the green thumb

i might not have a green thumb but the hand is healing very nicely. must be the sunshine.

donald is all grown up so it should be pretty easy for anyone with a green thumb to identify the species. here's a hint; there's a popular chain of stores named after him.

the tomato plants are also doing well but it's still a crap shoot. it's been my experience that tomato plants can be finicky when it comes to sunshine and nutrients. this is my first planting at this location so i'm not sure how fertile the soil is and i'm not sure if the spot is sunny enough to appease the high spirited and famously temperamental pink german tomato and everyone knows what happens when germans get angry.

and yes, that's my favorite ivy vine in the background that i brought along from the old house. i don't know what the lovely mrs myshkin has more contempt for, the ivy or donald.

and now for the excitement. the clothesline is back in business and it's in use at this very moment. there is a slight breeze from the northeast so it's getting a wee bit of a test today. if the wind picks up i might run out and bring in the laundry. ruby is in the yard guarding her winnie the pooh blanket and will bark three times to signal me if the son of a bitch falls over.

i heard this song on the radio and thought it was good enough to pass along.

i love you sons of bitches.

A pink tomato sounds like an anaemic version of the red tomato. It's the red pigment that's supposed to contain all the beneficial anti-oxidants. Someone should tell the Germans their tomatoes are wishy-washy.

BBC said...

You call that puny little track of shit on the palm of your hand a wound? That wouldn't have stopped me from finishing an eight hour shift as a mechanic.

billy pilgrim said...

gb - the pink tomato might be a tribute to good old herman goering.

bill - that picture was taken after spending 5 days in a hyperbaric chamber. and i have banged up knee!

BBC said...

hyperbaric chamber, health care in Canada is really that good? Hell, maybe Harry should move to Canada.

Like your clothes line. Still need to get mine up.

We grow pear yellow tomatoes. Great to just eat and in lettuce salads.

Billy, mate, sorry to see and hear about the hand syphilis, mate. Get yourself to your GP, matey. At least after giving you the 'you filthy pervy' lecture, he'll get you an appointment at your local hospital. Hope it doesn't take too much of a hold and they contain/catch it before it reaches your brain, my friend. :-P

Hugs 'n kisses to Donald, my friend!

To You & Yours, I Wish You a Happy & Peaceful 'Starry' Night!

Take Care & Stay Lucky!

Peace,

Steve...

billy pilgrim said...

the pilgrim be happy!

i've just won a round in my battle with the cracker factory. it's going to be a 10 round fight but i'm pacing myself and prepared to go the whole 10 rounds.

billy pilgrim said...

steve - the hand is doing very well but my fucking knee is very sore. i might have to go pay for a rub and tug if things don't clear up.

thimscool said...

My advice: set charges and bring a detonator to the 10th round negotiations...

Farmer Giles said...

Billy, hope the 'Rumble In The Jungle' is a fair fight, and that the best man wins. They'll no doubt throw some low blows, but, Billy, if you counter with hard, honest, truthful body blows, then it'll be a breeze. Sorry to hear about the knee, matey, glad to hear that the hand's on the mend. Also, if I read what I believe to be true, i.e. that you've come off your push-bike, then your English family wish you a speedy recovery, mate. After all, I didn't get where _I_ am today by not getting back up _straight_ after a fall! :-P

To You & Yours, I Wish You a Happy & Peaceful 'Starry' Night!

Take Care & Stay Lucky!

Peace,

Steve...

BBC said...

Fuck the cracker factory.

billy pilgrim said...

i was thinking of bringing an ant farm full of bullet ants, then excusing myself to take a shit.

thimscool said...

Here, hold this briefcase... I've gotta go toss a cager.

Farmer Giles said...

Is this the Blogger Working Men's Club?

If not, please redirect me. Give me the air that I need to breathe! :-P

Take Care & Stay Lucky!

Peace,

Mr Humanity...

billy pilgrim said...

this is dog fuckers central.

work is foreign concept around here.

BBC said...

Guess who showed up at my place today? My daughter by my first wife, first time I've seen her in about 46 years. We had a very nice visit.

billy pilgrim said...

did you remind her that father's day is coming up and she owes you 46 gifts?

Damn autocorrect, turning my cabers into cagers. A cager is someone what won't ride outside their vehicle.

I gots my shekels on the pilgrim, syphilis or not.

thimscool said...

Yeah, he's clearly got the suboptimal LTR game figured... They aren't sure what he does but they're afraid they might need him.

BBC said...

Fucking rain....

BBC said...

