Give Pedro a break. He meant to say they have a 30'X30' LOT.
In there, he has a 144 square foot garden.
Farmer extraordinaire. Indeed. Yup.

My bedroom is bigger than that.....uh, so are the others.

It'd be more praiseworthy if the evil twin had a garden on his own real-estate, rather than one of these "community gardens."  He's got plenty of real-estate there.

But of course a garden on his land would destroy the look of the well-manicured green acres of lawn around his house, and the evil twin doesn't want that.  I'll bet if he ever put up a clothes-line, he'd be sure to put it up off his well-manicured green acres of lawnery.

How selfish.  Shouldn't he be using that land to raise food for the poor?

Ideally, yes.  The primitives allege themselves to be morally superior, more caring, more considerate, than we run-of-the-mill people, and they should have to prove it, through self-sacrifice, giving up their riches so that those who have less can have more.

But that's never going to happen; the evil twin's about as likely to give up his least little toy for the sake of someone poorer than he, as pigs are going to fly. 

But notice, please, about this "community garden"--not all of it's dedicated to growing food.  Some of it, and I'll bet most of it, is actually given over to serve the recreational needs of the affluent--these hiking trails, biking trails, croquet lawn courts, tennis courts, whatnot--that don't contribute a damned thing to feeding the poor of the world.

This is Connecticut.

I'll bet nearly everything the evil twin buys at a "farmers'" market in Connecticut is grown somewhere down south, and falsely-advertised among the rich primitives of New England as "locally grown."

I'll bet the whole state of Connecticut doesn't produce but half a bushel of corn, and an eighth of a pound of hamburger.  I'll bet they don't even have dairy cattle there for nature's perfect food, milk and milk products.

21. Thank you! Excellent point!

We'll have plenty to go around. It's a "community" garden...good way to share the bounty.

I'm not so sure now.  Much to my horror, apparently one can buy meat at a "farmers'" market, or at least the one the evil twin patronizes.

They try the "community garden" thing around here all the time, and invariably end up with a field of weeds.

Does ANYONE really care what Boehner says anymore?


 I just watched Orange Man commenting about Snowden. The only thought entering my mind was "Who the **** cares what you think, you impotent douche bag?" Seriously. Why does any sane person still care about John Boehner's opinion?

that show he cares enough about Boehner to make a thread about him.

If you want fried green tomatoes you pick them green. If you want ripe tomatoes you let them get red on the vine. Pedro's picture of half-ripe tomatoes was stupid, like Pedro.

I guess up there in the pristine wilds of Connecticut, within smelling distance of Manhattan, you have to pick tomatoes quickly. Like before they're stolen by someone else in the steaming, squirming hordes of surrounding democrats.

Pedro's agrarian fantasy reminds me a lot of when poor addled DUmmy grasswipe Judy Smith entertained us with stories of living on a "farmette".

To paraphrase Shoeless Joe Jackson in "Field Of Dreams", "Is this hell?" "No, it's Connecticut."

Here to, half a dozen do all the work and the "community", who has never been seen near the garden, picks all the vegetables at night.

I was wandering around Connecticut a couple years ago when much to my surprise I ran across numerous houses with free range chickens in the front yard.  I was just a tad taken aback, but then, knowing liberals, I figured it was their most recent agrarian reform fad. Those pictured below are a favorite because they eat ticks and other pests. (Lyme disease is called Lyme Disease for a reason BTW, because ground zero is / was Lyme, Connecticut.  Why that actually is can get into real :tinfoil: territory <cough> Plumb Island <cough> Nazi scientists <cough>)



The Nutmeg State certainly does have its share of NUTS.

And I must add my personal prejudice that having grown up around chickens they are among my least favorite creatures, not something I would want running around my front yard.

Surely you jest, sir.

In even the most backward, remote, rustic areas of Nebraska, chickens in the yard are considered declasse, poor taste, slovenly, something that someone with the least shred of self-respect doesn't have.

Very true. Even in my youth, living at the fringes of the Sandhills, chickens knew their place, and remained in the backyard.
Yankee chickens are just full of themselves, strutting around in the front.
They must vote DUmbocrat.  (and probably do) :whatever:

Eat your heart out, Skul, sir.  You really have to come home again.




This is what I prefer seeing in the backyard (not my set, a random image from a croquet site, but I have something like this):


<<<bets has better croquet set than the evil twin does.

White shirt (or blouse) is obligatory when croqueting with franksolich.

I was thinking about bringing that over too--as God knows, we need some more inventory in the DUmpster--but then I got hung up on the evil twin's ".....we drove all over tarnation....." and lost the contents of my stomach.

I finally looked it up, because I thought the evil twin was mocking us rural folk, talking like that.

Quote
tar·na·tion  (tär-nshn) New England & Southern U.S.
n.
 The act of damning or the condition of being damned.

interj.
 Used to express anger or annoyance.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[tarn(al) + (damn)ation.]

Regional Note: The noun and interjection tarnation illustrate suffixation, the addition of a suffix to a word. Tarnation and darnation (the latter probably having come first) are both euphemistic forms of damnation. Tarnation seems to have been influenced by tarnal, another mild oath derived from (e)ternal! The Oxford English Dictionary cites late-18th-century examples of tarnation from New England, indicating that it has been part of American speech since colonial days.

Well, maybe he wasn't making fun of us, but it sure seemed like he was.
