Flight of the Bumblebees

So today I saw some huge bees flying around our patio. It reminded me of a woman whom I used to know. She wore a different bee pendant on her shoulder every day. Nothing gaudy; always tasteful. Once I asked the reason. Her response was, "Aerodynamically, bumblebees can't fly. Their bodies are too big for their wings. They fly because they think they can."

There is much debate about whether or not this is folklore; however, the message will forever remain etched in my memories.
