The only drawback of having millipedes as pets |
is that many people are afraid of millipedes, for no apparent reason.
Because of unfounded fear of millipedes, my aunt won't take care of
Millie and Mollie when I go away, so I have to leave them with the
exotic animals vet, which isn't cheap.

are more independent than some pets.

The biggest problem is that they require water and a high humidity
level, or else they will become dehydrated and die. I mist their tank
twice a day to keep it humid enough.

June 16, 1971
Mama gave birth
to a hell raisin' heavanly son.
See the doctor tried to smack me
but I smacked him back,
My first words were "thug for life"
and "Papa pass the Mac."
I'm bustin' on these motha fuckas ballin'
Listen you can hear my mini 14 callin'.
From out the window of my drop top
I got my glock cocked
bustin' at niggas
when will it stop ?
Now tell me are you scared of the dark?
Can't close my eyes I see visions
And even with this thug livin'
will I escape prison?
Penitentiary chances was an all day thang
The only way to advance
and if you slang
Then you'd better have your nikes on
Cause when we fight
it's in the middle of the night with no lights on.
Hey!!
There must be a God cause I feel lucky,
Paranoid out my mind
this motha fucka's tryin' to rush me.
Am I goin' to jail?
Look at me bailin'
Commin' out the court house
all about mail and bank
Never die
be a hustler mothafuckas
And makin' thugs out you suckas.
From the cradle to the grave.

Look at me bailin'
"The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48"
Bail Bail, v. t. OF. bailler to give, to deliver, fr. L.
bajulare to bear a burden, keep in custody, fr. bajulus he
who bears burdens.
1. To deliver; to release. Obs.
1913 Webster
Ne none there was to rescue her, ne none to bail.
--Spenser.
1913 Webster
2. (Law)
(a) To set free, or deliver from arrest, or out of
custody, on the undertaking of some other person or
persons that he or they will be responsible for the
appearance, at a certain day and place, of the person
bailed.
1913 Webster
Note: The word is applied to the magistrate or the surety.
The magistrate bails (but admits to bail is commoner) a
man when he liberates him from arrest or imprisonment
upon bond given with sureties. The surety bails a
person when he procures his release from arrest by
giving bond for his appearance. --Blackstone.
1913 Webster
(b) To deliver, as goods in trust, for some special object
or purpose, upon a contract, expressed or implied,
that the trust shall be faithfully executed on the
part of the bailee, or person intrusted; as, to bail
cloth to a tailor to be made into a garment; to bail
goods to a carrier. --Blackstone. Kent.
1913 Webster
so, shouldn't he say "i'm being bailed" rather than "i'm bailing"?

bail is also (probably unofficially) short for "bail out", which means to
leave, especially a harmful situation. you might say "i'm bailing" when
leaving a boring party. or more appropriately you might say it when
reconsidering a bank heist or dangerous activity.

many say "i posted bond" to refer to the security given in exchange for
release from jail. however, i believe "i posted bail" would also be
correct. "i'm being bailed" would be awkward, but probably is technically
correct. rap music tends to break rules in order to flow better.
i've quoted Merriam-Webster below.
Main Entry: 3bail
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, custody, bail, from Middle French, custody, from
baillier to have in charge, deliver, from Medieval Latin bajulare to
control, from Latin, to carry a load, from bajulus porter
1 : the temporary release of a prisoner in exchange for security given for
the due appearance of the prisoner
2 : security given for the release of a prisoner on bail
3 : one who provides bail
Main Entry: 6bail
Function: transitive verb
Etymology: Anglo-French baillier, from French
: to deliver (personal property) in trust to another for a special purpose
and for a limited period
Main Entry: bail out
Function: intransitive verb
1 : to parachute from an aircraft
2 : to abandon a harmful or difficult situation; also : LEAVE, DEPART

i'm wrong. the automatic (or potentially automatic) model is the 18 and
18C. i remember seeing on the Matrix Reloaded DVD where the stunt
coordinator claimed he had an automatic Glock and that it was almost
priceless. i believe he was full of ***** about its rarity.
the 17, 18, and 19 are all fire 9 mm luger rounds. the 22 and 23 issued by
the FBI are 40 caliber.
