(wash the bees off first though) Okay now I have to admit, as I wasn’t expecting it to work quite so effectively, I’m not too sure of the particulars of the next portion of my plan. Are those bees under your thought control? Could you direct them towards any person of your choosing? like Karl Rove maybe? ---

[Semi-hijack] I caught Eddie’s gig at Shoreline Amphitheater on Saturday, and it was a blast. He got a standing ovation before even saying a word. His reaction was to say, “You’re doing that too early, I could be shit!” Opening at dusk, he was distracted by a small flock of swallows flying around, but he incorporated them into the act with hilarious results.

Er, no. I was trying to riff on the popular meme surrounding the Doper you referred to. I think. Maybe I got the wrong Doper, and/or my lame attempt at humor simply didn’t cut it. ---
