....or the shit they spray everything with during the growth cycle?

HFCS feeds cancer, which has anaerobic metabolism, eating up blood-sugar, but it is not a carcinogen. This was a cheap-shot for me to include...

;-(

We already knew that sugar made cancer grow faster in the mid 1980s, when I was an intern.

Based on your garden photo, your winter must be mild.

I feel I am being played by the drone stories. I prefer to think of them as UFOs. This is just another opportunity for the govt. to lie to us. They are probably worried that the atomic-bomb-in-Japan-cat is getting out of the bag, so it's time to invent another threat.

I suspect there are several kinds of things in the sky, and I'm just finding what I can about it; scrounging...

We are in central Texas, with Austin being climate zone 8a and Yoakum being closer to the coast, climate zone 9a.

It ha not yet frozen this fall/winter.

What disaffects me in the UK is Elon Musk trying to buy UK politics with a $100m bung to Nigel Farage.

Farage was this roaring lion for a decade, taking on the whole EU establishment. Now he is suddenly gobbling Elon Musk's balls for money. He has become a pathetic supine poodle, turning the UK potentially into a US colony.

That is quite simply an act of treason. We didn't vote to leave the EU to become a US colony. If Farage and his mates love the US so much, toddle off and live there. We don't want permanent ties to a Zionazi serfdom that takes orders from Jews and Jews alone.

We want to be a free mid-sized nation, off the edge of Europe, 3000 miles away from the USA.

Awesome December garden, boss. Our fall garden is great this year. The old lady done good. Root veg tops ain't looking so hot but the roots are premium. The flavor of the carrots exploded last week. Rutabagas as creamy as can be. Bok Choi out in the elements are hanging tough through the frosts; love that darkest of greens (the color) that they turn out. Salad greens happy under the plastic. Thanks for another roundup.
