"Do you think I would have made a good schizophrenic?"

Just a suggestion; The use of present tense makes writing much more immediate.

"Do you think I make a good schizophrenic?"

Do you think?

"I'm having some trouble getting my sourdough starter just right. I think it might be temperature variances that are keeping it from thriving. Does anyone have any tips? And the vinegar in the pickles is not real clear anymore. Is this a natural change or should I be doing something different, or trying a different brand of vinegar. And those lovely birds on the porch are now fully feathered and ready to leave the nest. Has anyone ever tried dog manure on their crooknecked squash instead of bat guano? Speaking of bats, have you ever built a bat house?"

A fine bit of stream of nonconsciousness poetry from Russ, which he shouldn't be allowed to disappear. Though there should have been some skwirrls in there somewhere, perhaps.

shouldn't the title be something like-

"Making an Intellectual Conversation of Threads"

because the thesis doesn't appear attempt define Contribution. which, in this context, occurs everytime someones clicks the 'Post this Reply' button, for better or worse.

Well Russ, since you asked, both dog sh#t and bat guano on crookneck squash tastes like, well, sh#t. There, I said it.

I really think you could have figured this out for yourself though.

In the future, please do not hijack serious threads, OK????


LEB, yes, this year seems to be a great one for productivity in the garden. I have no idea why or how, cause we had a drought down south at the first part of the summer.

A warning on the heirloom cherry tomato, "Large Red Cherry"-- this plant is the godzilla of tomato plants. It grows three times as fast as any other I have seen, and soon will be knocking on the door demanding water and fertilizer. I swear if you stretched it out straight it woudl be tewnty feet, and is not even close to slowing down, in fact, it seems to be picking up steam. If I ever plant them again, it will be one plant only, not three. They are covered in fruit, which is good if you like cherry tomatos, but I have decided that they don't taste all that good, DOH!

The Ace heirloom tomato is also not so great. Oh well.

BUT, the Volkov and the German Red Strawberry varieties are very good, and are worth doing again.

The Cowhorn okra is also very good, tastes better I think than Clemson Spineless, and is more prolific as well.

Now if I only had a way to defeat the evil squash borer.

Interesting Russ. a well thought out reply..There was a Robin in my yard this morning. I thought I heard windchimes but it turned out to be a scrub jay with its head stuck in an OE can.
