   After the heavy rain we got yesterday, today is too nice to be indoors (i’m taking a breather with a cup of African Honeybush tea from transplanting a Norfolk Island Pine and a Jasmine plant into new (to them), larger pots with some fresh potting soil. i need to move my oversized fern into the garage when it gets colder.

   i’m not sure who to believe – the National Weather Service who predicts a mild winter with near no snowfall around here, to the Famer’s Almanac that says this one will be average in precipitation (rain and snow) and average in temperature (meaning seasonably cold weather). Now, we’re not even out of October and it’s been mostly warm (definitely above “avg.” and WET too), but you know how quickly the weather can turn.

   Alright, break’s over.

   Do you think Obama should invade Burma for Regime change? (you said it was an open thread)

       No, I don’t think we should do that either. It’s really tribal like Iraq so it would be hard to manage that country. Didn’t Biden want to divide Iraq up into 3 pieces? That still doesn’t seem like such a bad idea to me.

       I’m hoping it will be like the Soviets where the 1st generation was really unmovable, but then the next one kind of gives up on it all.

   i watched ABC’s “this week” sunday and was very surprised when the medical marijuana topic came up. the round table discussion consists of two conservatives, two moderates and two liberals. can you believe the panel unanimously agreed
   that legalization (not just medical) would be a good thing.
   we’ve come along way, baby.
   a very short time ago the subject would not get the time of day, now, it’s getting to be front page news and it’s about time.

   I am currently on day 5 of a lemon cleanse….also known as a master cleanse. I am in need of a little encouragement to keep going! Anyone have any success with the lemon cleanse?

   I don’t know if I can make it thru the whole term.

   Thanks in advance and I will let you know how my lemon cleanse progresses!

     Have you ever done a Mentos cleanse? I am currently in the 159th day of a Mentos cleanse. I am in need of a little encouragement. I don’t think I can take being minty for much longer.
