Weeds in the Garden
Have you ever raised a garden before? If you have, you know that it takes some work to keep the good things in and the not so good things out. Every once in a while, a little random weed pops out of the ground wanting to find its place in this world. Unfortunately, this little weed was born to get pulled by the gardener, whither into a wrinkled remnant of a plant, die, and decay.
This morning, in my garden, a few of these random weeds popped up and I thought I'd share them with you.
The little dandelion:
As most, if not all of us know, the global average temperature is climbing, the weather becoming more severe, the polar ice caps are melting; all in all, this world is becoming pretty HOT & STEAMY. ;-) But, did you know that this phenomena, commonly known as global warming, has a delinear relationship with the number of known pirates on the open seas? Yep... Sure does! In 1620, there were approximately 35,000 pirates sailing the seas and the average global temperature was about 14.2 degrees Celsius. In 1920, pirates numbered approximately 11,000 and the average temperature was around 14.9 degrees Celsius. In the year 2000, there were only about 17 pirates on the open seas while the average global temperature was 15.9 degrees Celsius!
Talk about a useless piece of random information!
The Tough Cockleburr
Our office assistant made the comment that I can do pretty good impersonations of various cartoon characters or other people. My response was that I grew up on a farm, so I've spent PLENTY of time being bored in a tractor. Enough said, right?
Well, my boss overheard part of the conversation and he made the comment, "Oh, I thought it was because you spent too much time in the barn with the sheep! That's alright, I like animals, too!" I just kind of stood there with a blank expression on my face with the though, "DIRTY PERVERT!" racing through my mind.
Ok.............. Now that I've watered these weeds and made them grow a little bigger, how is your morning garden??????
