    Pesky moss

    I second the fish however I haven't used them in winter. They have some little ones that look like moss and they suck the bottom and edges of the tubs. Those are great. Of all the water tubs I have used the best ones for not growing stuff are blue barrels cut in half. The white ones grow a lot...

    Carhartt "hands" commercials - what a joke

    They are probably going to be like Justin boots. A few years ago Justin started to do part of their stuff in foriegn countries and part of it in the us.

    You know you are from a small town when .......

    The state can't even spell your county right! 3 years a sign on a 4-lane said Green County--we live in Greene County I fixed that problem... The teachers know that you are going on a ffa trip before  you ever find out when it is.
