Re: Expensive Hobby
One of my non-garden hobbyist brothers has ridiculed this figure. When another brother asked what kind of gift card for them to get Mom for her 89th BD, I suggested one to some local nurseries. When my other brother heard this, he objected, saying that Mom and I already waste too much $$ on the garden, and bought her a nail salon gift card instead. Kind of has me fuming (especially as he plays both golf and tennis religiously).

"If by a liberal, they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind; someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions; someone who cares about the welfare of the people, their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, their civil liberties; someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicion that grips us; that is what they meant by a liberal, I am proud to be a liberal."
