Today is a Claw day at work...*73 degrees off a hot roof and they go down fast... Plus, liquid courage painting high and around power feed lines to the house. Claw is helpful. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/V67zpH5R/B5211567-35-C2-4-BDE-8686-9-F918365-B724.jpg) 😎 I'm with you bro but no claw. In a bee suit, Africanized bees trying to kill me, it's 105, and I'm on the big guy 30' up.... ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/D55H4cG.jpg) fugk that. Suited up? Si or I'd be dead. Big thick sting proof gloves too that don't breathe...

I've helped/messed with bees some. But on a ladder no way Jose. Do you do anything with the honeycomb or do you spray before you get into it?

Dangerous enough just doing that... I fill up a three yard dumpster weekly...

Dangerous enough just doing that... I fill up a three yard dumpster weekly... Figured. When I was down there the word was all bees were africanized. No idea of the veracity, but sounded believable. Been on trails out in the desert and heard the humm pretty loud a couple times from far enough out I never got tagged. Had a swarm on my porch one time that kept the wife and kid in the house till I got home and it cooled off. Nothing like what you deal with, these were all exposed and and bunched up tight, I had a can in each hand and as one layer fell off I hit the next before they could get mobile. I was paranoid, but had helped my old man with regular honeybees as a kid and thought I kinda knew what I was doing lol.

Greg always wins when he throws down high ladder work, heat, in a suit and killing bees that want to kill him. I’ll take power lines any day over GW’s work. Fug that! 😬😎

You're using latex paint, right. So it's non conductive if you hit that incoming power line.

I’m probably gonna ride the dragon to the concrete. Livelink has a video of an idiot teenager that got cooked in the lines. He’s caught, just frying apart, foot on fire, body twitching with each current running through him. Spectacular dumbshîttery 😎

1 Grapefruit
2 Lime
The other two are both in the same category as one another, but not near as good as 1 and 2.
I agree mostly. Had this discussion on here not too far back, and as I recall poster JTMan said he preferred the grapefruit, whereas I at the time preferred the Lime. I have since come around to the conclusion that the grapefruit is above the lime in the pecking order. I place the cherry last, which is surprising as I usually like cherry flavored stuff. Brother irFubar stopped by the other day and said he enjoyed the taste of the rasberry one he drank. (BTW he has a 458 win that is erection inducing). Yep, we had that discussion. Glad you've seen the light!

The only thing I really know about electricity, for sure know (experientially even), is that if one does something wrong, one gets the scheidt shocked out of them.

They need to shoot at least 10X that many in Chicago alone. Then they could start in Baltimore, St Louis, Detroit,.... It's a long list. The cops need to get on it.

Getting tougher each day.....usually more than 1 video angle. Body cams, car cams, phones, security cams, even satellite footage.
