Either I am getting smarter, doubtful, or the puzzles are getting easier, also doubtful! I still enjoy doing them and I do believe it is good exercise for my brain. Have a wonderful spring day and stay safe, all!!
"An irate visitor Really Marched up to the beekeeper and complained, "One of your bees just stung me. I want you to do something about it." The beekeeper answered soothingly, "Certainly Madam, just show me which bee it is, and I'll have it punished."
If I had been the beekeeper, I would have offered the lady some aloe.

The beekeeper could have said that the bee gave the ultimate sacrifice, it died! Just a thought, and the answer was really good!

Love that answer! If you're stung by a bee, try to get the stinger out first thing, because it's attached to the venom sac and can still pump into you. I've not tried aloe, but a crushed aspirin or antihistamine made into a paste with a bit of water is an excellent way to stop the pain and any itch. You can even buy Benedryl gel now. It really came in handy when my Dearly Beloved was attacked by yellow jacket wasps. 7 stings! I told him to leave the stump alone after we got him all doctored up!

Love the joke, but, alas: "When a honey bee stings a person, it cannot pull the barbed stinger back out. It leaves behind not only the stinger, but also part of its abdomen and digestive tract, plus muscles and nerves. This massive abdominal rupture kills the honey bee. Honey bees are the only bees to die after stinging."
Hope everyone is doing well and keeping safe during the pandemic. Our county wants to "open up" -- still having masks and social distancing as a rule of going out, but I'm afraid our numbers will increase as people become careless. Understand that 6 ft. isn't really enough. Some say 9 to 12 ft. with both wearing masks!

Good night and God bless. Hugs.
