    "Stop and help turtles cross roadways, when it's safe", they said (except roadways are never safe).


    He almost got hit too... then everyone was in the road.​

    Bees were mentioned, a fella who taught me to operate the evaporator in a drying plant was that 2ay around bees, he was scared to death of them.

    That scene from "Tommy Boy" comes to mind as well.

    Got a nephew that has the whole "tough guy, tattooed gangsta (ex-con)" act going on... until there's a bee. Then he becomes a screaming four-year-old girl.

    Actually, a four-year-old girl is probably more composed and screams less. :D

    Or wrecking the truck and 1/4 mil worth of freight. Unfortunately, life isn't all puppies and gumdrops.
