@wtg said: Once they find a bunch of plants and get going, they will keep after that patch and potentially eat everything to the ground. I was checking today and it didn't seem like there was any new damage/eaten bits. @wtg said: You really are down to a choice between an ugly fence or no flowers. Most likely. And if so, it will be no flowers because there's no way I'd put up a physical barrier here.

I hate whataboutism. Why not just admit that the current administration is doing some really bad stuff without trying to blunt it with "well the other guys did it first"? It is so sad that we have given up expecting that our politicians and government could do better than the previous lot.

That’s pretty high if it’s generic. I usually pay like $13.

I live at 9000 ft for a reason.

I noticed there is also a trend of renaming things after our current president. I think this now may become “in depends” day…

This story made me tear up when I read it yesterday. I don’t mind dogs shooting people, but I really miss the gas prices listed in that picture…

Just finished listening to this: [image: 1779881614216-img_2591.jpeg] I really enjoyed it. Hearing about how he grew up poor in the projects and made it to Harvard than HLS and then how he stumbled into Goldman through the back door was interesting. And his inside take on the great financial crisis was interesting and brought back a lot of my own memories.

This is another one that I saw a few days ago. https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/scammers-offering-help-with-pumping-gas-charge-victims-cards-after-theyre-gone/4372049/ Anyone walking over and offering to help me with pumping the gas would raise red flags for me immediately, so I don’t think I’d fall for it. But it amazes me that these crooks are so ingenious.

Happy Birthday!

I think you'll find that bias pretty common here.

We plant the Nonstop begonias in our deck corner planters every year. Bright color all summer long and no maintenance
