Hello everyone, I just got back in from my rock shop - also known as John's Slab Shack I went out and checked my 10# Gy-Roc viberating tumbler. I noticed a beetle on the lid getting bounced all around and I figured that it was dead ... much to my surprise it was alive and doing to most awesome break dancing you have ever seen ;D I took the poor bug off of the lid and put it on my bench and if you have ever watched the old Road-Runner cartoons then you will know exactly what it looked like ... the bug would take a couple of steps and then it appeared as though his whole body would shake ;D. Talk about drop to your knees funny, I nearly wet my pants! I couldn't take it anymore ... I took the beetle outside and tossed him into the weeds. Oh, the pleasures of life Have a great day! John

Hope the little bugger recovers. You will get your reward for sending him back to his home. Look for some small gratification in the next few days, that'll be him!

Thanks for sharing this nice event with us John,
I actualy thought that beetlemania was from the 1960ties.
I'm sure he (she) had a lot of fun dancing....
Your rescue mission was heroic

OMG That is soo funny. I guess I'll never get my wings, if I would have found him, I'd a squished him. (Don't like bugs in the house.)
You a good bug buddy John *smile*
