Neem will probably work, but it's not an instant cure. It works by disrupting the reproduction of the bugs, so it takes a bug generation or two to really see the effect. I spray all plants with neem oil diluted into water, about once every two weeks, whether it looks like they need it or not.

18/6 doesn't really save you any money, because the plants grow slower, so you have to run the lights more days to get the same level of growth that 24/0 would have given you in fewer days. There are really only two reasons to use 18/6 in veg: 1) you want your plants to grow slower (because you...

I prefer my cooltubes to have an internal reflector, because they are more light-efficient that way. Why? Because glass disperses light. With a reflector external to the tube, light that initially goes upward (the top of the bulb) has to go through the glass, hit the reflector, then go through...

I used to take R&R in Jamaica in the mid 80's, via Blackhawk helicopter flights from Grenada. Nice place, fun people. See if you can take a boat ride over to Grenada. Interesting place too, and it's very close to Jamaica (and waaaay cheaper). I buried 8,000 pounds of copper in southern Grenada...

If you like gold, buy some. Nothing's stopping anyone from loading up on gold. Then you don't have to worry about whether the dollar is or isn't backed by gold, because you'll have the ACTUAL GOLD. But I'd buy silver instead; seems like there's more upside with silver in this market. I kinda...

Yeah, but if you'd invested that money in $1000 worth of pot, you'd now be out *and* you'd also be down $2000 worth of munchies. Like Monty Python said, "Always look on the bright side of life..."

Forget about oil. If we drill up every drop of oil left on or under American soil, or our seas, that's less than five years' worth of supplies. We need to get off oil completely, and as quickly as possible. If it costs us a fuckload, well, so be it. Because if we don't do it, we're going to be...

Or else John McCain's Blackberry invention would be worthless.

They have another shindig next week too (I shit you not). So I guess they needed a few billion more to get em thru the next week. Those billions go pretty fast these days. You know how it is!

Man, are we outsourcing our politicians to India now too?

His Manchurian Candidate North Vietnamese communist brainwashing is wearing off, making him erratic and, well, insane. They had him for several years. You don't think they messed with his mind, bad?

He wasn't exonerated. He was reprimanded for bad judgment by his peers, and as best as could be determined, he was required to return the various bribes he received, monetary and otherwise. That was a slap on the wrist. He took bribes! He shoulda been tossed out on his ass for blatantly taking...

Plant a garden and grow some of your own food! It's waaay easier than many people think. I started one a couple of years ago, and I just expand it a bit each year, so I don't have too much work to do at any one time (I'm a lazy mofo). I'd say my garden is providing about two grand worth of...

Of course they'd want McCain elected. He'd continue to drain our resources into Iraq when they're needed much more at home. That drains our national vitality over time, making us weaker. Bush has been doing their bidding for five years, and McCain seems intent on continuing along the same path...

Not to mention...the one who's going to win. Heh.

Quantity is what wins democratic elections. You don't look at two piles of votes and go, well, that pile there looks fresher. You *count* them. Counting means 'quantity'. If some ACORN people did bad shit, then the law will deal with them. The goal -- registering the poor to vote -- seems like...

They gave *me* a secret security clearance, and later a top secret, so I could work on encrypted satellite communications between aircraft carriers near the Mediterranean and Belgium and Turkey. If I could get a high-level security clearance, with my record as a pot-smoking juvenile delinquent...

That whole line is a lie. For one, we don't use $700 billion worth of oil per year, from all sources combined. Secondly, more than a third of the oil we do use comes from Canada, Mexico, and Britain. We also produce some of our own. Not sure where they got their misinformation. Maybe it's from...

Man, with the way the economy is, I think it's Joe Forty-Ouncer now. A six-pack is a freakin' luxury these days.

If the goal of the terrorists was to goad us into attacking the wrong country and thereby destroy our economy by draining that money into Iraq instead of America, well, the terrorists have already won. What'd they spend on 9/11? A million bucks? Probably not even that much. How much have we...
