I've been to that place, it was in Kingman. They tried to sell me tyres at $400 each.

That seems pretty inflated.

That seems pretty inflated.

And it was about 8 years ago. They were trying to rip off the dumb Aussie. But the tyres on the car were pretty ordinary, they were scrubbed down to the wire on the inside. Rang the son in law and he found a place in the town that was heaps cheaper

Do you know much about Varroa Mite?

I know what it is, but I have no professional experience with them.

Some moron customs officers didn't do their job at the local port and they're running rampant around here now.

Apiculture is, sadly, one of the areas of entomology that I have little practical knowledge about. They were not teaching it during my turn at grad school.

Unfortunately, that is all it takes.

Do you keep bees?

No but I grow plants to attract the little native bees which aren't affected by the mites but they're putting out poison baits to kill the feral honey bee population and its also wiping out the natives and anything else that feeds on nectar. And I'm assuming anything that eats the dead bees. It's stupidity followed by more stupidity.

As I recall, Kingman is a pretty right-wing area. It's been a while since I've been up that way. Fortunately, I've never had to buy tires there.

Dog chases bird which takes flight. One of @ChristineM 's kitties who has been watching all this from a high place makes a mighty leap with claws extended and the bird moves on to his next life in a new body.

Lazy cats wait with mouth open for the bird to land on it.

Never works for some reason but im not telling them why

Man Caught Urinating, Defecating on Ex-Wife's Grave: 'Bad Breakup' (newsweek.com)

They were divorced in 1974 and have had no contact since 1976. Talk about holding a grudge.

ANew Jersey man was caught urinating on his ex-wife's grave nearly five decades after their divorce.

Michael Andrew Murphy was horrified as he captured the desecration on September 18. The gravesite in the Tappan Reformed Church Cemetery in Orangetown, New York, was the resting place of his mother, Linda Torello.

Murphy told local news outlets that his mother's ex-husband was leaving feces and urine at his mother's headstone for months, apparently holding onto a grudge from the 1970s. The suspect, 68-year-old Dean Eichler, was briefly married to Torello before they divorced in 1974.

Some comments to this article were attributing this man's anger to the fact that he lives in New Jersey.

"There's been no contact since '76. I know they were married for a year. They had a bad breakup," Murphy told News 12 New Jersey. "This should never happen to anybody."

He said he and his sister started finding deli bags filled with feces at their mother's grave in April. They figured the first one might have been dropped by a careless dog walker, but after the second bag, they got the police involved.

The cemetery allowed them permission to set up cameras, which recently revealed Eichler approaching the grave while his current wife waited in the car. The culprit continued to appear around 6:15 a.m. for four days in a row, but the images were not totally clear.

The next day, on September 18, Murphy visited the cemetery and filmed the man with his cell phone. What he saw made him feel ill, he said on Facebook, where he posted the incriminating video.

"This is breaking my [heart]," said his caption. "A man from Bergen county New Jersey has been leaving bags of poo and pissing on my mother's tombstone almost every morning like a normal routine assisted by his wife. Also, we have weeks and months of evidence."

In a follow-up video, he said, "I'm sick. My sisters, my brothers, we're drained."

The Orangetown Police Department confirmed to the Daily Voice that Eichler has received a summons for urinating in public and detectives are investigating further, and there's a possibility of more serious charges.

Cemetery desecration, which may involve stealing from or vandalizing a plot, grave or burial place, can be prosecuted in New York state if the damages exceed $250.

Murphy has met this threshold for damages after hiring a hazmat company to remove his mother's urine-soaked decorations, having her headstone professionally cleaned and replacing some of the surrounding grass, he told the Daily Voice.

Newsweek reached out to Murphy and the Orangetown Police Department for comment.
