Re: Wasp Nest Souvenir

During the summer I was 11, I would sneak over the fence of a house that was for sale that had a nice pool. One day I climbed from a different section of fence and grabbed what felt to be a wadded up paper ball. It was not a wadded up paper ball folks, it was an active wasp nest and I was thouroughly stung on my hand, arm, neck, and ear. I can't say I've experienced anything as painful since.

Re: Wasp Nest Souvenir

We live out in the country. I found a hornets nest in the ground about 30ft from the house, while mowing. There were apparently two outlets to the hive. I poured gas in the one I found and set fire to it. It was full of wax. That evening when the wife (of 30yrs) came home we were having dinner. She looked out the dining room window and said she just saw a flame come out of the ground. (the wind would wisp up the flame ever so often) I explained to her that she was insane and seeing things. I also explained to her that we do not have a gas line there or anywhere in the back yard. "There it goes again". I look and obviously see nothing. Well, into the dark of the evening with a little breeze it would wisp up a flame, which I had to acknowledge. I said, "well looks like we have vulcano in the back yard." The wife ask me if I was going out and look at it. "what and put my ol' butt in harms way?" and so it went, with a volcano news update from the wife about every half hour. I don't think she slept much that night. I didn't tell her till next day and the wax was still burning .... she called me a #$#^$*%^** !!!