Well, Harry, I'm just losing my interest in trying to make fucked up women happy so I can get screwed. Most of them wouldn't have made a pimple on Helen's ass and my cyberskin pocket pussy fucks me real good.

BBC said...

And if you want to kiss some tits you can always find a gal willing to let you kiss her tits while she plays with your dick for thirty bucks.

It's cheaper than helping to make payments on a BMW.

BBC said...

Harry, maybe the next time I'm over there maybe I'll shag your mother, she seems like a real sweet lady. LOL

harry said...

Well crusty, you can certainly try but unlike your mother, mine dosent fuck every Tom, Dick and Harry that comes down the pike.

Now try to act like you're somebody huh?

harry said...

Why didn't you say that to me this afternoon while we were talking face to face?

Certainly not because it just occurred to you.

You're pathetic.


BBC said...

LOL, I like your mother but I'm certainly not interested in shagging her.

billy pilgrim said...

i don't know if tony soprano would kill the king or buy him a cadillac for disrespecting livia.

BBC said...

Oh hell, it was just a wise ass remark that he took serious. For years he has gone on and on about shagging women, including the queen, but one is suddenly off limits because she is his mother?

Maybe I should go over this weekend with a new bottle of good humor pills for him, and shag his sister.

LOL

harry said...

You pathetic piece of shit.

Why didn't you say that to me while you were here yesterday? And now you extend your compliments to my sister. You're a real class act fella.

Are you looking for a public challenge?

Anyone that has read any of your bilge knows who goes on and on about their obsession with fucking and women's breasts like a twelve year old schoolboy.

This aint the first time you've pulled this weak play.
Fuck off, and stay fucked off.

billy pilgrim said...

well king, harry certainly has the high ground on this one. you should devote an entire post to apologizing to harry's mother and sister. that might be a good first step towards your redemption.

then give harry your boat to make things square.

BBC said...

You never know what is going to piss Harry off but he gets pissed at me about once a year. What should be insulting to any woman is that no man wants to shag her. :-)

billy pilgrim said...

you started this dust up so it's on you to set things straight.

BBC said...

I guess you are not getting my point. Hell, if I had gotten pissed at every man that wanted to shag my mother I would have spent most of my life being pissed.

His mother just might meet some man and take up with him, and it wouldn't be any of his damn business in she does, she is an adult.

billy pilgrim said...

au contraire fair king. apples and oranges.

harry loves his mother, you seem to hate your mother. maybe you should get some therapy to deal with your mother issues.

BBC said...

True, I had a love/hate relationship with my mother but she is dead now so it is all water under the bridge. But I damn sure didn't judge her for getting laid when she wanted to, it wasn't any of my business.

I won’t apologize but I can stay away from him, I have way more friends to visit than I have time for them anyway. Harry, don’t get your nuts too knotted up, you might lose your voice.

billy pilgrim said...

maybe you should go tell frump that you fucked his dead mother.

thimscool said...

Speaking of mothers, Leslie how are you?

billy pilgrim said...

the king claims to have fucked her dead mother. being a spirit, he might have fucked her unborn child too.

BBC said...

I might have fucked your mother also. But never mind, you just don't get thinking at a higher cosmic level.

And if your mother had been a chain smoking drunk that started drinking when she got up in the morning you would have had issues with her also.

I'll go play somewhere else now.

billy pilgrim said...

i'm 58 and you're 70, right?

could you have fathered me when you were 12?

dad!!!

BBC said...

We are not talking about the physical me, but our higher cosmic forces. But being as you monkeys have it all figured out you can carry on without me.

billy pilgrim said...

i haven't got it figured out and probably never will figure it out.

ignorance is bliss and bliss is the end game in my book.

Leslie said...

I have the biggest crush on Harry right now.

BBC said...

Well then, she should grab him while he is still breathing, but he may not be all he seems to be.

BBC said...

Hell, Harry would shag Leslie, especially if she would talk dirty to him, he would shag anyone other than his mother and sisters. Just saying.

BBC said...

If Leslie would like to shag Harry I might be willing to give her his phone number. :-)

billy pilgrim said...

where's the baby photos?

BBC said...

Yeah, where are the pictures of the new baby monkey?

thimscool said...

Name? Time? First words? And yes, of course, pictures of the little monkey...

harry said...

First words? Ha!

Precocious little genius!

Not a surprise.

Congratulations.

billy pilgrim said...

harry and leslie
sitting in a tree.....

thimscool said...

I meant Leslie's first words upon having survived the sweet little parasite and meeting her face to face...

billy pilgrim said...

so you're telling us leslie had a daughter. you know so much more than us.
