Keep workin' the soil. -- - Billy Both the House and Senate budget plan would have cut Social Security and Medicare, while cutting taxes on the wealthy. Kucinich noted that none of the government programs targeted for elimination or severe cutback in House Republican spending plans "appeared on the GAO's list of government programs at high risk of waste, fraud and abuse." http://www.politifact.com/ohio/state...is-kucinich/re p-dennis-kucinich-says-gop-budget-cuts-dont-targ/ [W]e have the situation with the deficit and the debt and spending and jobs. And itıs not that difficult to get out of it. The first thing you do is you get rid of corporate welfare. Thatıs hundreds of billions of dollars a year. The second is you tax corporations so that they donıt get away with no taxation. - Ralph Nader http://www.democracynow.org/2011/7/19/ralph_naders_solution_to_debt_crisis |

So much for my garden Chris We almost never see freezing weather here. One winter, however, I lost several plants to a severe freeze. The local nursery advised me to ignore the possibility of a repeat freeze since they happen once in 10 years or less. In the years since then, that proved to be very good advice. How often is your garden affected by a hurricane or tropical storm? Maybe you should ignore the possibility of a repeat catastrophe in your garden. On top of that, bulbs, perennials, and most shrubs will come back by themselves. -- David E.

Unless the firmly planted tomato cages get airborn, I've got little to worry about. There's always next year C |
