OT Geez can we stop this now please....
Comments (11)Barb, I dont want you to think I am coming off mean or anything. I just wanted to say that this whole thing wasnt about anyone's "specialty" or anything having to so with plants at all. It's about respect and kindness. It was the sheer fact that she told a child that he may as well be dead..the world is a better place without him..basically that is what she said. That is what 'thinning the gene pool' is. It may be OK to talk that way about plants, but NOT a human life, especially not a child. I apologize to anyone who may have been bothered by anything I said, I am sorry that this had to happen. But..has she apologized to Staticx? hmmm...no, she just disappeared. I just want you all to think about this: if she had said that to YOU..how would you feel? Would you want someone sticking up for you..wouldn't you want someone to say something? I know I'd feel better if someone was on my side backing me up if it had been me. I can't stand by and ignore that kind of thing. NOW, that is all I will say about this..it is over. She had the post removed I suppose since it isnt here any longer. Now we will all move on. Every family has its spats, and as we all know, our group is like a family and I am SOOOO glad to be a part of it, but when someone gets out of line, they need to be straightened out. No one needs to walk on eggshells..there are no loose cannons here. Respect is all that is asked, and it shouldnt have to be asked for..agreed? OK so... Lets all move on and be happy. :) Spring is right around the corner and we have babies and plans and nice things to discuss!...See MoreWho can stop with just one?
Comments (15)Yes I agree. The WC may have only had two eyes up, but there are another 3 ready to go. I try not to be present when mine get delivered. I was outside potting on a 80 plus degree day a couple weeks ago when the mailman pulled in the drive and got my box full of liners out of his trunk and proceeded to throw the box over his shoulder with the arrow saying "this end up live plants" pointing at the ground. I have also heard the UPS guy toss boxes of plants onto the porch with a loud thud! Luckily I haven't had any damaged plants, yet...See MoreBraggin, just can't stop
Comments (29)Just keep braggin girl, this is something worth bragging about, your child's accomplishments and hard work and not to mention your hard work helping her attain her goals. What a wonderful looking family. Congratulations to all. P.S. Sorry I missed you at the Preakness, maybe next year!...See MoreJust say "ugh"
Comments (37)Beets, olives, and bleu cheeses due to taste factor. Raw oysters, for texture (I'll eat them in chowder, so cooked is fine). For health reasons, I can't eat goat cheese. I love cheese, it's just that one, makes my tongue tingly. Better not try it again! Escargot are ok as long as they're not overcooked. It really makes me laugh when people say, ick, no! to organ meat, but to eat muscles is just fine. What makes one ok and the other not? HA! Don't think too hard about it being muscles (and fat)....See More- 10 years ago
