How to Celebrate 4/20 if You’re a LOLcat












High School Students Send Rubber Chicken to Edge of Space


During last month’s solar storm, Bishop Union High School students from Bishop, CA sent a sensor-equipped rubber chicken into the stratosphere to study solar radiation. They hope to gain insight to the effect of solar radiation on life and promote conversations about space weather. The rubber chicken in question is “Camilla”, the official mascot of NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (@Camilla_SDO on Twitter).

I don't have cats. I don't mind them either. Cats are OK things.
I have always wondered why so many of them always are wandering around the yard in summer.
Always wondered what that nice 'comes back every year' pretty foundation planting was.

Now I know.

Guess I'll just let it be.

Yup, that's it! Looks just like the pictures.
It's a mint. It was here when I got here.
So now I have chocolate mint, oregano and catnip.
Cool!
Darn, if Basil were only a perennial.
