Paging Ricky Spanish

[Ricky Spanish]

Michigan? Gotta move below the Mason-Dixon Line, Arkansas sounds mo better.

If you take a pencil and a map and extend that line west it goes right thru Effinghell...
Effingham, IL.


I'm pretty sure that if you catch a guy in your garage taking a can of gas you can:
1. Kill him.
2. Piss on him
3. Light him on fire
And it's OK in Arkansas so stay out of my yard.

[Anotherone]

Who’d thunk it? That’s crazy.

[Anotherone]

Arkansas is pro-defend, maybe not as much as Texas. Texas hands out trophies when you dispose of a menace to society.

[Ricky Spanish]

Who’d thunk it? That’s crazy.

If you drive south thru this state it's flat and boring as hell until.you go thru Effingham and then it's pretty and hilly.
Nice people and that's why it's called southern Illinois you can almost feel it once you go past the giant cross on I57.
You just entered the south. Crazy...it is but I like it.
Yankeegray lives way south in Illinois.
He's a pretty good example of southern hospitality too.
I stop there every time I get near.

Boy Alabama is pretty. You see a mountain and just want to go explore it...
Probably not a good idea.

Currently watching a musky fishing show on tv and “BORDER RESTRICTIONS HAVE ENDED” comes across the bottom on screen. I guess we can go to Canada and unleash holy hell now.

It sounds good but I don't even want to think about the alarms that'd go off if I apply for a passport and try flying somewhere with a gun.
Fuck that. I'm afraid of flying or on a no fly list or something.

[Anotherone]

Maybe the princess?

[Ricky Spanish]

Maybe the princess?

I suppose in a drunken stupor if she showed up in camp I'd hit that or at least try.

[Ricky Spanish]

I guess I should go up in my attic and get out the truck tires that go on that big assed dodge.
Whose idea was it to put them there?
Doh.

[Anotherone]

Super swamper boggers?

[Ricky Spanish]

He will want these.
4 more up there.
Oh...you want tires with tread? $500...lol
What's on the truck are bald..

I bets ts $3k for a new set of truck tires on a 3500

[Anotherone]

I’d put some treadwright retreads on the rear if I was running it. New tires are too damn expensive.

[Ricky Spanish]

Have been working on trying to prove roughly how many eggs a queen bee lays in a day.
This old crappy video kind of shows that one egg per minute is pretty normal or at least close.
That's 1440 a day.
They say it's more. I agree but it has to be on a frame that's all clean and ready to go.
In a mess like this hive she has to search in between eggs for an empty cell.

I am clueless about that stuff.
Told the guy if it's broke I'd just nail it really good.
Carpenter logic.
I troubleshooted it yesterday and determined that you can not charge two old assed batteries that have been frozen.
I told him it'd take two good truck batteries.
He had one.
Nope.

[Ricky Spanish]

I'm getting a bad feeling that some random guy who decided a truck is for sale randomly is going to treat me like I'm a car salesman.
Nope. Take it or leave it fuck you.
Pay first then get it the hell out of here.
I really don't want to fuck with it or it'd have a sign.
Sigh. Old junk.
Probably needs brakes too.

[Anotherone]

As is $2500 or get to walking, lol.

[OGblackcloud]

Thats right no wiggle room 2500 or kick rocks

[Ricky Spanish]

Just spent an hour re-arranging a hive that was an accident. Last year a swarm moved into a stack, I said screw it, and there it was.
It's a strong one. Will make hunny.
It keeps getting better

[Ricky Spanish]

Remember them new honey boxes?
Yesterday I looked at one and it's partially drawn.
The bees are preparing it for storage use.
Fun to watch. Smells delicious.
It's a great time to be a beekeeper.
45 years ago honey was a dollar a pound and hardly any buyers. Today every Karen wants to save the bees.

[Ricky Spanish]

This is getting serious he's buying batteries.

I warned him that it's still an old pos dodge.
That Cummins tho...
I like it too. Letting it go stinks.
But I don't wanna crawl all under it and fix all the bugs.

Have any idea of how many tire kickers I've dealt with?
Even Rex Mother Fucking Chapmam was interested a few years ago.

[Ricky Spanish]

What the hell? Where was the sun this morning in my bee video?

Hey Jimmy Jed or Plainsman...how bout being a good little runt and fix the roof on my wishing well eh?
I feel sorry for you northern suckas still suffering in the cold winter.
But not that much.

[OGblackcloud]

Still spittin snow around here

[Ricky Spanish]

At the bee yard waiting.
While I'm here I counted honey supers in use.
33.
I'll end up using these 7 plus more.
My stacks in the shed are gone except for a few that need work.

Those have no frames.

16821130530292259059456124911888.jpg

Ill end up with around 43 times 2.5 gallons x $70/gallon.
Sweet rewards.

[Ricky Spanish]

[Ricky Spanish]

We fucked with that truck for 2 hours.
It started, ran, then quit because air in fuel line.
Bleeding all the lines to the injectors takes time.
Try again tomorrow...in the rain.
That's why I never put a for sale sign on it.
I knew it'd turn into two batteries and who knows what all else.

You fit right into the slums, barely making the low bar.

[Ricky Spanish]

You two ladies must be really bored...

I'm not your type move along.

Seems like at least 4 who have no respect for you....
Maybe YOU should move...elsewhere....
