Try a Gin and tonic. It's old fashioned-y. Makes me think of old British geezers sitting with fans on a porch in pre-independent India yammering on about shooting stuff. I don't know why that makes me laugh but it does. I think it's because I read Freedom At Midnight and all those geezers had to...

Re: Republicans tried to change the Constitution at least 42 times in the current con One of the main reasons why the USofA has survived as a nation for so long is because of the flexibility of the Constitution. When the original meaning of an Amendment no longer has relevance it's time to...

Osama bin Laden was a Saudi. Hmmmmm....

That would be cool. I couldn't find any either. Money is a big issue with farmers. Buying new, expensive equipment can put your ass on the auction block. It's important to stay lean and mean in the farming game. Very important to watch every penny. People don't realize what farmers go...

Which people involved are you opposed to? (And I took the time to read all of the posts between my post and the one below. I did not see an answer to this question.) Is it Feisal Abdul Rauf? Because this guy is a moderate and he has openly condemned al-Qaeda and anyone affiliated with it. If...

It's unfortunate that this microbe is cold-water. They'll never clean the marshes if this is true. :( If the oil spill is clearing up then there's a good chance oil drilling will start up again in The Gulf.

Yes, the KKK is still around and they march in parades. I'm not going to put a link here to their site. I have no intention of promoting them by giving their site another hit. Regarding the Muslim community center.... The point remains that if the local government can deny or prevent one...

That picker is in R&D phase. Peaches and other fruit for the table must be picked by hand to prevent bruising. Fruit that will be used in products like jams can be picked by machinery. Try picking blackberries by machine. You'll get a mushy mess. I read a book called Coyote that changed my...

Hand picked crops just off the top of my head: citrus and peaches. (I used to live in Florida.)

Not all crops can be picked by machine. Many require labor in the fields. How did they hire Mexicans over Americans legally? The only way to hire on a visa is if they can't fill the jobs with Americans.

You miss understood me. Put the other 2 plans in place first. Then if the fence is needed, spend the money and do that as well. After these 2 plans are implemented I think you'll find that the fence will not be the deterrent to workers as much as it is to the gun and drug smugglers.

I don't have plans to see Eat, Love, Pray. I have 2 friends who picked up the book. One loved it, the other couldn't finish it.

That is very strange. Maybe there's something in an onion that the bird needs. Vitamins/minerals? Dunno. Never knew a cardinal would eat an onion, though. It's not time yet for bunching onions to be planted here. I just put in all my second season crops: pole beans summer squash (almost...

Whoa! I said this somewhere already about the red tape and length of time to get to the US to work legally! :eek: GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!! */puts on tin foil hat HA! yeah! try to steal my thoughts now, MF'er! (see below response to both you and Goth.) (see below response to both you and...

End of season 3 and start of season 4? I have seen every delicious episode. It is hilarious. Loved the artwork that Zaboo brings over to Codex' place. LOL! Like something out of a "romance novel." :lol2:

A cardinal!?! Unexpected! Really! I didn't think a bird would eat the onion leaves. I haven't seen anything online about it either. Do you see "onions" anywhere in this reference? Neither do I. You have one hellofa freaky bird on your hands. :rofl: http://www.birdhouses101.com/cardinal-diet.asp

Pickled them last night and used a plastic sandwich bag over my hand to prevent getting the typical jalapeno burn. The knife was serrated and I think it punctured the sandwich bag (or it was a poor quality sandwich bag). I felt a little wetness in the bag while I was working but it didn't burn...

I wasn't actually sick. I just called in "sick" to get the day off. I'm using up all of my 2 weeks of vacation in September to go to France. But thanks anyway. :)

Not sure if any of you have watched The Guild episodes online. They are fucking hilarious. Thought I'd share if you haven't yet found it. http://www.watchtheguild.com/

OH, forgot to tell you. I harvested a ton of basil this morning (I'm at home "sick"). I found an article online that suggested taking the leaves and tender stems and putting them in a food processor with olive oil, then stuffing it in cubes and freezing them. I just did just that and I'll...
