Hahaha...the southern beeks are bragging online about their bugs. The Yankees reply about how africanized bees
aren't even a thing here.
Hashing their bee buzz...

Whatever become of the murder hornets? Did Covid get them?

Asian honets have been on this continent for decades.
You've probably seen one

[Anotherone]

I’ve seen the brown hornet.

Forgive me if I use the wrong term but I believe it’s called churned honey. It’s basically a spread. We have quite a bit of that as well that farmers have passed on to us. Absolutely love that stuff on just about everything!

Look up "spun honey".
How it's made is its basically allowed to crystallize and slowly churned while it's doing it.
I don't do that

That’s the stuff— spun honey

[Ricky Spanish]

That’s the stuff— spun honey

on the bottom shelf where you never look.
This stuff is fantastic.
Rena Jonez makes the stuff.
Can't get it open.
Cinnamon and honey is damn good for you they say.

[PorkChop]

Cinnamon and honey on vanilla ice cream is spectacular

[Ricky Spanish]

vanilla ice cream

Once a new package of that is open it's like a race to eat it and she's extremely possessive about it.
I see it.

....and it's gone.
If I go buy sherbet it's all mine.
What is this vanilla ice cream you speak of
Is it good?
Bunny's???

[PorkChop]

Couldn’t tell you the brand. I typically eat chocolate ice cream with melted peanut butter, mini chocolate chips and crushed peanut M&Ms or crushed peanut butter pretzels. And a little bit of chocolate syrup. But if there’s no chocolate ice cream then I settle for vanilla and in the past have put the honey and cinnamon on it.

If you watched Death Valley days with the old prospector you'd see that they were grooming this man to be president long before he ran for office.

Hell of a speech.

The back story. A farmer shot the boy's dog for trespassing. Reagan sued him for $500.
They couldn't believe anyone would make a stink over a Mongrel mutt. The boy's ONLY friend.
Ironically I paid $500 for my dog

Am struggling with one detail of the "world privacy tour" Southpark. According to the prince of Canada's book "waaa" he got himself a frostbitten todger while visiting the arctic. ( brief pause to reflect)

Have any of you guys even came close to having a blue todger? Me? No. That's ridiculous.

The honeybee thing is global.
It's extremely interesting to watch videos from other parts of the world.

Eastern European beekeepers are really cool like honeybee gypsies.
The south pacific ones seem brutal to their stingless honeybees. No sting? Yup.

Look up "hallucinogenic honey".
Manuka is the most expensive. It's medicinal and only comes from New Zealand I think.
It looks different.

The hives in the video are Kenyan top bar hives. I think theyre in one of the slavik states of eastern europe. They grow horizontally. In the Midwest that works but langstroth's design is way better for north America.

So far I've seen two of these doves in my yard.
There is a pair living around here and that's one of them.

Big deal ...
The past week we've had all sorts of birds come thru.
Flickers were here last week.

[Anotherone]

Eurasian collared dove, the old folks around here call them turtle doves. I can report they taste like mourning and white winged doves.
Sometimes it’s best to let sleeping dogs lie:

4400 members ?!?
Holy fuck.

Fish are biting they say

[Anotherone]

Nothing but blatant lies, all the crappie are next to the bridge pylons. Drop a 1/16 oz chartreuse/black tube jig on the down current side of each pylon and fill the ice chest. Good eating.

Shut up...lol

There's a portion of the lake that's closed until April first.
So you fish by the bridge pylons nearest the hot water discharge canal. Shhh...don't tell.
It's boring. You cast out...current pulls you under the bridge...repeat.
If you see your line do funny stuff it's a fish.

I first saw those doves when I was in Wyoming. We have several in our neighborhood. They stay all winter. Pretty hearty birds!

[Anotherone]

Damn invasive species!

First time I saw one was about 12 years ago in semo.
Was going back and forth between big lake and a club in Missouri. That area gets crazy amounts of birds and they all tend to segregate. This one field was covered in them doves.

Today at the ramp these two guys had a little trouble.
Their boat was OK. Trailer fair. It was windy with a cross wind dude was having a hell of a time.
Finally they drug the boat out half on the trailer it almost fell off.
I made it look easy.

They were cussing up a storm

It was so windy ...aim at the right side tail light and the wind blows you over onto the middle if you hit it right.

It's rare to find anything this well done on YouTube.

If you're into philosophy even a tiny bit the video should interest you.
Thomas Sowell...
I'll turn you into philodophers.

Day one of class.
Define philosophy
Philos=love
Sophy= knowledge

Class is over for today.


POUNDER: that's as close to intellectual content as it can get on a waterfowl website.

[Ricky Spanish]

I don't know the punchline but this feels like the setup for a hell of a good joke.

How many Samoas can you eat. ( all of them)
What? Wait...
Woke hits again.
Or is it Mandela effect?

Nope.
