What the heck?? Is that kid dead or not?

[Kaslin]

Strange, in this report the boy is said to recover. in the other report it says he was killed

[tuffydoodle]

I just read through the other thread, the boy is ok.

[don-o]

Well, at least he did not set his house on fire.

[DumpsterDiver]

Its easier to wait until dark and then spray them from 20 feet with RAID Hornet and Wasp Killer.

I keep a can of that in my car to ward off any potential carjackers. (Aim for the face.)

Hasn't this guy seen Tommy Boy?

"Bees!! Your weapons are powerless against them!!"

"Also the reporter is a moron. Shotguns don't shoot Bullets."

And he probably paid in-state tuition as well.

Good afternoon.

Siloo Wasp and Hornet Spray drops the little buggers on contact.

"Romeo, Romeo ... wherefore art thy brain, Romeo?"

[G Larry]

He should have used some of his "smoke" on the wasps.

Headlines aren't normally written by the reporter who writes the article -- they're written after the fact by editors. The article itself says "pellets".

[chickenlips]

There's a funny magazine ad that shows a guy high up on a ladder with a string trimmer getting ready to whack a hornet nest from a house overhang. I'll bet this guy would actually try it.

[TADSLOS]

A CO2 fire extinguisher works great for this. Freezes and suffocates 'em on contact.

Ha! I ran your phrase through a translator and it came out like this:

"Maintain my beer and you watch this"

[proudofthesouth]

Excellent idea. I'll add it to this weeks grocery list.

[cubreporter]

He thought he could SHOOT the wasps?

[TaMoDee]

OK Guys, I'll give you the correct "Spanglish" and it will also 'splain to the Sapnish challenged:

"El holdo my beero and el watcho thiso!"

"Its easier to wait until dark and then spray them from 20 feet with RAID Hornet and Wasp Killer."

No. It's easier to wait until early morning before it turns light to nuke them. Works for bees too. Both insects need the sun for navigation and are still warm in the evening and can still buzz a little.

If there is a trial for the guy with the shotgun, THAT's the kind of jury duty I want to get called for!

[BobS]

"He thought he could SHOOT the wasps?"

Yes. From an apartment window. And people were living in another apartment across the street. The cops must have had fun with live ones:)
