The two of you should stretch a net across the dining room table........ either that or solo cups strategically placed around the house for skill shots. Of course you realize since I do this too........ I was thinking....... we are ahead of everyone else when the murder hornets arrive

Which is more satisfying: 1) Wacking them and watching them go a country mile 2) Wacking them so hard the break in half 3) Wacking them in just the right spot where they get stuck in the racket, squirming for freedom

Yes...I was a former carpenter bee whacking champion. tons at my old house.

May 24, 20205 yr Oh yeah, good stuff. The other day while taking the dogs out i saw one crawl into its hole in our deck. Got a ladder and filled it up. I like to think it died with its children. Also, after a week our trap has 8-10 bees in it.
May 25, 20205 yr one of my sons (nicko) just moved to Utah to begin his collegic life (non mormon). Chickie and I are watching the 2011 Giants game (week 11) when Chickie's phone goes off. Hey it's Nick! and a video chat begins. He's showing us around the off campus not frat house he shares with six other guys when there's a clear knock on the door at his place. Nicko heads to the door, opens it and it's four cops. They ask if one if his roommates is there and can they come in. He's naive and says sure. Nicko puts the phone down and Chickie gives me two looks: 1st look....where you mouth WTF to someone to keep from cracking up. And then reading my sh**-eating grin... 2nd look is the look of death because she knows damn well i'm about to loudly say ''THEY CAN'T LOOK IN THE BATHROOM WITHOUT A WARRNANT'' yeah, it was my son but the goof-monkey must be appeased.
