Okay, FF peeps... anyone got any idea what the hell this thing is? My wife just fished it out of the pool and is having a minor panic attack over it.

my first reaction is "AAAAAAAAAAAA RUN".
- D. Eda Goze
Just for scale folks, its twice as big as the june bugs and wasp I fished out.
- Trish Benningfield
It's a beetle of some sort.
- John (bird whisperer)
Oh yeah--we have those all the time. It's a "Death Monger." Totally harmless. (No idea what I'm talking about)
- Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
It's dead, I skimmed it from the pool... but where did it come from... where do they live, good lord are there more and will they miss their leader and come looking for him??

is that a stinger or a leaf its on?
- D. Eda Goze
Nice work, Heather! D., I don't think that's a stinger. It might be the hindwings.
- John (bird whisperer)
Heather: That is definitely it! Wow. And Eda, that's no leaf.

I'm done outside. I'm staying inside the rest of the day.

Heather: "Long, sedentary beetle in NJ" <--- that's a band name waiting to happen! In fact, I'd go so far as to say it's a name waiting to happen in a broad range of categories.
- Micah
Thank you everyone! But we live in Arkansas, how on earth did it get here?
- Trish Benningfield
All I can find about their range is "Eastern North America".

It would go to his 'estate' - family?

Good observation. I would assume his will would give the rights to his kids?

- Akiva
In all seriousness, if it's kept in the estate, I can bet you that'll be one of the first assets to be sold.
- Akiva
I thought Paul McCartney bought them back some time ago.
- travispuk
I thought MJ had sold at least some of them to Paul during his recent financial woes?
- R. Ferguson
CNN just said he owns half the catalog. I don't know who owns the other half, or even if that's correct.
- Steve Lowe
Rumor here... http://www.clevelandleader.com/node...
- Trish Benningfield
I'd assume that they'd need to be sold to pay estate taxes.
- Thomas Hawk
The rumor from MSNBC is that MJ willed the catalog to Paul McCartney (he owns 50% and sold the other half to Sony years ago).
- Peter Ghosh
Ah, it would be interesting if he actually did will them to Paul, wouldn't it. They would have kinda gone full circle then. I wonder if yoko would be pissed.

I'm guessing his creditors do, unless he had any estate left at all.
- Dave Roth
"In 1998 [Jackson] took out a loan for $140 million from Bank of America, which two years later was upped to $200 million. Further loans of hundreds of millions followed. The collateral for the loans was Mr. Jackson’s 50 percent share in Sony/ATV Music Publishing, a portfolio of thousands of songs, including more than 259 by the Beatles that are considered some of the most valuable...

QUESTION: You have the oppotunity to take a trip in space and explore a far-away world. Money is no object, and you have a reasonably good chance of surviving the trip. But there is also a chance that you will be gone for many years from earth. Do you stay, or do you go?

Sadly, I don't care for their onion rings, and the tots are only good IMO with chili and cheese. I have a rule about only eating one chili-cheese coated item per meal, so it's always fries (dipped in BBQ sauce) with my Coney.

Yeah, I could see how you could dislike their onion rings since they taste like donut batter, but I find the taste simply irresistible...like crack in the shape of an onion ring.
