« on: Today at 04:05:27 pm »There used to be a flower plantation near our house. That was a nice feature in a neighborhood. You could go over there and pay $5 a head and they'd give you a mason jar and a pair of pruning shears. They went bust during the pandemic. It's sad. They'll probably put condos or a data center there now.They ain't going green. Not like we think, the 420 data center is all folks need. Right around the corner, it'll be tougher to take a shiit in peace than putting on your meta glasses and saying proof junior, fix me a hamburger ... Nice flowers, good place to smoke weed...

If I had more ambition and some more equipment, I'd plant a field of flowers. The thing is, per square foot, flowers are way way more valuable than vegetables.
This place is down the road too.

The guy that owns this operation lives on the property - I'd be growing weed. He probably does. He looks like he does.

The farm was foreclosed. She took the six kids and a Radio Flyer wagon and started west for California. The twins in the wagon were 11 months old. The boys walking were 6, 5, 4, and 3. Her dress was torn on barbed wire. Her leg was cut and infected. She wrapped it with a feed sack. She had $1.60 in her pocket. A photographer from the Resettlement Administration saw them and pulled over. He offered her a ride. She said no. She said if she took a ride now, the kids would expect one every time they were tired. She gave him her name and kept walking. The photo ran in newspapers across the country. Donations came to a PO box in Barstow. She got $200 and a bus ticket. She made it to Bakersfield and picked grapes. All six kids lived. Three went to college. Martha died in 1978. The wagon is in the Smithsonian.I don’t understand the concept of so many kids.

$200 in 1936 is like $90,000 now.

Back in the 70's -80's there was a straight looking fellow who ran a medium size greenhouse up the road, turned out he grew weed. Darn good weed as I found out when his son got old enough for jr high.

« on: Today at 09:05:25 am »Sunday already. Generally speaking, summer goes by a lot faster than winter. There is an exact number of hours left in all of our lives where the weather is nice and we are awake. That is the most valuable (non-renewable) commodity we have. The guy that does my taxes told me that. He's an accountant, Irish, drinks a lot. Great accountant. I never met anyone that was that enthusiastic about accounting. He actually tells accounting stories and they're hilarious. He's not very healthy though...he's been smoking and drinking as long as I've known him...and I've known him a long time. Anyhow, he said he's going to focus on the enjoyment of his remaining days as a way of maximizing his return on that valuable asset. That's pretty sound advice. His brother's a lawyer. More fun to drink with than to go to court with....and I've done both...as a client and a co-defendant. He said that living below your means greatly decreases the likelihood that you will ever become homeless.
That's all you need to know about life. the rest is commentary. Taken together, those two pearls of wisdom are a prescription for a stable life from the two most unstable people I have ever met. I'm going to prune some trees today. That seems kind of zen-like, feng shui and so forth. Smoke some reefer, drink some coffee, trim some trees.
