Re: [RC] Bees get a bad rap?? - Chelsea Marsh

Great, now I'm going to be paranoid every time I go to put on my helmet!
That does not sound like it felt too great. I've never been stung by
anything yet (whether it's a bee...wasp...scorpion)though I've been
around plenty. It's probably going to happen anytime now! My dad had
always told me that if you are going riding horses, you are going to
fall off at least once. So after I fell off the first time I figured I
was good for life! Umm...it didn't quite work out that way! Hmm....does
that same rule apply to being stung by something? It's going to happen
at least once? Oh well, I'd rather be stung by a scorpion (or a bee or
wasp) than get bit by a rattle snake. The joys of Arizona!

OUCHIE. This fall, I grabbed my riding helmet out of the cabinet in the
tack room, slapped it on my head and felt a stabbing pain... yup,  yellow
jacket.

I read this and hurt for you !!!

I had another unpleasant experience at an after-ride steak BBQ.  I put a
bite of steak into my mouth and immediately felt a sharp pain.  A YJ was
still attached to the steak.  It hurt, and my tongue swelled and became
numb, but it did not block my breathing as a couple of worried riders
sitting next to me thought might happen.
