Did anybody else look up 'botfly' in Google Images?

If you don't have the time to do it right, when will you have the time to do it over?

Hell yeah! The reason I mentioned a bot fly is because I came home from a cruise when I was 12, and found a bot fly larva in my arm a few weeks later. I didn't know what it was at first then I remembered something I saw on TLC about human parasites. I put tape over the breathing hole for a while and was then able to squeeze it out and grab the head with a safety pin. I think I still have the little guy in a jar somewhere.

Yuk!

Did you know that 30 Hornets can wipe out an entire hive of 30000 Bees?

Ouch. Bees, larva, arm, inside? Blah. I've heard some bad things about these bugs lately. Not sure if it is coincidence or not.

There was a show on Discovery a few months ago that had some amazing footage of huge Japanese hornets attacking a bee hive.

After taking a long walk in the woods yesterday morning, I removed a tick from my right arm yesterday afternoon.

Yes that's the same video I saw. The Hornets bite the heads off the bees.

As for the Japanese bees, I think this group of words is appropriate.

FUCK. THAT. SHIT.
