If more people would take the latter view, it would die off on its own accord. :-)<BR/><BR/>Something interesting <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kudzu" REL="nofollow">at Wikipedia</A>: "Kudzu root compounds can affect neurotransmitters (including serotonin, GABA, and glutamate) and it has shown value in treating migraine and cluster headache [8]." Maybe the solution to FM's migraine problem is as close as the nearest kudzu field…Larry Kollarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08317037795075278427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12954391.post-29745180168360729982007-08-29T20:30:00.000-04:002007-08-29T20:30:00.000-04:00kudzu ... hmmmmm ... another one of those Southern...kudzu ... hmmmmm ... another one of those Southern entities ...

One goat per acre will do for kudzu.<BR/><BR/>Solar, he said it needs a new computer module, and his buddies have one at their shop. Of course, there's probably plenty of other stuff w0rng with it (I wouldn't want to run the VIN, for example). But if it actually runs & gets him around for six months or so, I guess he'd be ahead of what he'd be into for car payments. That LeMans I had was a beater & it lasted about twice as long as I expected (3 years vs. 18 months).Larry Kollarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08317037795075278427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12954391.post-28570142534772054612007-08-28T15:27:00.000-04:002007-08-28T15:27:00.000-04:00Glad to hear he got a job, hope it l;asts more tha...Glad to hear he got a job, hope it l;asts more than month. ;)<BR/><BR/>A $500 VW GTI? What's it missing? A engine, transmission, tires? LOL!! Even new VW's aren't very reliable, so I sure hope he knows what he's getting into. <BR/><BR/>I've been wanting to try my hand at brewing some beer. I better seeing that I'm the only male left in this family that hasn't. :)<BR/><BR/>SolarAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12954391.post-70578427640210862932007-08-28T08:18:00.000-04:002007-08-28T08:18:00.000-04:00Morning FAR.I know what you mean about Kudzu.

My brothers that own the farm were out last month for a whole weekend and the only thing they were doing is cutting back Kudzu.<BR/><BR/>The beer seems to be taking shape and hope all goes well with The Boy.Family Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17101125448247590979noreply@blogger.com
