So...

We're driving back from AZ Sunday afternoon. It's probably about 3:30 and we're 25 miles from the boarder. True to my style, I have the window down and my fingers touching the roof of the car.

Then it happens.

An event that triggers a series of mishaps.

A large, black object hurls itself into my wrist causing a great deal of pain and burning--like a piece of hot coal had smashed into me. The thing fell into my lap and on to the floor where my recently de-sandaled feet rested (this is an important note for later).

"Ow!" I say.

"What happened?" Ken says.

"I think a bee smashed into my wrist. Look, it's turning red. Only problem is, it fell onto the floor."

"I don't think it was a bumble bee. That would have really hurt and messed up your wrist."

"I didn't say bumble bee. Good lord! The thing was big, but not massive! ...and it did hurt my wrist."

I whiped off the guts and put my arm back on the door to rest it...then decided to pass out/go to sleep.

Car seats are not comfortable. One must move quite a bit to become comfortable...but, when one has been "smashed into" by a bee which falls onto the floor, one should replace one's shoes....

I was not that one.

So, about 4:30, after much uncomfortableness, I put my left foot down as I sleepily adjust my position...and scream quite loudly.

"Pull over! Pull over!" I yell. "I stepped on the bee!"

Yes. I stepped on the recently deceased bee that I had watched slam to its death against my arm then tumble to the floor beneath me, stinger still intact. The stinger was now partially in my foot.

Finally, Ken pulls over to the side of the raod to assist me in the removal of said stinger. It's a tiny sliver, but it feels like a huge piece of...well....glass, actually. He then removes the errant dead bee from the car, remarking how big it is (something that had not once been over-looked by myself). He then comments that he thinks it is a Solitary Bee. My first thought was, "Well, it did act alone..." But, he continues on to say that he thinks it is the type of bee that just keeps stinging.

That's a hornet.

But, he was my hero and removed all the evil that was...er...a foot. So, now my left foot hurts and is slightly numb around the little toe, but I will survive.

I just wanted to share.

Funny joke I heard at work. ****NOT A TRUE STORY*****

Two guys are driving though Kansas on their way to California from New York. They get pulled over by a State trooper. When the officer walks up to the drivers side window, the window is rolled down and the Trooper slaps the driver upside the head with his night stick.

reeling from the shock the driver glares back at the Trooper and says" What the hell was that for?

around these parts people have the descency to have their licenses ready when a Troppoer walks up to the car. Where are you from?"

New York" the driver replies.

Nodding in acknowledgement to the answer the Trooper takes the drivers License and walks around the back of the car to the passenger side of the vehicle. As the passenger rolls down his window with the license ready the Trooper slaps him upside his head aswell.

Holding the side of his head the passenger retorts to the smug Trooper.
" What the **** was that for I had my license ready for ya."

"I was making your wish come true." The trooper says as he smiles

Shocked by his answer the passenger looks back to him questionably. " And what wish was that?"

"two miles down the road you would have looked at your buddy and said ""I wish he had tried that shit with me.""


MORAL : careful what you wish for it might come true...... *Grins*


As to the original story... I don't know KRyssie... maybe he just felt like being twice the prick he usually is *lol*
