Control+C stores whatever you highlighted in the clipboard. Control+V will paste that stored information into wherever your cursor is positioned (even in a file accessed by another program).

Cuz I didn't know what control + V did.

An answer to a question from AskMefi my latest time waster... But I learn so much! I was pasting it to a word document.

"How do bees bring back pollen?
Pollen is gathered, at random, from plants when bees brush their legs against the flower’s interior where it clings to the bees legs so that one can actually see little yellow, red, green, brown, black, purple (pollen comes in all different colors as the flowers are all different) pollen seeds – their legs look like they are wearing puffed up colored socks. The gathered pollen is sticky.

How does the bee keeper get the pollen?
The bee keeper sets up a ‘trap entrance’ which brushes off the collected pollen from their legs when they enter through the grate – it is then gathered in a small tray. The bee is not harmed nor is it bothered. A bee keeper would only set up a certain number of hives for gathering this pollen.

Does pollen make honey?
No. Bees make honey from Nectar - the juice of the plant. Pollen is the 'sticky dust' on the flower which is brushed off as the bee passes from flower to flower (pollination) - these gather on her legs as little pellets/granules (sacks) and the co lour varies from orange to yellow, black to purple, green to brown.... As the flowers are all different. Pollen gathering by the bee is intentional. She goes from plant to plant gathering the pollen in her mouth, then compacts it and puts the pollen onto her legs thus making pollen balls which are very visible as she flies back to her hive.

Do you steal the pollen from the bees?
No - but we do take some of it. The pollen itself is the bee's protein so it would not be wise to deprive them of it. Bee keeping is a symbiotic relationship – we both survive through each other. The bees do not use all that is collected so on selective hives and only at selective times do we use a 'catcher' which is placed at the hive's entrance - the pollen pellets/granules are then brushed off the bee's legs into a tray as she enters. This is a simplified explanation but it serves to answer the question.

How is pollen good for you and what do I look for when buying it?
Some report that it gives them energy. One should look for a variety of color as all flowers/plants are different.

How would I use pollen if I were to buy it?
Sparingly, a little at a time, to begin with - the reason being to see if you will have an adverse reaction such as stomach aches, heat flashes, rash, closing of the throat, increase in blood pressure. One begins with a few pellets each day to 'test' one’s reaction then increases to teaspoons etc. Pollen can be taken with jam /yogurt /in cereal/ tea/ eaten straight (though it does taste pasty)... ALL pollen needs to be kept in the freezer - shelf life 4 months then it gets 'hairy' which means time to throw it out - being kept IN the freezer will not 'block' freeze it so do not worry about the ability to spoon it out. There is none."

These guys are in the Los Angeles area, are successful bee keepers, and sell raw honey at local Farmer's Markets. Email them if you have any other questions - they will answer.

Most likely, it will be Erika, Klaus' wife, who responds to questions. I've met tons of "bee folk," but never anyone as knowledgeable as Klaus and Erika, FWIW.

- Cheers!

How boring. Was sending some cast photos to a guy from a local magazine who's writing an article on our show (Rocky Horror!) but it's a pretty boring quote for y'all, lol.

Norwegian I believe. I speak some Swedish and understand a little bit of Norwegian and Danish as well, although I can't quite tell what this says beyond "It is [??]. They should be taken outside and [??]." which doesn't really make much sense.

Curious, why'd you have this in your clipboard patheral?

I guess I should have explained that one... hahaha! It is Norwegian, and it says something along the lines of "That is terrible. They should be taken outside and executed." The reason why it was on the clipboard is that a friend of mine had her facebook hijacked and the person who did so switched the language to Norwegian and deleted several of her friends. So I2D2 decided to leave that message on her facebook. The ctrl +v is actually from his clipboard.

I2D2 has a strange sense of humor.
