Hope you have a great day, and may the sun shine, and the rain be gentle in the night.

Thanks friends. It sure is the best year garden wise, I finally am fulfilling my dream of producing commercially, even at a small scale. It makes me feel like a totally different person, and I LOVE IT. Sammy, I strongly agree with the gentle rain of the night, but could you use your higher connections ( ) to ask him for a little bit less please...21 days of rain in a 24 days old month is just a bit too much... Here is George Carlin, Plantsnobin gave me my best gift in a long time by making me discover him www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeSSwKffj9o |

I'LL GET THE SET MY DEAR, BET ON IT. iT SURE IS AVAILABLE HERE. Even my son came home talking about his death. From here, it looks to me he will become more of a celebrity for the french canadians now that he is gone. Sad in a way, this guy is soooo in sync with the french canadian people. When I was a kid, we were a pwople obedient to the chuch to the point of almost slavery. We had the highest birthrate in the world, average of 11 kids per family, because the priests would condem women who did not manufacture them in large enough quantities. I know a grandmother who was told to be more diligent todo her ''duty'' after 14 kids. We listened to the rosary on national radio , every night. We were told to obey the bosses at the factory because they were the ''autority'', and the church fought alongside the dark government of Maurice Duplessis against unionisation. Because of these bastards my grandfather was working barefoot in a dangerous papermill because he could not afford shoes, and was told by them it was his destiny to be poor. With the quiet revolution in the 60's, we threw the bastards out in half a generation time. We now have the lowest birthrate in the industrialised world, the emptiest churches, the smallest wedding rate in the country. Whatever they used to represent, we piss on it. So this guy is a quite welcomed guest in my house. And does he not shit in the pants of the government and the big corps or what ? Thanks GG too.!! 50 now. I am a born again non-christian |
