Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

You post a long post kiki, someone responds, you repost it. Sometimes over and over. That's not having a discussion. That's trolling and you do it all the time. You and sig also post shit a mile long that nobody is going to read. My idea is that you guys post that shit here. I don't see you two doing that in your own threads comrade.

I cough so much, so hard, I have a nasty headache. My trachea and bronchi hurt. And I have an earache and stuffy nose on top of it all. I think I'm going to go back to bed.

Quote:Originally posted by SIGNYM: Quote:Originally posted by 6IXSTRINGJACK: BTW... How did that weed killer work out for you Sigs? Do Right, Be Right. :) Well, it worked, sort of. After a couple of warm sunny days I could see some weeds dying back ... but only some weeds and only if they were in the sun. The filaree and pineapple weed were very susceptible, but the as far as the cheeseweed and grasses ... as far as they were concerned I may as well have fertilized them. Not comfortable spraying a lot of chemicals in the yard because of the dog and all of the friendly critters that come to visit so I'm planning to use a weed torch. I just need to find out what kind of propane supply and at what price, plus I need to decide whether I want the big 400,000 btu one, the 100,000 btu one, or the 20,000 btu one. The advantage of the smaller one is that you can spot-weed more effectively, the disadvantage is that it takes a lot longer to cover the same square footage because the flame size is so much smaller. I think I need a big one, I have a lot of square feet to cover.

Pretty nice around here right now, but our weekend is going to be frigid... probably the coldest we've seen all season. I can't complain too much though. It's the middle of January and except for Halloween and early November it's been an unseasonably warm winter with very little precipitation.

And I'll feel free to repost something that's true, topical, and worthwhile, despite your attempts at extortion - which btw is blatantly obvious to everyone else, no matter how much you try and disguise it. But, I'm with Jack. Feel free to make enemies and convince no one. I'm sure it goes along with your other horrible life choices.
