Looks like a wild cherry (Prunus serotina is the common one for me). These growths are formed by insects - very common occurrence and not harmful.

That's cool about your ancestor, Hoov! On my Dad's side we apparently have a headless ghost that haunts some northern town, lol. My Dad's cousin played for the greatest Yankee teams ever, with Lou Gherig and folks, '36 to '38 and got traded to the Brooklyn Dodgers that year. Dad knew him, and I see his closer relatives all the time out here, where he was born. Kemp Whicker [misspelled Wicker often]. I get motion-sick, too! Or did, rather and now it will be a migraine instead. Still the same ole triggers. Embarrassing asking to sit in the front seat as an adult ;] I can see computer refresh rates and flourescent light flickers at a frequency that is odd for humans to see... goes back to migraines, lol. Not a good superpower ;] ealoudermilk, I'm actually that way too, to a certain extent. It's scary how goofy I am in real life. I'm goofier here than in real life in public 'cos I don't much care, lol [not a bad thing to y'all, I assure you]. Oh, I'm definitely mored scared of smaller aircraft. I want to skydive but would have to be pushed out and I'd throw up and scream at the whole first part. Still want to do it, though. The 2nd part sounds worth it. I adore Chicory coffee! I like blackstrap molasses in mine! More than 3 answers is great, too, LOL and appreciated to see all y'all folks!!. I use TV as background noise 'cos I always have tinitis. Can stand silence but prefer white noise so I don't hear the constant high beep. I'm definitely a dork. Dorks unite! I figure if it's more fun than being contrived [which I have to do to be undorky] than so be it! I remind my Dad of his eccentric silly aunt with 11 cats in a very small house [& she was loaded] down to her never having kids but always having a ball with the neighborhood children. It's OK, I LOVED her :)

Stan: The more pertinent issue at hand is bandwidth use. Sure, just using the image in this forum is protected under the notion of 'fair use', but embedding an image from *their* server without expressed consent is clearly bandwidth theft. If Epl had rehosted the image on a server of their own, there would be no problem whatsoever. Having said that, I'd also like to point out how completely ridiculous it would be for the people hosting that image to give Epl any grief about hotlinking it. Even if thousands of people view this thread, it will only be tens of megabytes of bandwidth, which won't cost more than a few cents...

The non-Jade looks like a Haworthia. The Jade plant is a small-leafed (aka compact) Jade. It could be Crosby's Compact. Josh
