Seed starting, take two.

Because I built-- FROM SCRATCH --two lamps just for seed starting, I feel I can do anything. Including not killing every seedling I start. This time around it's just flowers. I'm having another go with the zinnias and gazinias plus celosia red velvet. I also started a few more marigolds, just in case the directly sown seeds aren't as densely packed as I like.

What we'll be waiting to hear is whether the would-be Commander in Chief absorbs enough to admit he was wrong about the troop surge in Iraq.-- The Wall Street Journal Obama's 'Judgment' Editorial The Wall Street ...

Things could be getting interesting along both coasts

Changes in the tropical landscape tonight: KIKO: Tropical Storm Kiko is on the fast track to become a hurricane, likely sooner than later, and quite easily as early as overnight. Looks about as good as any already, and, well, frankly almost looks to be on that "West GOM Rapid Intensification Plan" (TM), at this time. Several models have been forecasting this, and tonight Kiko is in the ...

Word: Lurv Coffee: Irish Mocha with Skim and Whipped Cream Poster: BY Lira , Eric Olivares , 2007 Question: Will I be moving back to the city to attend graduate classes part time next semester/quarter? Feeling: 'Duck' (I am wet in the rain and splashing in puddles while giggling suspiciously quack-like)

Nothing else about the place Everything was ugly but your beautiful face And it left me no illusion I'm really fond of my childhood. It was different. I didn't grow up in a house like most people I know - I was raised in a small apartment complex: it had 16 units, and one laundry machine in the basement (I think there was a dryer, too - but we never used it, we'd just hang our laundry all ...
