Painting....

....was going fine until I hit the bee's nest.  Paper wasps, actually.  I was well up on the ladder.

30 seconds of slapstick followed, but no one was there to see it.

For the lack of a video camera there goes your chance for fame and fortune.

Gotta set up that camera BEFORE you climb the ladder. Your audience expects more of you.

Hopefully, no 30-foot fall followed as part of the slapstick routine.

Mr. Sippi, is you all right? " Well, I didn't vote for Goldwater, but I'm OK, if that's what you mean."

I'm sorry.

I really don't find that funny. I am sure you set ladder-speed records. I hope you didn't get too badly stung.

When I was young my dad taught me the importance of the first ladder twilight survey of the eaves before the painting project begins! Do it for the children!

Yikes! Just catching up on my reading (daughter back from Cyprus a few days ago and enjoying her company). How many got you? I hope you had some truly nasty poison to zap them ALL...(I'm an organic gardener except for wasp and hornet nests near the house and poison Ivy anywhere in God's Creation.
