The continuing Saga, LOL .... George Takei @GeorgeTakei · 4m
Washington state trapped its first murder hornet. Notably, while the Asians have dealt effectively with murder hornets and have them totally under control, America is unprepared. We'll simply let them sweep across our land, stinging our asses to death and ruining our economy.

Oh, I bet that's why they have to advertise. We are pretty doggone white up here, with most of the Asians either students or Canadian residents who can't cross the border now. And none of them are real big, nowhere close to giants. Hmmmmm ...
I still blame Dipo for this whole magilla.

New ? ... So.... I have been trying to figure out one thing, and I need some better googlers because I am not finding the answer.
When you dust shelves, is it better to spray the endust/pledge/cleaning product on the shelf or the dustrag?
Anyone know? Thanks for playing.

I say dust rag because you don't want the endust getting on other things by accident.

Evidence of 6 sightings of Asian giant hornets, known as murder hornets, in Washington state have prompted an urgent search for a possible nest.

I know, I know!! It is front page news up here. Also they have now found one alive!! Never fear, we shall keep battling to hold the line up here and keep them contained. I apparently didn't get hired as a hornet trapper, so I might have to try for assistant hornet trapper or go-fer.

Here we have these new ankle-biting mosquitoes that do not wait until dusk to come out.

Washington state has discovered the first nest of “murder hornets” in the U.S. and plans to wipe it out to protect native honeybees, officials say.

Yeah, thanks, Dipo, that's about 25 miles north of me. We'll keep an eye on them for y'all.

Oh, yeah, rub it in, Dipo, that I didn't get the job of hornet hunter, just 25 miles north of us, and so I don't get to wear one of those cool work uniforms. Our local newspaper did say the hunters couldn't wear regular bee outfits, because the murder hornets could penetrate them.
Oddly enough, just two days ago, I saw a large hornet briefly come close to the top of my closed passenger car window, and I joked to Bigdog that a murder hornet just tried to get into the car. Ack!!!

So no answer. I will ask anyway. My truck sometimes doesn't want to go into gear. I bought some Lucas transmission fix a week ago. So far so good. I'm still really nervous that it is going to keep working though.
I bought a new battery for my 1988 Oldsmobile Delta 88, the same day. So far so good for it too, until today. Went over a speed bump and the car did not want to go forward. Put it in reverse, it worked and put back into drive. Thinking I need to buy some Lucas for it, too.

Put the Lucas in the Olds today. Tried to drive it forward, and still a no go. Makes me nervous for the truck now, too.
