Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

about having a bee stuck in your underpants, is being able to later tell people that once you had a bee stuck in your underpants.

The same truth applies to having a bee stuck in your motorcycle helmet.

reminds me of a time I was cutting hot peppers and then used the restroom without washing my hands first!

You gentlemen need to be more careful. I've never had any of those things happen.

I've thankfully never experienced anything quite like that. I have, however, been passed by a poultry truck; it took nearly an hour to get that fowl stench out of my helmet.

I've been there. It's no joke.

I strongly recommend the wearing of latex gloves whilst cutting those capsicums.

Of course, that's no help with the bee problem...

When I was 6 years old I had a bee fly up my nose while I was riding my bike. It is much more fun (and less bloody) telling about it than it was experiencing it.

So, is that a bee in your underwear, or are you just happy to see me? :o

Sometimes washing your hands isn't enough. I do my absolute best now to hold chiles with a fork when I'm cutting them up.

The first "incident of this type" that happened to me was in high school, when I put Atomic Balm on a pulled groin muscle. With chiles you burn for only six minutes, with AB it was hours.

I take issue with this. It was more like forty minutes. I showered three times. It was agony. I suspect the foreskin may have been involved in recontamination.

I've found that the same holds true for having eaten a bee, albeit unwillingly. They do taste nice and sweet, but boy do they have a sharpness! :oops: Of course, you can't recite the story until the swelling of the tongue goes down.

When I was a kid, I blew a macaroni through my nose. It had nothing to do with bees at all.

Probably different for different parts of the body, or maybe your exposure was greater. I suspect the six minutes rule is for the mouth.

Believe me, you have my empathy.

I'm not completely sure where this conversation is going.
