Gal-Lop-E-Gus Snail?

Saturday night quickie conversation with Alex:

Door opens. Alex pokes his head into the living room. "Hey Mama! Is there any such thing as a Gal-Lop-E-Gus Snail?"

"A what?"

"A Gal-Lop-E-Gus Snail?"

"Son, I have never heard of a Gal-Lop-E-Gus Snail. What do you have?"

And there, clinging to his arm was......



A SLUG!!


Gross! Where does this child find all of these creepy crawlies? I can handle the frogs and lizards, but please leave the slugs outside!
