Scene: Me and Him, in our office at our respective computers. Me: (Reading Emails) Ohhhh! I may be getting some Monticello cuttings from a fig forum member! <big smiles> Him: Hmmp. Whatcha gonna do with all these fig plants?! Me: Grow them! These are from Thomas Jefferson ffs. Him: Hmmmp. Where are you gonna plant them? Me: In the yard! A fig takes about 5yrs to reach peak maturity for taste. I'll grow them, and the ones that turn out crappy get pulled up and I plant something else in it's place. D'uh. Him: Well, if you keep planting them, there won't be any garden left! Me: Just that much less grass for you to cut! <batting eyelashes> Silence.

Clever girl !! I always found the "less grass for you to cut" theorem very effective ! Oh and the eyelash batting never hurts !! __________________ 7a & 9b ►I assume all my figs carry FMV ◄ Seeking : Italian 376,395 , Galicia Negra, Negretta,UNK Pastilliere ,Pananas Purple, Malta Blk+purple/red, Italian + Calabrian UNK's , Catanzaro, Malone, Sucrette(Baud) "We may have our private opinions but why should they be a bar to the meeting of hearts?" - Gandhi
