That was funny as hell. I was in tears I was laughing so hard. That is why no army in the world will ever invade the U.S. I am stationed in Germany where they have a lot of laws against fun stuff like that so thank you, those pics stand as a reminder to all the things I miss about home. Do you mind if I send that page to all the guys over here, I think they would get a kick out of it.

I don't care who you send it to, it isn't me. However it is totally something my friends and I would do after having a couple beers!! I think that is why I like it so much!

Pecker heads, coulda called any one of hundreds of bee keepers and they would have come and got them for free, taken em home and set em up in a hive. Wasps, hornets, yellow jackets I will kill, honey bees are so inoffensive thats like hurting a puppy or kitten.

I grew up in farm country and the keepers who worked the farms and orchards gave us kids an education. While it's a really scary feeling the first time you have 2 or 3 on your bare arm it gets easier once you get a few hundred or so. It is just a matter of resisting that primal urge to 'twitch' or 'sharply shake' them off. I just could never do it without the headpiece, they would get near my eyes, ears and nostrils and I'd get a tad hinky.

Hah! Instead of an array of humorous photos, you would have been linked to a news report of two bodies recovered from a backyard.
If you want to kill them without the risk of having to choose death by sting or by fire, the professionals use soapy water to drown them. They do not want to expose the africanized population to pesticides and make them resistant. No bee has resistance to drowning if the water has a surfactant in it, like those common to most detergents. Some Palmolive in the hose-end sprayer will do a number on them - although you would want to be wearing a bee suit when you start.
One summer, years ago, I was with a crew excavating in the backyard of the Watkins' Woolen Mill State Historic Site, north of Kansas City, MO. It was a 'living interpretation' site so they had people dressed up, and they had sheep and chickens, an orchard, and several hives of honey bees. The orchard was east of the backyard and the hives were on the west side of the backyard. We were there for 8 weeks, 5 days a week. After two weeks we had to request that the hives be moved to the east side. Two or three times a day some bee would come along, either on its way to the orchard or back to the hive, and smack right into you. A couple of times one of the little buggers hit me in the neck and fell down my shirt. Fortunately, I've never been allergic.

My son was driving his bosses pickup home, 60mph air conditoning turned on [vent windows open backwards] when a big bumble bee shot in and went right up has shorts. He was on Interstate 80 and started bobbing and weaving, state trooper pulled em over figuring he had a DUI. My son stopped, jumped out and dropped shorts right there on the interstate. Basically moooned the trooper :D
If the trooper had not seen the bee fly out he woulda busted him..

Speaking of Africkanized killers. Did anyone see that Crock hunter knock off dude who went looking for them in So Cal or Arizona? I think it was a show on the most dangorus bugs or something like that. Anyway he met some dude who was raising them and he let the guy put some smelly stuff on him and the bee's clung to him like that swing set. Only thing was if one stung him, the rest would start and it only takes 50 stings to kill you. He had like 10,000 bee's on him at the time.

That's funnay raht thar :roflmao:
I had a big ol' bumble bee hit me right in the left shoulder at 70mph. Hurt like hell. I didn't know what it was right off. I thought somebody had thrown a rock at me. About half mile down the road my left nip lit up like a super titty twister. I let out a howl and reached into my shirt with my right hand. The nip hurt like heck but I didn't find anything wrong. Take my hand out and the shirt falls back against my nip and I get hit again -- right in the same damn spot. She hit me three times before I figured out that she'd fallen into my shirt pocket. That damn nip hurt for days.

Didn't see that, but I did catch the honey bee bikini on the Guinness show. I was hoping they'd paint the stuff right onto her, but they painted it onto the bikini she was wearing. Nothing to see here - move along.
