Pear Leaf Blight, Fabrcea Maculata
Category: trees
Oh man, our pear trees which have like 1000+ pears are suffering from pear leaf blight

I think the wetness and windiness made it worse and we might lose the whole crop. It is probably too late to spray as the infection seems really severe.

I tried to trim back the highly affected areas and remove all the infected leaf bebris on the ground.

Mud Wrestling
Category: hiking
This looks like it could be fun. Just a random pic I found on flickr, sadly I was not there taking the pic.

Well I would think mud wrestling with some chicks would be fun, who knows maybe it would even be fun with like a bunch of couples

It seems like mud wrestling is really popular in Germany. Those those two look like Sean Cody stable boys.

The last thursday in the square
Category: thursday
Yesterday, I thought it was a good idea to whoop up for the last thursday in the square. I ended up hanging out with so many people. There was sameer, (e:Terry), (e:jim), and (e:heidi) at the square. Then we saw Casey down there. Afterward I saw (e:mike) and (e:libertad), (e:enknot), john and johnny and a whole bunch of random people I know from here or there.

I went but obviously missed you guys -- too bad. But the Avett Bros. were pretty good in any case.

The check continued

Sorry about the mix up, please send the check back and I will have it
corrected.



I saw this last night and responded:

Sorry, I hadn't seen the email earlier - I was very busy this week and just assumed you would have rectified the situation as it was clearly your firm's error.

Unfortunately, the check was shreded after I sent you the email. You can feel free to put a stop payment on it if you are worried.

I really don't want to wait much longer as we need the money to pay for the roof and I don't see why we should be penalized for your firm's error. I reattched a picture of the check from the day we received it so you can confirm the error.

Honestly, at this point I feel like you probably owe us interest on the funds.

Would it be easier to just wire the money? I will send you the routing number and acct number as soon as you respond.

Thanks for your time,
Paul Visco

The best tuna fish ever

I know I wrote about it before but it's worth a second shot. Tuna in
oil is far superior to tuna packed in water. The can is only like
$5.00 but it's just just as good as the more expensive glass bottle.

haha, no I'm pretty sure it's olive oil... I always get tuna in water, but I have to double check to make sure I don't get the oil ones by accident. I don't doubt that your stuff is better- I just wonder what makes the diff.
paul - 07/30/09 08:53
What kind of oil, cottonseed?
jenks - 07/30/09 01:06
you can get chicken of the sea and bumblebee tuna in oil for like 42 cents, though...
