Red Wasps are everywhere! And they are MEAN!
ButterflyLion replied to aw2008's topic in RECENT TOPICS
Subby, dirt daubers are different from a lot of other wasps: Mud daubers are solitary wasps that construct small nests of mud in or around homes, sheds, and barns and under open structures, bridges and similar sites.

ButterflyLion replied to Baileybleu's topic in RECENT TOPICS
As a child I remember my mother getting letters from her mother every week in the mail. Before I learned to write cursive I couldn't read a letter for example that was written in cursive from my grandmother vs. a note that was printed or a book. -

Thank you. -
The song was recorded by several artists. From songfacts.com/: In the Guardian newspaper of February 24, 2006, Hollies guitarist Tony Hicks said: "In the 1960s when we were short of songs I used to root around publishers in Denmark Street. One afternoon, I'd been there ages and wanted to get going but this bloke said: 'Well there's one more song. It's probably not for you.' He played me the demo by the writers [bobby Scott and Bob Russell]. It sounded like a 45rpm record played at 33rpm, the singer was slurring, like he was drunk. But it had something about it.

First it may be illegal due to county or city ordinances. The actual success of burning is often less than desired. Why risk burning down your house, or even worse, yours and your neighbors. And if your home insurance agent knows you are doing this he may cancel your insurance. ... http://msucares.com/lawn/lawn/turf/05/0221.html -

This thread reminds me of the lines from a song, "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother." So on we go His welfare is of my concern No burden is he to bear We'll get there For I know He would not encumber me He ain't heavy, he's my brother If I'm laden at all I'm laden with sadness That everyone's heart Isn't filled with the gladness Of love for one another -
