Dearest Botogol
Do you think it is conservationally wise and ethical to smite so many insects? We at Buglife are beset with grave misgivings.
Nonetheless, we wish you all the best with your trip and pause only to wonder why you store pate in your helmet. Was Paddington Bear your role model when you were young?
While the very thought of ingesting a bug might repulse you, it is important to understand the nutritional value of insects. The reason why the indigenous people of Japan, West Africa, Indonesia and Australia have traditionally included insects as a food source is due to the high protein content of the little critters.
You should therefore feel free to indulge.
BTW Standing naked in the wind and/or melting into the sun is not recommended.

Or, picking up your last line, as Robert Frost once said:
"The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep."
Little bastards deserve it -
"Exterminate all the brutes!"
[Joseph Conrad]
