When you leave the cut grass laying around instead of removing it (which is only doable if you have a little town lawn), the cut grass acts as fertilizer. |

After that just scraggly > ugly bushes the rest of the year. I think the worst are magnolias. I don't know if they flower longer in the south than they do here but what I typically see here is a tree that is suddenly in full bloom with white flowers. The next day it is a tree with some white flowers and a lot of litter on the ground around it. By day four it is a tree with a pile of white litter under it. |

It was 6 months ago, first week of November. A 2-liter bottle of root beer. I was expecting a very long phone call the next week and thought it might be nice to have for that. Phone call ended up being fairly short so I never opened it. It's still in my fridge, unopened. |

Yabbut, you don't cook fish at home because it schtinks, and you only go to restaurants twice a year (Italian sausage sub and Gold Coin Chinese). So shut the fuck up, you know-it-all-nothing. -sw |

I call her "owl eyes" like she keeps them open a bit more than normal. She always appears as stunned or surprised and maybe innocent looking. She doesn't fool me though. She hates Trump personally more than the Republican party. |

Politics aside, I can hardly think of a less likeable person than Trump. He also has the completely wrong character for the job. I can't imagine he has attracted many new voters during his term. |

Feed the pets. Other household chores. *Before* they go to the store. You make it sound like getting up at 4AM and shopping early is some kind of *Princely* thing to do. Heh. Jill |
