JTD River Nutrients Registered: 03/08/99 Posts: 3007 Loc: Browns Point,Wa. USA	That is classic fortune cookie wisdom right there! That could also be a Haiku if you separated it into three lines. _________________________ In the legend of King Arthur, the Fisher King was a renowned angler whose errant ways caused him to be struck dumb in the presence of the sacred chalice. I am no great fisherman, and a steelhead is not the covenant of Christ, but with each of these fish I am rendered speechless.

ronnie Returning Adult Registered: 03/01/07 Posts: 308 Loc: Lacey	An old timer told me once about what seems to work. Pull all the mature fronds before they produce mature spores. The sori containing immature spores will be greenish. Mature ones will be a brownish color. When the rhizomes send up new shoots, break them off but leave a little of the epidermis attached. Do not break them completely off. The rhizomes will continue to send nutrients up but the fern will not grow. It will cause the rhizomes to "bleed" to death. _________________________ Gill nets take no prisoners.

Snake Pliskin Bead Registered: 02/13/03 Posts: 1202 Loc: Duvall	Possum thread? Ok....one of my ex-wives chased a possum out of the yard into the street and killed it with a broom. True story. After that, whenever we argued, I made sure there wasn't a broom in sight. Snake _________________________ Bless our troops.

Direct-Drive ExtenZe Field Tester Registered: 11/10/09 Posts: 7960 Loc: Vancouver, WA	Found this in the Book of Possum (2-pack special w/Braken Wars at Costco).... If the possum will eat braken, he should be spared the hatchet. _________________________ NO STEP ON SNEK
