One Saturday morning at 7:00 AM I got a call from my mailman:
"Did you order some bees?"
"Some what??"
"Some bees. I have a box for you and on the front it says CAUTION, CONTAINS LIVE BEES"
"No, I didn't order any bees. When I was a kid I stepped on a hornet's nest and got 57 stings. I'm not real keen on bees."
"Well, I'm bringing the box out since it was mailed to you."

As it turned out, I'd purchased a sewing machine for my wife from a lady in Texas on eBay. Her idiot husband decided that it would keep the postal folks from beating the box up. Im surprised he didn't get arrested - but the box arrived in REALLY good shape. Next time you ship a Ric.....

Putting "live bees" on your parcel will guarantee that it's impounded & searched if it has to cross any border!

That's like showing up at the airport with a suitcase labelled "bombs & guns".
