Not a good day for consumable liquid.

You have to love science. "Science" has determined that after having 500 volunteers watch many many movies the winner of the all-time saddest movie is . . . . THE CHAMP (1979). I watched the trailer and that is 2 minutes and 13 seconds I wish I could get back. INTRODUCING RICKIE SCHROEDER. That is sad in itself. And what about those 500 volunteers. That is one cheery group I tell ya. Yea - I want to watch a hundred or so of the saddest movies...

Are Those Fries French?

I'm a little sad because a few of the people that made Columbus feel like home are moving of have moved away.  When DJ and I moved to Columbus our very first experience with the towns people of Columbus were the were the people running Sharrow Drug and we knew this was a great little town after that experience with real friendly people (not just polite).  They are not leaving.  However once Public Enemies started we came into contact...

Complete liquidation

OK - I'll come right point and say it. I'm glad Japan won the World Cup. There, it's out there and I can't take it back.Actually I really could care less (which is an odd saying, it should be I CAN'T care less). Not a soccer fan and come on, Japan has had a rough year. I did not see one second of the World Cup and I know the tears were running down the streets of America but in 2 weeks no one will even remember the horrific loss (was it?). What...

Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster

Getting right to the point - what you want to get to kill Jap Beetles is this stuff.  Bonide Eight Insect Control kills the Beetles and will protect your plants for UP TO FOUR WEEKS (which to me means from one hour to four weeks).  I take a trip around the yard each day and spray on all infected plants.  Seems the beetles are drawn to certain plants, for me I start with my prized dogwood, move over to the shasta daisies and purple...
