tell me about it. I have a friend, an elderly man who unfortunatly passed away recently. He was an avid bee-keeper. Whether it was disease, or mites, or wasps, something always seemed to be after his bees.

Here is something interesting. I might be showing my age, (or maturity :tonguecheek: ), but I have always had a thing for tops.

There are several carbide canons on youtube.

The Job of a Speleogist:

"If I didn't have my helmet, I could hit into something with my head, my skull could crack open and my brain could fall out," says the subject of this hilarious mockumentary about cave exploration. My Job II is an homage to low-budget, home-made filmmaking.

I've seen a documentary about this and usually bees surround the hornets and start shaking their little bodies to create heat till they cook the hornet.

It gets worse.....

David Hasselhoff: The Musical :rofl: :notlistening:
July 25, 2006

David Hasselhoff is to star in a musical based on his life. [think he'll lipsinc that as well?] The show will be inspired by the 54-year-old's career, US soap opera The Young and The Restless and the songs of Teddy Pendergrass.

Hasselhoff, who has battled alcoholism, is quoted by website
Celebrityweek.com as saying: "I am doing a heart-rendering set on my life and the mistakes I have made.

"It sounds like a bad joke, but it is really going to be a good
show...totally campy."

He added: "It's written by the same people who wrote Bette Midler's show and produced by the people who produced Chicago in London."

The production - simply called David Hasselhoff: The Musical - will open in Melbourne, Australia, before moving to America. The actor - who is due to release his autobiography in September - said: "If it ends up in Las Vegas, how great would that be? I want to entertain people. Sammy Davis Junior was my hero."

It cannot be as bad as *watching* Leonard Nimoy singing "Bilbo Baggins". Scary thing is: I actually have two--count 'em two audio recordings of this--one on bootleg tape and one on Dr. Demento CD.

The following link leads to a potentially disturbing photograph of David Hasselhoff. It is technically safe for work. He is bare chested and wearing a swimsuit. Emphasis is directed towards the twig and berries area. Send the kids to bed. Wait until Grandma is distracted by reruns of Matlock. If you are proned to nightmares, beware. Otherwise, enjoy! LINK
