Edited on Sun Jul-31-05 11:19 AM by Tallison
long enough it is. Heroin poppy harvesters unfortunately wind up with high tolerances for the stuff and have to manage withdraw symptoms of their days off, according to the mammoth book "Opium: A History." (Former opiate addict and RN here; you can ask me anything on this subject, and I'd unfortunately probably know :crazy: )

33. Why, yes, that's right. Interestingly the site labeled the pic "Lupines"
I guess the photographer thought it was Lupines. Pretty similar look.

What a pretty plant...

34. It's a gorgeous plant, with such strong architectural lines.
It grows well on the south side of redwood trees, where few plants can survive.

51. Dude - note the "silly" smilie after my post.....
I'm afraid you are taking things just a bit too seriously. Besides, why would I seriously call you a "LIEbral?"

I am getting the impression that you are following me in order to start trouble and I'm not going to bite. This is really getting utterly ridiculous and I am politely asking you to stop.

41. Well, the sun is shining on my front porch and the Times is waiting.
Have a good day, everyone. There are lots of interesting things to talk about here, but it's a beautiful day out there. Get out and enjoy it and think about the larger things in life- love, friends, nature, and kitties.
