This whole discussion has left me a Ball of Confusion. If you need me I'll be Up on the Roof, with Scotch and Soda, until The words "Ah Woe, Ah Me" stop echoing through the Canyons of My Mind". Expect me back either in Half a Moment, or in the Year 2525 (or sometime between)

I forget, is it nicotinoids or cannabinoids that one takes for earworms?

Okay, no more songs...I'm stuck somewhere between 2525 and the Canyons with an occasional echo of Paranoia Runs Deep.
And so, did all of you fill out the lovely little USDA farm survey?
What a silly form. What can I say about how many tons of corn seed I put up in canning jars in the freezer? Online I can't write .008 for how much kale I planted. Really? a 10th of an ace of Kale. Gag, choke, really? So I had to physically fill in the form with lots of circles and arrows and paragraphs on the back, depicting each one.
Should I have just attached a photo?
Where it says beans, seeds, tons- I put a star and wrote 20 quart canning jars.
I couldn't figure out a code for lupinis or favas.
Oh, save me save me save me from this squeeze.
How I love the Kinks. I'll be singing tonight till Leo tells me to put a sock in it. You know I can't carry a tune right? I start okay, and then I go hunting for notes. Sometimes I never find them, but I keep looking. So there will be no singing in public. But that's okay, with all your help, they can just run through my mind, or the echos of my mind.

To continue in the same musical vein... I wonder if the perpetrators of this fraud realize that "Paranoia may destroy ya"

In my meanderings on the internet, I found another survival seed collection for sale, called a "Survival Seed Vault". This item has much the same selection of varieties & a similar seed count, but it's packed in a steel can & sells for about 80% less than what the other twits are asking. They make some of the same claims, but bite into your wallet a lot less... ;D www.mypatriotsupply.com/Articles.asp?ID=245

Went back to check on Mr. Brawdy and the Senior Botanist. Still the same video at basically the same price. So the scam must be ticking along for them if they don't need to update anything to sweeten the pot. Only thing different you seem to be getting these days is an ebook on growing heirlooms. Hope you still have electricity when the crash comes so you can read your ebook on growing your survival seeds after you dig them up. I also note with interest that they claim on the bottom of the main page that to put the same package of seed together yourself would cost $600. I bet I could do it for under $50 without breaking a sweat.

I like green beans and we can a lot of them. I like pole beans best cause you don't have to stoop to pick them. I also like the "dry" bean types but am I the only one who eats green bean types dry? I figure if the world ended or whatever and we didn't have enough canning jars or firewood we would just eat some fresh green beans each year and let the rest dry. They cook quick and have some of the same flavor as they do green.

I also like the "dry" bean types but am I the only one who eats green bean types dry? I use green bean seed as dry beans. They work fine... The main difference as far as I can tell is that some of the "green" beans tend to keep producing beans for an extended time, while beans that have been selected for "dry" beans tend to be more determinate and to produce a crop all at once. Makes harvesting easier because I can pick/thresh whole plants instead of picking pods.
