natural disasters



you forgot killer bees.. the africanized kind..

we have had 4 deaths in the past 2 years from attacks by killer bees in this area. and several attacks where people got stung multiple times, but survived.

i am so paranoid, if i see more than 4-5 bees hovering around the same place, i just leave the area. from what i understand.. if you kill one, or disturb one, they put out a pheramone that alerts the rest of the hive, and here they come. and you cant just jump in water, cause they will wait for you to come up for air.. smart little bastards..

To be fair, this region is fairly immune to natural disasters in general. We don't have tornados, hurricanes, urban flooding, large hail, drought, locusts, poisonous snakes, expensive mudslides, tumbleweeds, or extreme heat. It only froze about two days last winter, and it only snowed once.



Killer Bees!

Didja think of that? I'll bet the Killer Bees are coming your way!

Bigwill,

When I first read the post I thought it referred to the quake on Sunday morning. For some reason I didn't feel the one yesterday afternoon! I didn't have the tv on, so didn't see the barrage of newscasts and didn't realize we just had another one. If I remember I was just sitting reading a book yesterday at 1:30--2:00. That's when it hit, right? The more I think about it, the more it bugs me that I completely missed the entire thing. I could understand if I was driving around, but I was lounging around the house!?

Strange indeed.

Weird...I too was on the can for that Sunday morning rumble.

btw...re: "killer" bees. Four deaths over two years if far from a major concern, no? More people likely die from choking on beef in Texas in a two year period. Are you afraid to eat steak?
