is there any method that works other than trowel and sweat. I've got

Or am I in for a several long sessions on hands and knees followed by
$$$ for cover up mulch.


Thanks Gang!

Local Asian supermarkets in your area might be interested in purchasing
your unwanted garlic chives. This could be the start of a new business
for you and some quick income.

Not with Roundup on them. Black plastic to block sunlight, and to
solarize the area. There is a small field of garlic chives that I drive
by when I go to town. I love the smell. The farmer supplies local
restaurants.

Mad dog Republicans to the right. Democratic spider webs to the left. True conservatives, and liberals not to be found anywhere in the phantasmagoria
of the American political landscape.

America is not broke. The country is awash in wealth and cash.
It's just that it's not in your hands. It has been transferred, in the
greatest heist in history, from the workers and consumers to the banks
and the portfolios of the uber-rich.
