I'll go lift some weights with the Amazon. I don't have a stalking victim. She won't let me settle for anything but Great.

Hi Kid

I think everyone took their marbles and went home...
Or maybe their in the strawberry patch?

Yeah....

Isn't is a shame that some certain persons live so far away???

I have a strawberry farm...about a 1/2 mile from me. I have seen berry 1/2 the size of my fist...coming from it.....it is hydrophonic farm...no soil

all being grown from hanging pots

Yep,Hydroponics is the way to go.
You can double the Yield per square Yard!

I know this owner pretty well. He has about 1500
potted plants....strawberry...and another 500 pots for other
veggies. On about 2 acres of land. Sells only to
visitors that comes to pick them by hand, themselves.Several years ago.....he did......$40,000 in sales
Likely doing $50-60K now.

Compared to row crop and to tree agri.........where most of the time
if you make $3-5K per acre you are doing well......doing $20-$25 per acre is doing great.

In big agri business, each arce is a big cost with fuel prices. He operates this 2 acre with a small pick up and a mule. So? No
big and heavy equipment to run....no big fuel costs.

A FBI Agent just came out with the statement that none of the
GITMO detainess were given their Maranda rights. Which opens the
door if thier cases go to civilan courts......they could be kicked on
the technically....that thier rights were violated. Also they have already
ruled on one military tribunal case, that there will be a civilian
review of the proceeding. So likely all them will get a civilian
hearings.

Does not matter that they detained in a foreign land where US
jurisdiction is non existant.

That they are not US citizens.

That were either in a para military or military unit.
(Geneva Convention).

That there is not a soldier in the service is trained to give Maranda rights.

That just by merely associating with the CIA and the US Military in a foreign country.....where they were shooting at them.....they
should be offered the same Miranda Rights as in US .....is totally crazy.

It is not crazy at all TT but oak in your eyes of course it is crazy my friend! You are a supporter of GWB so it is all right.

There are differnet point of views here in this world and differnet individuals thinking differently about these views and at then....people will be able to think things through and voting of those politicians they find best for taking care of the jobs they Have to take care of.

Beside I heared in the news that in 2002, CIA agents were given the "right" to use tortur if they beleived that the tortur would not lead to psychologiacal dammages for those they should interrigate in the Bushneys kind of war against terror...these agents would have the immunity later on almost no matter what their methods would result in.

Really terrible to think of that "immunity" in deed and again one of the main reasons a lot powerholders of time in America should be trield in internatioal tribune of law and be questioned a out "What the Hell did you do, and How the hell Could you do that?"

In wars TT....there are rules and regulations as well! They shoot at you of course they do.....it is a war you know? People defending them selves no matter who the attacker is and no matter what the rest of us think about the ones we are attacking. Prisoners of War are prisoners of war and that silly Ramsfeldt "discovery" calling them "illegal combatents" does not justify tortur and they do have a right to have a lawyer and to know what exactly they are charged for.

It is time for well educated people with knowledge and care for international rules to take over in America one more time........



Oak! When you succed move to Mars......then make new rules! Until then.....America is a part of planet earth

Why the heck don't guy's like you run for office Tom. I would cast my vote your way. You are obviously well versed in military strategy, willing to do what is necessary to achieve success and wanting to avoid conflict if possible. Where are our choices here, so limited?

I'm concerned about McCain 'tho I respect his military background. Not only because of this instance (Indy he wasn't edited to make him look bad) but because of the series of incidences where he can't seem to keep the time lines, geography or names straight. How's that going to play in sensitive situations Tom. The president speaking as the leader of our country continually making gaffs? How many do-overs will he get especially in the middle east?

Critics Pile On As McCain Gaffes Pile Up
Politico: Verbal Blunders Bring New Attention To Sensitive Issue Of His AgeSenator John McCain (R-Ariz.) said “Iraq” when he apparently meant “Afghanistan” on Monday, adding to a string of mixed-up word choices that is giving ammunition to the opposition.

Just in the past three weeks, McCain has mixed up Iraq and Afghanistan, Somalia and Sudan, and even football’s Packers and Steelers.

Ironically, the errors have been concentrated in what should be his area of expertise - foreign affairs............

The McCain campaign says Obama has had plenty of flubs of his own, including a reference to "57 states" and a string of misstated place names during the primaries that Republicans gleefully sent around as YouTubes.

But the mistakes raise a serious, if uncomfortable question: Are the gaffes the result of his age? And what could that mean in the Oval Office?.................

.....an ABCNews.com posting asserting that McCain appeared to “confuse Iraq and Afghanistan, in a “Good Morning America” interview with ABC’s Diane Sawyer, who asked whether the "the situation in Afghanistan is precarious and urgent.”

McCain responded: “I'm afraid it's a very hard struggle, particularly given the situation on the Iraq/Pakistan border," McCain said. The ABC posting added: “Iraq and Pakistan do not share a border. Afghanistan and Pakistan do.”

Unfortunately for McCain, that wasn’t an isolated slip. Among the other lapses:

-“Somalia” for “Sudan” - As recounted in a reporter’s pool report from McCain’s Straight Talk Express bus on June 30, the senator said while discussing Darfur, a region of Sudan: "How can we bring pressure on the government of Somalia?"

Senior adviser Mark Salter corrected him: “Sudan.”

-“Germany” for “Russia” - A YouTube clip from last year memorializes McCain referring to Vladimir Putin of Russia - following a trip to Germany - as “President Putin of Germany.”

-This spring, McCain said troops in Iraq were “down to pre-surge levels” when in fact there were 20,000 more troops than when the surge policy began.

-Also this spring, McCain twice appeared to mistake Sunnis and Shiites, two branches of Islam that split violently.

-In Phoenix earlier this month, McCain referred to "Czechoslovakia,” which has been divided since Jan. 1, 1993, into the Czech Republic and Slovakia. He also referred to Czechoslovakia during a debate in November and a radio show in April.

-In perhaps the most curious incident, McCain said earlier this month that as a prisoner of war in Vietnam, he had tried to confuse his captors by giving the names of Pittsburgh Steelers starting players when asked to identify his squadron mates. McCain has told the story many times over the years - but had always referred correctly to the names he gave as members of the Green Bay Packers.

Does be-heading count? How about bombs being strapped to mentally retarded? Hmmmmm.

And forget not the children......

Yea Indy Obama looks and sounds better on camera, the camera does fall in love you know, it's well known. McCain is more of a "Everyman type" even the camera is not having a love affair a lot of people trust him and not just because of his military background. Obama may be able to give more inspirational speeches McCain comes across as more "real" in interviews without the teleprompters running.

Now consider this Indy, here I am surrounded by very "Hot", intelligent Republican men and I'm a lone liberal Dem. Can you imagine our pillow talk it if any of you would find a way through all these politics to date me?
