Cafe Hayek featured a quote by my man Chodorov earlier this week, and it's a god one: "The final argument for free trade as a measure of preparedness is that it tends to minimize the irritations which lead to war. A free-trade nation is a nation of buyers, and on the recognized principle that the buyer is always right,' such a nation is looked on with favor by its neighbors." * * * * * * * Screw Disney: Cedar Point named Best Amusement Park in the World. I really like Cedar Point. We wanted to get there again this year, but weren't able to put a trip together. Next year, for sure . . . maybe. * * * * * * * First that Facebook dude, now a frog: France's Richest Man Seeks Belgian Citizenship. * * * * * * * Anybody here use self-watering containers? I have a bunch of smallish ones (12 inches diameter, seven inches deep). I'm wondering what vegetables will work in them. I've read that self-watering containers can handle bigger vegetables than the same sized traditional containers, but that doesn't tell me how much bigger the vegetables can be.
