The Cellar - What's more current than the weather?

Are you really sure you want to include zucchini in your plan for world domination? Edible Triffids, those things. You could feed, like, three or four Chinese Red Army platoons (several hordes per, you know) on your zucchini harvest.

There are stories in some regions about people who *never* lock their doors and their cars except in zucchini season. That's to keep people from leaving shopping bags full of zukes in their cars' passenger side seats.

I'll take 'em all! What I don't use, the chickens devour. More, better aigs for sale!

Glinda, do you net your blueberries?.

I have in the past, but it's more of a pain in the ass than it's worth. My bushes produce far more than I can eat/collect, so if the birds get some, I don't mind. They don't eat that much, and we're all in this together, after all. :)

I'd say net the berries, the birds can have the damn Zucchinis.

Believe it or not, if I don't collect the zucchini fairly regularly, the deer will eat them (well, they'll eat about half a zucchini, then move on to the next). THOSE bastiches, I'd prefer to starve.

Friggin' deer. :eyebrow:

I almost went to the What's Pissing You Off thread, but I didn't...

It looks like 85 degrees outside.

BBC story on Carbon Engineering, the Canuck company removing CO2 from the air

They got the cost down to $100 per ton of CO2

They got $68M in investments from fossil fuel companies

Put $30 of gasoline in the car. Only $4 moves the car. Rest is wasted as heat, noise, and pollution. Therein lies a solution. A scumbag Don even quashed that innovation.

Was 42 this morning 68 out there now. I have to get the bike out and go for a ride. We usually don't get much of a spring here, but this year it has been nice.
