugs, Yes he does! for so many reasons. I'm not even a poetry geek. But that poem has lingered in my memory for decades ever since middle school.

    Thanks, brbugfighter! All credit for reporting on the WCW-bedbug connection must go to Renee of New York vs. Bed Bugs. I really enjoy her quirky finds.

    Mint Milano's are my absolute favorite! I agree with PmB....If hubby ate the last of those, well the only action that would be going on here would be "hall sex." (married people I'm sure know what I mean! lol)

    Here's the key KQ....get another bag of Milano's, put a bow on it and all will be good with the world once again!

    You're a brave man KQ...my hubby would never eat all the Milano's!! Lol!!

    Now Paula you have peaked my curiosity, it has been said I am kinky but I have never heard of "hall sex" despite looking in the encyclopedia of unusual sexual practices (yes one does exist).

    Maybe it is something that only gets communicated to married people, is it written on the back of a marriage license?

    Please put a confused deviant out of his misery, PM me if its too saucy to post online.

    You're too funny David.

    Hall sex is when you pass each other as you go down the hall and say, "F@&k you" no, "F&@k you" to eachother! (sorry if I'm pushing limits on speach here...but there's no other way to put it) Nobugs...please delete if needed.

    David, now aren't you glad you're not married?! Nobody likes hall sex!

    KW...Go and buy that box of Milano's before it's too late!!!

    Considering that today it's my 17th (happy) wedding anniversary and that consequently I consider myself extremely "old & wise":

    Killerqueen... buy two boxes of Milano, in order to avoid hall sex in next days too...;-)

    "Sulphur dioxide is a toxic gas and very dangerous, don't do it! " Sure, sure, but does it work? And where can I buy some, ahmm, I'm like an artist and can, ahhmm, use it for some, like, ahmmm creative expressionist dadaesque murals or something...(trails off timidly here)

    And Paula, I guess I work in a saucy office cos people say that quite a bit at my workplace.

    I don't have to be careful at all to avoid hall sex: my home it's a sort of open-space or loft with a bedroom at both ends, so there is not a hall...:-)

    Yes, we normally run a no-potty-mouth website, but your little symbols did all the work for you, Paula. Feel free to potty-mouth away. Especially when it's this funny.

    I LOVE the term "hall sex." I did not know what this was called!

    Yes Paula, I now understand.

    Fear not though I cant ever marry apart from in a Mormon chapel, bigamy is still a crime in most places.

    Congrats on the anniversary EffeCi, 17 years, you don;t even get that for pre meditated murder.

    Wow. I am new around here. You people are hilarious.

    I've been avoiding reading this thread in fear of finding out that someone had found BB in their Milano's.

    And I thought *I* was "losing it".

    I kid you not.... was just looking through the Shop Rite flyer and they have Pepperridge Farm cookies on sale!!!

    ....and then I see the small print "does not include Milanos" Shoot. They know when they have something good! I think I may just pick up a box anyway due to this thread. ;-)

Will any of us be able to look at a delicious Milano cookie again without thinking of hall sex????

    Ah...KQ I thought since you were gone so long from this thread that you were lost in the supermarket looking for Milano's!! Either that or bumbling words down that big hall of yours ! Lol (just busting..) But with the ice cream back I'm sure all is good in the world again!
    I must thank you for this post though. It's great.

    And YES!! Mint are the best!! Tried the raspberry once but your are right, there is absolutely no comparison. Gotta try them in the fridge and I'll let ya know.

    Adele....More than welcome to come for a cook out! Looks to be a good time, no? I have a new picnic table on the deck now! Yay! But I must warn ya.....it's pretty crazy here with three kids 4yrs and under! (No hall sex going on here!! We have twins to boot!)

    To the David's......I'm sure you've already seen a little jump in sales for stuffing in some free Milano's!! Good move guys! By years end Milano's will be knows as the new best aphrodisiac!!

    I for one, will never eat a Mint Milano again without a smurk on my face. Glad it was a good laugh. Thanks guys!

And I just said good night to my wife ... walked to the freezer and reached for my New York Super Fudge Chunk!!!! No lie lol . Off to sleep soon & will awake in just a few short hours to KILL BED BUGS!! =) life is simple again.

    Well, if it's Super Fudge Chunk that keeps ya going, you have a smart lady there to keep the fridge stocked!! There's definitely some truth about what they say about the way to a man's heart....

    You know ... I often think about that. Not to boast... but I'm guessing I have done about 1000 treatments or so in the last 4 1/2 years .... These have all been in a 15/20 square mile radius of each other. Let’s say .. I fail at 500 of them .... Imagine the number of people meeting other people in all the common places .... do you get the number of chances this bug has?

    Now ... not just me but a few more good PCO's cut the success numbers in half ..... Imagine how bad NY would be if that many treatments failed.

    PS. Yeah ... I love the flavor ... I have it about 2 times a month. =) Should I reach for the cookies next? lol

    I love original Milano cookies. My favorite ice creams are Moose Tracks or chocolate chip mint or Breyer's chocolate, or Ben & Jerry's Heath Bar. And I love orange sherbet.
