Vampire Repellant?

I found that having the "Mother-in-Law" around will deter EVERYTHING---Including ME!

The last couple of summers we have camped at LaPush WA - the real home of the vampires!! Actually they are pretty acommodating folks! They really appreciate new blood in their community.

This thread should be moved to "Technology Corner" or "Do it yourself Modifications."

After all, we are discussing "How."

clothes dryer sheets....Bounce works best.

I keep one in my underwear and have never had a problem with Vampires while camping.

Just exactly where are you expecting vampires to bite?

The vampires in our campground were pretty low-tech. They didn't even have cell phones. I liked the suggestion about cutting a hole in the ice but these were swamp vampires. They hung like a misma over the sawgrass in early evening impervious to the snapping of the alligators below. Every gentle breeze resulted in low moaning sounds that almost obliterated the noise from the neighbor's generator. Dog walking was out of the question so Phideaux had to do his business under the TT. Please send list of recommended modifications ASAP as we are leaving on Monday. lizzie

The Ice Hole works equally as well with Polar Bears. I was in the Navy for 20 plus years and once when we were thousands of miles from no where, we had a terrible infestation of Vampire pirates. The CO was a wise old seaman and had dealt with this before, He ordered all the engine room crew, (Snipes) to hang their socks on the port yardarm. Worked like a charm, the only hitch was the deck apes. They wanted to put their socks on the Starboard Yard arm. The poor old Signalman had no other choices other than just hanging it over the fan tail, (Stern).

Our dog will lift his leg on anything and anyone that stands still long enough. Vampires hate that.

Just got word from our favorite campground. Other campers report that the vampire issue has been resolved by copious applications of trysohardameanvampriusnotatall, tincture of iodine, and vinegar. The raccoons have a strange glazed look and the squirrels are white, but nary a sign of a vampire. Many thanks to all of you who came through with your sage advice and words of wisdom. I feel so warm and fuzzy inside knowing that you are There for me. Look for me on I-75S on Monday. lizzie

Please be aware that excessive imbibing of alcoholic beverages may cause visual sightings in one's mind of Werewolves, Zombies, Vampires, Mothers-In-Law, Ex-Wives. lawyers etc.

If this occurs, then one should consider ending it all by jumping into the same icehole that the Zombie fell into!

But, sadly, one may then temporarily experience sightings of Giant Octupi, Squids, Jacques Cousteau and, dare I say, Jaws!

I'm not really sure about this, with all the alcoholic beverages that I've
"imbibed" in my years,(many times to excess),I've never once envisioned my mother-in-law, (although sometimes, it would be hard to distinguish her from the others)and having never had an Ex-Wife, I wouldn't recognize one if I saw her. ;)
