The Wicker Man (2006) is so bad it's good masterpiece, Nic Cage gave performance of a lifetime in it, never topped to this day.

For review, yeah this will give you a perspective on a bee’s life in a bad time of life. And the femaleness of the hive.

The the male or drone servitude to honey, bee reproduction, maintaining a hive; you will never feel that you were hard done by if you were ever let go from something again.

It is a bad movie in one sense; you figure it out.

Editors note: Merritt Venue

We recognize some of the landscape roads and building as being shot about Merritt BC.

Bee kind to one another.

There is something bizarre about this presentation will it ever come out?

editor’s. Note: parental controls needed, agonizing death portrayed. Counter culture.

International PI day is recognizes the mathematical formula that can be carried out in a constant form to infinity.

Pi Day is an annual celebration of the mathematical constant π. Pi Day is observed on March 14 since 3, 1, and 4 are the first three significant digits of π. In 2009, the United States House of Representatives supported the designation of Pi Day.
