I'd just like to share, and this is mostly for the benefit of The Muse, that I just heard on an old episode of Sanford & Son, the following:
"... and $19.95 for a pair of pointy-toed boots"And there you have an example of the origin of the name, "roach-killers", a term which The Muse introduced me to in the aisles of DSW last year. Nice!
"Pop, what do you need with a pair of pointy-toed boots?"
"To kill all them roaches in the corner."

i love the roachkillers... they're my favorite! :) and they serve dual purposes as you've demonstrated.

Oh, I don't even want to think about roach-killers...makes me think about roaches in general. Yucky!
I noticed that you're linking to my blog but I don't recall seeing a comment from you before. Don't just be a lurker! :)
