#2 This beekeeper has several hives of that size. I feel bad for the guy, not a good way to go. But, I doubt all those bees stung him.
Also, never mow towards a hive, always away.

#4 I'd rather adopt a lion or something. Even if my love fails an' he goes rogue for some reason, at least I have just one individual to worry about.

No offense to all you Sherlock Holmes fans.

#7 #6 ... How do you get to the hive so that you can "mow away' from it?

#8 I suppose the same way you mow away from your mulch bed. Many Midwesterners are adept at controlling the direction of grass clippings with their mower.

#9 Beein' bees hard! Especially when there's a *bleep*load of the little sumbitches. Not that you can blame them. They're really just tiny hexapodal robots.

#10 Complicated by the fact that bees are now 'protected' in Texas.
You're not supposed to to kill 'em.
