They can make you crazy. My brother came up from SoCal largely so he could at last afford his own house. Proud of the place, he is...so he's out in his backyard mowing the lawn and wanders under a tree where there's a soccer-ball sized nest from the house being on the market since early spring and the back yard being unattended. Gets stung, also for the first time in his life.

So he gets a lawn chair and a six-pack. No, not beer, insecticide. Anyone sane would hose the nest down and have done with it. Not my bro. No, no...I find him sitting out on a lawn chair with an adult beverage zapping them out of the air one at a time and laughing maniacally, like something out of a Vincent Price movie. When they stopped coming he soaks the nest and torches it. His only tree. In his backyard. Twenty feet from his new house.

I'm thinking someone has an anger management issue here...
