St. Ambrose and the Killer Bee, Jacquelyn McBain

St. Ambrose is the patron saint of bees. "There is a legend that as an infant, a swarm of bees settled on his face while he lay in his cradle, leaving behind a drop of honey. His father considered this a sign of his future eloquence and honeyed tongue. For this reason, bees and beehives often appear in the saint's symbology." (the mighty wiki)

Sorry for the off topic, Z. Thank God your back! I was starting to worry. It seems we may have just lost Ceeboo. Nice to know that you are still here.

Please go back to the regularly scheduled program.
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.

Oh, I'm always here, Quas. If you don't see my name at the bottom of the screen, just know I'm here in spirit.

Thank God *you* are still here!
