The Road Will Be Sticky For Weeks



20 Million bees escaped a truck in Delaware.  Where’s Nicolas Cage when you need him?


So Jeremy is under the impression that "National Treasure"'s National Treasure Nicolas Cage has some extraordinary talents when it comes to beekeeping.


Or, I'm bringing to mind the infamous torture scene from The Wicker Man in which serial over-actor Nicolas Cage is forced to wear a cage over his head into which a swarm of bees are poured.  One or the other.

Let's Watch!

So as funny as it is to watch the hack Nicolas Cage ridiculously ham it up amidst a flurry of bad CGI, today's Sametime Status is based on a not so funny true story.  A semi truck filled with honey bee hives (and the associated bees...some 20 million of them) overturned in Newark Delaware.  The bees escaped and were a giant swarm around the highway for quite some time while beekeepers and firemen were called in from all over the state to deal with the problem. 

Now, the question becomes, would you rather drive through a swarm of 20 million angry bees, or watch a Nicolas Cage movie?  Tough call, I know....
