Kids found a giant f'n bee hive in one of our trees. Sumbitch is the size of a basketball. It's a cool looking one though. It will be too bad when I have to destroy it. Comedy of errors will ensue I'm sure. Pics will follow as my luck with this shit isn't good and if there is a chance my wife and snap a pic of me running and hiding from a swarm of bees, she'll take it.

be careful! try one of those powerful sprays on it before you knock it down.

I'm going in double fisted with that stuff first.

That's what she said!

oh my god!

Dylan- looking into that. Problem is I do not think we have any keepers local or close. We have plenty of meth labs but no bee keepers. Plus they are starting to bug the kiddos

NOOOO!!!

Don't destroy it.  We need all the pollinators we can get.  Plus, you are putting yourself at risk.  Call a local beekeeper and they will gladly remove it for you free of charge.  That's free honey for him and more fruit on your zukes and cukes for you.

I really hope Kohler reads this before anything crazy goes does.  :(

Dido. save the bees! Not sure how true it is, but they say if you leave them alone they'll usually leave you alone, unless you try to destroy them that is.   Try here: http://www.bees-on-the-net.com/beehive-removal.html

Looks like a hornets' nest.  I did a science project in third grade about hornets.  Gosh, I remember being smart back then.  Right now, I can't think of a single fact about hornets.  :-/

Love Dogg, I'm sorry to tell you that there will be a pop quiz on hornets at your workplace this afternoon.  Good luck.   ;)

I agree though, that looks like a hornets' nest, doesn't it?

I foresee a scene from Tommy Boy being re-enacted here....

That hive looks gigantic  :o

I had to destroy it. I wasn't your happy friendly little bees. These were angry as fuck hornets.

That would be awesome. They have a new one in their group. He's ultra religious. If you want to be proud of your religion good for you, but when you start Bible thumping in the office and watching a DVD of a sermon during work hours, I think you're full of shit. Thankfully I have earphones at work still.

i tripped on the cord boom...and my external hard drive is done for--all my music gone, it took me so long to reload that once i got my new laptop last spring. it couldn't have happened at a worse time. Sigh

That really is too bad Penny. My CDs are all boxed up somewhere & I'm finding it really hard not being able to listen to whatever I want, whenever I want so I know how you must be feeling...

If you need copies of stuff, holla. More then willing to share to replenish the stock.

yeah i guess if you drop it/it falls somehow while it's ON, it's a bigger difference (i always kept mine on, but you shouldn't just in case something like this happens) the IS dept had it all day and said there was nothing they could do about it, even though it's protected by that metal-- i know it's not tragic like all the other stuff going on right now, but it's my own personal music tragedy. thanks for your condolences.  ;)

Ya know- the external drive casing might be dead but the drive inside could still be salvageable!  I work with my dad fixing computers and such- we do a lot of data recovery.  You should pop the case open and get the drive out- they sell external drive empty shells that you might be able to use your drive in.

thanks, i have most everything, it'll just take time to load it back on.

caporal--i thought of that but they are telling me it'll cost at least 2/$300, especially around here, to take it to one of those repair places. here they won't even look at your comp unless you pay the initial $150 fee. thanks though
