What becomes of hive jostlers

Simultaneously this blog is celebrating its third birthday today with its 1000th post -- and for once I have little to say!

The best story I've come across today is about workers laying a pipeline in Glendale, Arizona on Loop 101 (sounds like a learner driver's skidpan). They were attacked by bees and five of them were taken to hospital with severe stings. The fire department says the workers “jostled” a hive. I must say the jostling bit made me chortle. Jostling indeed!
