Scorpions in the Bay State? No Thanks!
Living in Massachusetts has its perks, and one of them is that we don’t have to worry about deadly creatures lurking around every corner. Sure, our winters can be brutal, but even the harshest blizzards won’t kill us if we take necessary precautions. And let’s be real, our wildlife is pretty tame – black bears are basically just big dogs that’ll leave us alone if we don’t bother them.
But all that changed recently when a woman was stung by a scorpion at Logan Airport. Yes, you read that right – a scorpion! In Boston! According to reports, the woman in her 40s was collecting her bags in Terminal E when the incident occurred. She was rushed to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, but still, it’s a scary thought.
Scorpion stings can cause a range of symptoms, from burning and drooling to muscle twitches and abdominal pain. And in some cases, they can be life-threatening. So, it’s no wonder that air travel, which is already a nightmare, just got a whole lot worse.
Flying has become a necessary evil, with overbooked flights, delays, cramped seats, and mediocre food. And let’s not forget the Emotional Support animals and, of course, Jack Jones. It’s a far cry from the glamorous travel experience we see in old movies. As Dennis Miller once quipped, air travel has become so terrible that even terrorists don’t want to hijack planes anymore.
Now, we have to add scorpion stings to the list of things to worry about when flying. And to make matters worse, officials don’t know if the scorpion has been caught or not. You’d think they’d be searching high and low for the little critter, but apparently not.
As someone who has to fly soon, this news is particularly unsettling. I hate flying enough without having to worry about scorpions on the loose. It’s time for Massport officials to take action and find that scorpion before it’s too late. We don’t want Terminal E to become a breeding ground for poisonous scorpions!
