It's my opinion, that twitter is becoming a place for gossip and nasty unfounded statements which really brings out negativity and darkness. I've removed my account.
I wish the President and all other government officials would do the same. It's extremely counter productive!
Apparently only 3% of twitter users account for 90 something percent of all tweets.
If you are a reasonable person, you should consider dropping this poisonous social media resource as it's becoming less thoughtful, and more of a place to whine and backbite.
Consider the scripture 1 Corinthians 13:1 -
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
The sound of a bird "tweeting" to me sounds like a tinkling cymbal. Sounds like prophecy to me.
Last Saturday I was getting the pool ready to swim. I noticed a large bug floating on the water. It was dead. Solid as a brick. It looked like a massive wasp. I used the net to scoop it out and put it on the hot tub cover. It's legs were all curled in and it had drowned. It's body was about twice as long as a normal wasp and it had what looked like a massive stinger coming out it's rear, but it wasn't exactly coming out where the stinger usually is.
Here's a couple pics I took:
After posting this pic on facebook asking people to help me identify it, I noticed the abdomen was starting to move slightly. Nothing else. Just the abdomen portion. I was thinking it was probably a female and there was a larvae inside that survived and was trying to get out. Here's the facebook thread:
What kind of insect is this? I know it’s not a spider, but I don’t have an insects album. Wasps aren’t as long as this. This is about twice as long.
Scott Cotten definitely nailed it. Here is a great page dedicated to this insect: Pigeon Horntail Wasp
After a while the legs started moving too. Just one leg, and after about 15 minutes, another leg. Then it was able to barely crawl along with those two legs. Within about 1 and 1/2 hours all the legs were moving and it wouldn't stay put. Just walk around.
By the time night fell, it was just walking around in the same 10 square foot area on the patio by the hot tub.
The next morning, I went out and searched and it wasn't there. But after watering the plant hanging by the hot tub, I heard a deep sounding insect wings fluttering in the grass. And there it was trying to fly out of the grass about 10 feet from the patio.
I grabbed a rope and it climbed out of the grass on to the rope. I lifted it up to about my waist level. It attempted to fly, and I encouraged it "Go! Go little guy! Go!"
After about five feet of flying parallel to the ground about 3 feet up, it then was able to get some thrust and flew upwards around the tree, and then landed way up high about 25 feet up into the tree. This thing may actually make it! Way to go little buddy. Sorry your swim experience ended so badly, and that you were able to cough up the water and get back to living.
