Miscellaneous Rambling
My business venture with son, Jack, is getting close to lift off. If you have a Facebook account, head over and "Like" MAXimum Gardening. You can check out the online store while you're there too. We have a lot of work to do on it, and I don't plan on soliciting "Likes" on a grand scale for another month or so, but the basic framework is up for a working online operation. The goal is to get it fully functional by January 1st, "work it" for a few months, then start selling produce online come April.
Interesting times: Amazon Says It's "Almost Ready" To Get 1,000s Of Grocery Store Cashiers Fired. I'm thinking there might be an opportunity for local growers here. I'm also thinking I might be delusional.
Learned while preparing for my Theology on Tap lecture, Reformation II: Poland was almost lost to the Calvinists in the 16th century, but the Jesuits stormed it and stopped the transformation in its tracks. Man, whatta loss that woulda been. Poland is the West's shining star of hope. If it had lost its Catholicism, it'd probably be a Muslim wasteland right about now.
