He probably has a grape parachute stuff somewhere too.

Experts have examined the nest, which is said to be 21'9” in length, and say the common type of wasp found in gardens would never normally build a nest of this size.

They believe it must be an invasive species of wasp which had migrated from Africa.

I don't have a link to this story, just something that happened to a friend of mine when we both lived in Alabama.  My friend has two pitbulls and are some of the nicest dogs I have met.  One day, across the street, someone tried to break into a house and the alpha pitbull (Macy) jumped over my friend's fence and stopped the break in (another neighbor saw the person that broke in and called the cops).  The guy was arrested.  Macy simply sat in front of the entrance of the fence when my friend got home.

The cop said that it is illegal to have pitbulls in Lee County in Alabama.  However, he said he will look the other way because every neighbor said these dogs are the neighborhood watch dogs.  It was a nice story and thought I would pass it along.

that's a great story but I'm not sure I'm comfortable with a pit bull making decisions on who is a bad guy and who is a good guy and being able to easily get out of his yard and attack whoever he deems to be bad. in fact I'm very uncomfortable with it.

That was my thought too.  The dog never attacked the man that broke in.  The pit bull, according to the neighbor that witnessed the whole thing, said Macy stood on the porch and barked repeatedly.  The thief couldn't leave the house.  Allegedly, the cop came and Macy instantly stopped barking.  I think it was amazing, but Macy has never attacked anybody (she did kill a rabbit about a month ago).

Fair enough.  Pit Bulls are strong dogs that have a brutal stigma attached to them.  I actually found another example of this type of behavior with Pit Bulls here http://www.piaberrend.org/stray-pit-bull-saves-woman-child-from-attacker/.  For every positive pit bull story, there are a dozen terrible ones and it's cool not to be comfortable with it.

no need to fear. they were bred to fight bulls to the death (in pits), not people.

I understand pit bulls are capable of ripping my face off.  I do not think they fully understand their benefits to not ripping my face off.  If someone wants to have a pit bull and risk their face, power to them, just keep it securely away from my face.
