Hey all!
LOL! My ex gov Martin O’Malley stepped on his tallywhacker about that saying sending them back is certain death then saying not his state and the White Hut had to throw him under the bus! And he wants to run for preezie of the united steezie!
yHello & good Thursday evening.
Tell Mrs S from me....that should she need to travel in the future, she truly needs to consider wearing a mask AND bring hand sanitizer...TB bacillus stays alive a long time, and can be spread through the ventilation system on the jet (among other diseases) AND years back, a microbiologist tested airplane tray tables and found TB bacillus on them!!
Yeah, that’s scary. She flies pretty much once and sometimes twice a week. I will tell her and thanks for giving me something else to worry about!
Oh and you’re nativist and a racist now that you lied about these illegals spreading disease! ;o)
And why are they flying? They could use Amtrak, since no one else is.
THey dont spread disease, they are carriers and hosts! The airline is currently spreading it!
Here is something from the “Make a bleeding heart liberals head explode” files.......
What Ted Nugent offers to send to ‘kids at the border’ may cause dilemma for liberals

I heard they already flew two kids with a fever suspected of having swine flew.
All I can see is what looks like a gray moth silhouette, but no detail. I’m staying with my original ‘guess’ that it’s an opportunistic honeydew feeder, and not a pest infestation.
Have you ever seen a Peony plant with growing buds on it, covered with ants feeding on the honeydew from the flowers? The ants protect the Peony from aphids, scale etc in return for the sugary secretions, and do no harm to the plant: a symbiosis.
Is the Jap Maple covered with them, too? Can you get a pic of that?
#GoTed!
Probably not a moth, since it doesn’t have the distinct antennae, unless they’re folded back, like the wings, but I can’t see any detail. Can you get any closer?
(If he gets any closer and keeps taking pictures of his stick, people are gonna talk) ;-)
LOL!
Here’s the film of the infiltrating terrorists that the Israeli Ambassador was talking about. IDF blows them up:

Ants and aphids share a well-documented relationship of mutualism. Ants feed on the sugary honeydew left behind by aphids. In exchange, the ants protect the aphids from predators and parasites. In fact, honey ants will go to unusual lengths to ensure the health of the aphids in their care.
Aphids suck the sugar-rich fluids from their host plants. Because these liquids are low in nitrogen, the aphids must consume large quantities of them to gain adequate nutrition. The aphids then excrete equally large quantities of waste, called honeydew, which is high in sugar content.
Where there's sugar, there's bound to be ants. Some ants are so hungry for the honeydew, they'll actually "milk" the aphids to make them excrete it. The ants use their antennae to stroke the aphids, stimulating them to release the honeydew. Some aphid species have lost the ability to poop on their own, and now depend on their caretaker ants to milk them.

COuldnt help busting into a song made famous by Dandy Don Meredith.....
Turn out the lights..........the party’s over.....
Ha! You’re right; I was talking on the phone and typing, not paying attention to who I was attributing what to. The any are protecting the aphids feeding on the Peony buds, and feeding on their honeydew, not the plant’s secretions. Duh. Thanks for the correction.
I’ll try again tomorrow. Also calling the arborist.
Carpenter aunts?
