Funny story with my Vibe

Post by MailGuy! »

So there I was, heading off to work like normal. Another 60 degree Phx morning. I start driving and I hear a buzzing coming from the dash. I tap the top of the dash and the buzzing stops. It starts ups a moment later. I start changing vehicle speed but it stays constant. I run down the list in my head about where the buzzing could be coming from. When I stopped at a stoplight and still heard buzzing I figured ok, not the normal rattle. Must be coming from the hvac system. So I drive a little further and start messing with things like fan speed and settings. The buzzing changes a little with each change of the settings. So, and here's the funny part, I get the fan speed switch on high, set it to defog and just then a honey bee comes shooting out of the vent by the window, bounces off the windshield and hits me in the forhead. I quickly roll the window down and he flies out into the sunrise. All I can say is thank God for coffee. Mornings are stressful enough.All I could think before that bee came out was, great how am I going to get rid of this annoying dash buzz?!

Believe it or not it did not scare me nearly as bad as when I was driving my wife's Beetle and felt an itch on my neck. It was night time. When I went to scratch I felt a Locust the size of a matchbox. The people inside the burger king parking lot I stormed into probably had a good laugh watching the crazy white guy slapping the hell out of himself. I wish this story ended there but no. One of his friends got in the car somehow about 20 min. later and made a surprise apearance on the ceiling 2"s from my head while doing 70 in a monsoon storm. No place to pull over for about 8 miles. Each time I swatted him out of the car he flew back in. These suckers were huge. Getting a little creeped out just thinking about this again.
