    Is the bulbo in the floor for sale? Seriously would you be willing to sell or trade for individuals such as the Schomburgkia brysiana which is the only one I don't have.

    Neyra, I dont want to break it up just yet.

    Jean, I have seen each of these species bloom on this size and smaller divisions. Perhaps you have some cultural issues that is prohibiting you from blooming this genus until they are larger?

    Tom, The humboldtii is on the right. I have not bloomed that one yet.

    It might not be up to Forrest's standards, but I'm quite happy with it. Really love the cork, too.

    I see you haven't been drinking wine, I don't know what it actually is, but non-cork corks are common now. Did you read it?

    It's Chard. Of course it's no good.

    I think next time I'll go with a different color. That one made my tongue kind of fuzzy. Not just this morning, I mean when I was sucking it down last night. Maybe too dry?

    I did like the cork though.

    I'm sure you are well aware what Fuzzy Tongue looks like, Dale. Anyone who has a bedroom wallpapered in Boxed Wine carcasses HAS to know Fuzzy Tongue, up close and personal.

    My tongue isn't actually fuzzy, you understand. I've checked. Multiple times.

    I can't believe how egregiously you've hijacked poor Forrest's topic. BTW, *looks at watch* aren't you gonna be late for your trombone lesson?

    Trombone lesson? Where have you been?
    I've moved on to the tuba.

    I can't believe you are still awake, isn't it like WAY past your nap time?
