Can Anyone Identify this bug?

These bugs have been showing up in my garden. I only ever see one at a time but I've killed a few so I know there's more than one.
Haven't noticed them causing any problems.bug.jpg

I'll answer my own question. I found it after some looking around. It's a Boxelder bug, harmless to humans and not a significant threat to plant life.

THAT'S BOB!, hey Bob.
that's a box elder bug, we had a ton of the fuckers growing up, from the box elder hedge we had in the back yard. they're related to stink bugs, not a threat to weed as far as i know.
they do eat some plants, so i guess it wouldn't be a bad idea to kill any you see in the house, but i wouldn't freak out over them.
