*sigh* I need to start watching Doctor Who. I keep just catching an episode here and there.
Yes, Neil Gaiman's blog had a bit about the disappearing honey bees a few months ago that brought it to my attention. Interesting stuff especially since no one can really say why they're disappearing.
I still remember the "Killer Bees" (Oh noes the killer bees of death!!!) scare from my youth and now the bees are dying.
I try to watch TV shows through my Blockbuster Online account and I had added all the Doctor Who on there. Then Blockbuster started to send me Season Two because apparently all their Season Ones (I assume they must have only one set in this case and someone refuses to watch it and return it) were "long wait". I didn't want to watch season two before season one. This messed up the queue so I ended up just watching Dexter (which is OMG fantastic--a show about a serial killer).
Maybe I can rent the discs from the actual store instead...hmmm...
Totally recommend Dexter...even with all the blood
Yeah, it's friggin' scary, actually... I read that the human race would pretty much be decimated in four years without bees. That, and the poles shifting on 12/21/12 ... the human race is focked (like that Irish accent?)...
Funny the things you learn on the History Channel!
