Fark linked up this collection of photos detailing various escalating efforts to dislodge a huge group of bees from (what one hopes is) a disused swing set in the back yard. Seems to me it would've been much simpler/safer to call animal control, or just wait until they went away. I can't help but think somewhere in the vicinity is a honey farmer wondering what the hell happened to one of his hives.
According to the article, the bees were coming from a hole in a neighbor's rented house. I don't know much about beekeeping, but I'm pretty sure you should at least own the property before you engage in such an industry.
Given the unusual behavior of the wildlife emerging from his home, I'm inclined to think they were trying to make something more mind altering than honey in there.
Hadn't thought of that, but now that I do, seems more than a little likely.
