A woman was videotaping her son riding a skate board when her attention switched to an elderly lady trying to cross the street. It is the best direct hit I have seen in some time. Pay special attention to the driver of the car after the 'hit'. Rerun to note the air bag goes off!!!.. You can hear the woman who's taping giggling as she records the event. Open the attachment; it's a quick one, but you will get a good laugh

When growing up in San Saba, we had what we called Blister Bugs.. slim, gray varmints that would leave such a blister on the skin.. they didn't sting, or hurt, but left a serious blister... Don't know why they were so prevalent around SS but have never seen one in the Austin area...

Yep, pore old Buzz is grounded for life...What did he do , you ask ? Well, he snuck out of his window in a snow storm and went over to Son's house, leaving the window open. I mean, it's not like he could actually REACH the window to close it, you know. Why was he incarcerated at Mommy's instead of foisted off on poor Son as usual ? Got all sorts of bad marks at school one day....Whole back of his hand was stamped..Apparently his wiry little body has overrode the old ADHD meds, almost got him kicked out of school, becauise he'd been acting up bad for a long time. They don't have any of the programs at his school that I had set up when he was here..... He's on new meds, but still grounded. I told Son to let him go play in the snow,, hopefully the last of the season...Nope....more than his life's worth...Tried to use my Granny powers to override the orders, but wasn't allowed..Grandparents know how to take misbehaving better than when their kids were young. So Buzz didn't get to build a snowman...May be just as well, he was refusing to build one the last I heard because he didn't have any way to build it taller than he was. I told him to build a little one...He told me rather irately ''Bye, I gotta go "..Apparently he's seen them on TV and thinks theres only one size. I think he's got a lot to learn about playing in the snow...since his one and only attempt to make a snow angel was lying face first in the snow... Mom is trying to shuck husband No 5 so it's mighty rough sailing around there now....They're trying to move over here....Son was such a sweet little kid he is ashamed of himself to this day..spent a lot of grownup years trying to live it down. So Buzz is the other side of the coin....Jeannie T.. PS: Papa went outside and got a huge pan of snow and I made Buzz a big sack of snowballs to freeze. It looked so snowy white I made a bowl of snow cream , and it was mighty good...Canned milk, sugar, Mexican vanilla, and plenty of snow. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Sat, 12 Feb 2011 13:20:02 -0500 "helenware" <helenware@comcast.net> writes: > I have been waiting for Jeannie to tell the story of why poor Ol Buzz was grounded for life!

Sounds like he got hit by a blister bug, or they are sometimes called blister beetles. Most are silver and black striped, but I have seen them brown and silver. They are a terrible pest in the garden...and will blister if they get on you > My potatoes were just crawling with them one time so I tapped a bunch of them off in a bucket, blended them with some water and sprayed it back on the plants. Next day only one plant had bugs...So I sprayed it again. Don't know where they disappeared to..no carcasses laying around....Learned that bit of lore from Organic Gardening magazine, I think. We have a problem with stink bugs messing up our tomatoes..I reckon they lay eggs just under the skin...anyway, it makes a corky bad spot. If you mash them they really smell bad..are usually shied shaped, green.

About twenty years ago while driving down a Texas highway, my son had his window open and his arm out of it-he was hit/bit by a triangular silver/grey bug that flew into him-it hurt so bad he stopped to look thinking it might have been a bee(he is very allergic) it made a very big blister on his upper arm and we never found out what type of bug it was. But he said it was a burning pain as it blistered. Do you think a "stink bug" would do that? Helen

I bought several dozen quarts of honey the last time, and specified that years fresh honey. Well, the honey we are using now looks like molasses it's so dark! It's partly sugared, so we have to heat it a little to pour it into our special honey jar. Still tastes great, so....I know where HE gets this honey, so will go straight to the producer next time...if we live long enough to use up what honey we have. Was spooked when reading about so many bees dying or disappearing so decided to stock up.

Sounds like crickets if chirping But stink Bug is such a generic term that it depends on which area and they are different bugs. As far as I know Missouri" stink bugs" only stink, musty crushed bug odor, and there is one that leaves blisters if it crawls on your skin, nasty looking gray thing. It has been a LONG LONG time since I pinned and study any insects. Just please, keep the june bugs in your areas. And they DO stink!!!Their odor is enough to set me off but then I have a mania about them. Bud.

Haven't I heard that honey is the ONLY thing that doesn't spoil? Carol K in Michigan The brother of my late companion, David, lives in Filmore, CA and is a semi-retired attorney. One of his clients was a beekeeper who had a bunch of hives. I say a bunch because I don't know how many. Every year he would give the attorney about a dozen boxes of pints of honey from his hives. Joe (the brother) gave David three boxes of this honey. This was about 15 years ago. Over the years we used up or gave away two boxes. Each box holds twelve pints. I still have seven unopened bottles and one I am working on. Sure is a good thing honey doesn't spoil. Robert E Paty, Scottsdale, AZ aka Mad Hatter

I went with my granddaughter and her mother to look at wedding gowns this afternoon. She won't be getting married until 2012 but she is all excited. Each gown was prettier than the other. Her godfather, her dad's brother, is paying for it. I used to watch her when she was a baby up to when she started first grade and stayed with her after school. The time goes so fast, so grandma's and grandpap's spend a lot of time with your grandchildren because they grow up so fast. She was named after me. B. graduated from nursing school a few months ago. Five years and lots of money. She overcame a father who spent 6 months in jail for yelling in front of a bingo crowd that he was going to kill his girlfriend (my daughter and he were divorced at the time). Maxed out credit cards and got a woman pregnant and got deeply in debt. The second one didn't love or care about his kids and he showed no emotion towards B. My daughter got deep in debt with this one to. He threatened her with telling us about her debts, if she would not take any part of his pension. SOB. He was adopted and I don't why his parents did this because they showed no love towards him. Her dad remarried a woman who was 27 years younger then him. They have a daughter who is 4 now and is the cutest little thing. He has a daughter who is 4 and one that is almost 24. Even though he hurt my daughter and B., he is still now part of our family and is welcomed into our home. My daughter ask him to help her move in with us and he did. His wife and daughter have been to our house and they are welcomed to. Sorry, about going on and on about this, getting it out of me helped me some. Barb tipperboo12@msn.com

I just read in the paper that someone has made a stink bug trap. It won't be out until the summer. The price is $19.95 and it lasts for 2 weeks. They have refills that cost $9.95. I don't know why they call them stink bugs because we have killed a lot of them and never smelled anything. I have one in my computer room and sometimes it keeps chripping. It is really loud. I read that they come into the house when it gets cold. I must have had goofie bugs because I started to get ours in the summer when it was hot. Barb tipperboo12@msn.com

I'm sorry your snow is nasty. At least the one nice thing about it at my house is that it is all still white & pretty. The dog finally realized he can walk on top of the snow, so he finally went out into the yard. Supposed to go to 50 this week, so some of it should melt.

I know a little about honey. If you want pure honey...real honey....you should not purchase honey called clover honey. Clover honey is cut with karo..... I don't think they tell you that on the label. If they tell you it's from only a certain area.... how do the bees know they are supposed to go to a certain field and gather only that honey.
