I get soooo mad at those things that I don't think I could try to eat one, although I know they do in Mexico too. No thank you....you are free to help yourself to mine though :D

Now I have to replant a large swath of corn due to the armadillo and also replant some okra because of too much rain! :twisted:

I can see me trying to get my hubby to stay up with his gun...he'd laugh me out of the house, and tell me to watch for him!
Maybe you could borrow a live trap. If you didn't live such a fur piece, I'd bring ours over. They work great!...and then we could ship the bugger to k in France, cause she likes the soft insides, lol!

BWing, did you get that..>PELARGONIUM?< lol!!!
...naked bottoms...DH, has a friend that he sees at least 3-5 times a week. well, one day this week, he saw a lot of him! :shock:
Says, he opened friend's gate, drove thru, and then closed, and guess Jim didn't hear him.
Started pulling up to his garage...it was 4 in the afternoon, for pete's sake,
and he was nekkid as a jaybird!!!
both turned their heads, friend went in,
and nobody's mentioning it...cept to their wives, lol!
Says he thinks, they belong to a nudist colony.
Oh my...not on my list of things to do!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol:

there are no pictures that i can link, so i don't know if it's the same one. in google, i saw the purple HARDY GERANIUM (you can call it whatever you like), but that is not what we call geranium. poo! we call that HARDY GERANIUM. it comes back every year, whether you like it or not. if you don't divide it, it eats you up. it grows in the shade. that is it's only value. it looks like a weed with flowers.

what we call plain old GERANIUM is different. it's showier, comes in all shades of red and pink, not purple, and drops dead in the winter. at least in southern new jersey on up. probably further south as well. it needs full sun and is a showcase plant that needs care. lots of water or it gets naked on the bottom.

so you can keep your pelargonium and UNuncover YOUR naked bottom!!!

LOL C - will pass that on to his wife, she'll think it's funny.

BW - the hardy geranium is a geranium and the other one is a geranium too if you want to call it that!

PS But botanically it's a pelargonium!
