This really sucks. Buy an extra large wine cellar now and stock up. https://www.motherjones.com/food/2019/10/climate-change-is-coming-for-americas-favorite-wine-grape/

Hard for me to get too sour about grapes. Now if hops were to go away we'd have a problem.

Ya, its 17 degrees at my house right now. I say the more climate change the better! moon.gif Anyone ever wonder where Greenland got its name? Because it USED to be green!

From what I've read about the Vikings (including in the Viking Museum in Oslo,Norway), the name "Greenland" was a good example of 10th century advertising!

Yah.

What's especially fun about sock puppets is that you can make each one unique and individual, so that they each have special characters. And they don't have to be human––animals and aliens are great possibilities

From British guitarist Peter Green. It's a fact. He played there once long ago.

You sure it wasn't for the Green Manalishi Peter encountered while there? Oh well...
