    You have a good point about the GPS Husar. If the phones have GPS built-in, we could cell them to the bees...

    Or we could just lie about the GPS and take advantage of the desperate bees in a kind of sting operation.

    Pah! I've got the real scoop on the bees....

    They're all leaving earth ahead of a Vogon demolition fleet that's scheduled to demolish the planet in order to make way for an intergalactic hyperspace bypass. They've been trying to warn humans for years, but we've misinterpreted the warnings as attempts to defend their hives.

    You know that intricate dance they do, which we all thought was a means of communicating navigation information? The actual message is:

    "So long, and thanks for all the pollen."

    Bon voyage, our colorful apian friends. You will be missed... at least until August 13, 2007.

    Man, I really should start reading an entire thread before I post in it.

    I see our senses of humor run roughly along the same lines, Kommodus.

    Not a hang up to have when one is a moderator - he should bee-hive better as an example for the rest of us.
