Congrats Steelers fans.

if pruned thru proper shrub pruning.. its age is irrelevant ... siting similarity is also irrelevant ... frankly... the cost/benefit ratio ... is your labor worth saving it??? if so.. cut to about 3 feet .... everything... then dig the plant.. using the stubs to drag it across the yard ... then more properly prune it after its all planted .... its deciduous.. so hard pruning is not a problem ... you probably wont get any flowers this year ... its one of those that you can basically run over with the truck if its worth your time and labor.. go for it.... ken

It's funny, hubby and I went out to dinner in Lambertville NJ last night with two other couples, and we realized we'd all forgotten it was Superbowl Sunday. Must be something wrong with us... Most of the restaurants were closed for the Superbowl, and the one we ended up at was virtually empty.

There are always the series of expensive things which boil down to a single item which is "priceless". It was there with 3 seconds left in the game. The TV camera was showing a very jubilant Cowher. For less than 2 seconds, Holmgren was shown and the look on his face was one of those "priceless" things! Many of us Wisconsinites have never forgiven him for walking out on the Packers and then taking Favre's best backup. We'll be back! Martin
