May be we should call them Victory Over the UN Gardens.

I like it!

Now I have another purpose for my own organic garden. I can grow veggies to protest U.S. involvement with the U.N.

Ever heard of milorganite? It’s made from human waste and should never be used on edible plants.

But it’s hella-awesome on lawns!

Let’s be clear. The reason we don’t use milorganite to fertilize food crops is the “high” level of heavy metals in it, not because it is of human waste. Fine and dandy, and it does a great job greening up the lawn, but here in MA much of fertilizer produced by the MWRA (our version of milorganite) is shipped by rail car to FL where it is used on orange groves. Why? Because the state’s acceptable level of heavy metals in fertilizer is by order of magnitude lower than that of the federal government or of FL. Thus, when testing determines that the fertilizer exceeds the state limits it get shipped elsewhere. Ironic that there are people served by the MWRA that cannot fertilize their lawn with a byproduct of their own poop, yet can have a glass of orange juice this morning produced with that same product. In fact, cities and towns can obtain as much of this fertilizer for their municipal use as they like for free (shipping and applying not included) yet I know of one city that flatly rejects the offer because they do not want to “contaminate” their city parks with any heavy metals (which they themselves contributed to producing) and opt for a fertilizer made from poultry by-products (yuck). Gives new meaning to the phrase “my s*** doesn’t stink”, doesn’t it?

And people wonder why I’m a conservative…

Fresh from the grove to you, cheers!

It’s not eight years! Get that thinking out of your head. It’s four. FOUR years.

I would have thought that our little to-and-fro was evidence of my memorization of that particular movie ;)

Dammit, it’s been awhile.

I woulda caught it had it been a Caddyshack quote.

Don’t make me work up a number 6 on you….

My british ears are not too well attuned to authentic frontier gibberish.

Watch Blazing Saddles and you’ll get an education.

Hint: Clevon Little is kinda like Obama and the HA crowd is kinda like the Slim Pickens character.

Did someone say “the President is a-nearin’?”

I just hope the Chief Justice doesn’t extend a laurel and hearty handshake

Camptown Ladies?

Here’s a hymn we can all enjoy:

Church Congregation: [singing] Now is a time of great decision / Are we to stay or up and quit? / There’s no avoiding this conclusion: / Our town is turning into shit. Amen.

Great Leader is pleased.

Camptown Ladies?

No.

Is it too late for 0bama to include more inclusivness by inviting Michael Newdow for a ‘prayer’?

Brat on January 14, 2009 at 3:18 PM

He could throw a soiree for the Aryan Brotherhood too

HA! They won’t even let the Southern belles in hoop skirts stroll in the inaugural parade!! RAAAACYST!

But they will allow Espicoplian Bishops belles, apparently.

What we need is a new General Sherman to march through DC.

The only way to get decent tomatoes is to grow your own.

Dope too, and we all know Great Leader has inhaled.

At least for the next four years.
