I raise a lot of our food. It's healthy, fresh, and delicious - 11 varieties of herbs, veggies, fruits, nuts, grapes, berries. Just harvested garlic. Check out these pods, the biggest I've ever grown. I have 40' of row to harvest just in garlic. Taters, asparagus, cukes, maters, melons, peppers, etc. I'd raise livestock if I had the heart to slaughter them but I'd end up naming them and make a pet out of them.

I put in about 60 tomato plants of varying kinds, some strawberries in containers and lots of peppers, greens, and squash the last couple of days. Waiting for rain to put in more potatoes, beans and cukes. You are far more ambitious on the garlic than me. I have a few going in buckets. You may have inspired me to do some more. My hens are getting broody, so I'm playing god and trying to decide who gets to hatch out chicks or not. Some of the young roosters will probably make the ultimate sacrifice later this fall. It is a good feeling to eat a meal and know where it came from isn't it?

If all that's available is minimum wage jobs, you have to take it unless you want to starve. That's the reality faced by more than 10 million working poor Americans

Taxes ARE taken without consent in many instances. Please don't rationalize or cite a "social contract" which is such a rationalization that when somebody asks to see it, it must be admitted it is invisible.

Sorry, no consent is required, and seldom, pretty much never, is given. So.........not false.

Minimum wage jobs are not all that is available, tho. Very few, perportionately, work for minimum wage. The unemployed don't starve in this country.. So not reality at all.

no need to fertilize, i get all my soil recycled from an organic dispensary.

this whole legal weed thing has its benefits, even if it is slowly cutting into my bottom line.

I'm glad that you garden. After a childhood of candy from the badman it's probably good for you to eat some fresh food.

No, but teasing you about your potty training was, it seems to have lost its luster though lately. Can you come up with another interesting idiot story from your past please? I'm sure there must be hundreds of them.

When you sign the W4, you are consenting to be taxed. If you don't want to be taxed, don't sign the W4.

Oh Robby, you so silly!

How much skunk could a skunk ape smoke if a skunk ape could smoke skunk?

I don't know, but I crossed an El Jefe with a Skunk#1, then crossed a keeper mom from that with the same Skunk#1 sperm, then backcrossed those kids. Very nice high indeed, melts all the chronic pains away and gives you a good night's rest.

So maybe the skunk ape could maybe smoke one bowl of my dankness? Maybe two?
