May Flowers?

The saying goes "April showers brings May flowers" so where the hell are all the bee's. This whole story starts out when I went to visit my old man a couple of weeks ago like any good son should do, even brought him an egg sandwich w/coffee. So I sit down to eat knowing that I'm going to get my share of him telling me that my brother is a bum. So I change the subject a few times and then he starts going on how the bee population is down like 70%. Now I'm thinking to myself where the hell does he come up with this stuff I mean he's home all day does he just make stuff up. I'll say the way he was going on it sounded like some apocalyptic movie that all the plants wont be pollinated crops wont grow I'm sure you get the point. Now tonight I'm sitting here at work and got time to kill when I come across this. What the hell is going on!! People will say that the end of the world has already started, I guess all the events are in place. What do you think?
