>> Of course, chasing flying bugs at night with a bucket and a flashlight is pretty darn therapeutic!


It is! LOL
This is OT but I have to tell you this story real quick.
Dr. Breene who was head of the American Tarantula Society was at our house once 5 years or so ago because he was in town to do a program for my college's vet-tech continuing education seminar.
He showed us how you can find wolf spiders at night. You put a flashlight at your temple just behind your eye & turn it on, then scan the ground. Wolf spider eyes sparkle an emerald green color that you can see when you hold the flashlight that way. So we're all outside running around the yard with flashlights yelling "there's one!"
There just happened to be a couple of policemen at the house 2 doors down. Apparently the woman down there had called them for some reason.. anyway when they left her house they drove by here very slowly staring at us.. they must've thought we are INSANE!!!
LOL
After that happened I really haven't ever felt weird about catching turtle food under the porch light at night! hee heeeeee
