My incontinent Brother-In-Law has one.

Or, two.

Okay....

Did I miss something?!

He has a tall tree in the yard and climbs to the highest point to leap off in a suicide attempt?

Why yes, as a matter of fact, I am a wiseass.

If you are able to do so, post pictures.

I may be able to assist as far as helping him not kill it/them.

I am currently sans bonsai, but I have tended them in the past. A friend of mine's dad had a couple hundred of the damn things in varying sizes and I helped to take care of them.

I had one for about a year, but it eventually died from some weird disease that covered it in white spots.

wolf · 08-13-2005, 10:59 AM

Probably aphids.

However, if it was white mist over the mountain (I can never remember the Japanese for it, but the translated name is so cool you don't really need it) rot, you gotta keep checking yourself, because that one is transmissible to humans and has an unusually long latency period.

Oops... I would regularly try to scrape the spots off with my bare hands.

Are human symptoms white spots like the tree symptoms, or should I be looking for something else?

It starts out kind of like a yeast infection, but then as the disease progress you have an insatiable craving for cartoon porn and raw squid.

Jesus christ. I now have to scrape a mouthful of Indian food off my monitor.

Bonsai trees are great. My grampa used to have a few and Istare into them for hours as a kid. I've tried to grow some in my time with no success. I'm most likely over-complicating the proces.
