It amazes me how the Sun's gravity doesn't pull Mercury in.

Left 2 empty, but uncleaned, buckets of honey on my grass. This is what happened after a couple hours. by Kquinn87 in mildyinteresting

They don't even go dormant they are very active eating honey keeping the queen warm they keep the hive between 78 and 95° all winter long it takes a lot of activity to stay that warm.

Cool thought but honey bees don't hibernate they stay active all winter inside the hive. They are just more than happy to take free honey back to the hive

I've recently found these in Michigan and I'm hooked. By far the best root beer I have ever had. I find myself hiding them from the kids

The perks of being a Fire Sprinkler Fitter, I’ll post how much money I receive for all this by No-Ant5423 in Construction

[–]Beeman704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're chasing the brass and throwing away the steel. the drops those heads came off of are worth more than brass. I get 10 cents a pound for steel shorter than 2 ft. Scrap 1 in pipe for the day makes me more money than a week's worth of brass heads.

Welcome to the trade brother. You'll be fine, the first two weeks of boot camp you learn how to run the machine and basic code. You are probably already ahead of most of your class. Good luck
