4. Watch the Giant Jumbotron for the temp to drop to 45F.
5. Wait for bees to go dormant.


I once discovered just after takeoff that a bee was inside the plane
with me, so I figgured I was probably in for getting stung and just
simply accepted the possibility of a sting and instead paid full
attention to my flying. After climbing to 9500MSL I noticed the bee had
passed out on the back seat and stayed dormant for the entire 3 hour
flight home. After I landed and was getting my stuff out of the plane,
the bee finally aroused and flew out the door. Apparently the rapid
change in altitude from near sea level to 9.5K had a physiological
effect on the bee that put it out for a while. I just wonder if the bee
ever made it back home :-)
