Retraction/Tick Removal.........................

Instead of just erasing the tick removal post and pretending that nothing happened I'll fess up and post this retraction. Although it was well intended it turns out to be a hoax. I should have checked with Snopes.com first thing before posting. That's what I'll do from now on. Snopes is pretty good, everybody should go there if they've got a suspicion or two. D'oh! The link is over there (under tools) on the right! I guess I should read my blog more often!!!
