Well things are progressing nicely. We have the warehouse all ready and the volunteers laid out...so to speak. We couldn't let everybody lay around stark nekkid so I was able to get a donation of bib overalls from "Big Cracker Bubba's Bibs" of Albany, Georgia. These are especially well suited to the ass-grown veggie business since they are made especially for the folks in south Georgia and North Florida. You see down there ALL the locals wear them because they have NO SEAT in them and that's the only way they can keep the gnats off their faces.

Cletus sent the Reg boys after Ol' Man Scaffidi's asparagus crowns the other night and they procured over 500 while he was at late mass. In lieu of other financial arrangements, the Reg boys left him a nice brochure about Toronto and one of their half-brother Rick's CD's. I doubt if Scaffidi misses them for awhile as its dandelion season and he's real busy right now, being Italian and all. He has at least 12 acres sown with dandelions now after he spent two months in the hospital a few years back when he was struck down by a Kenworth while picking greens on I-70.

If things are going well, Cletus and the Reg boys should be starting the planting right now. Paw is still wanting the position of "Lead Grower" so I suppose he'll be pretty well "occupied" for awhile, which should also help to keep Cletus out of trouble.
