  • Whoa. That anvil really is in the key of Bb. I'll be damned.

  • @AresCassell My undergraduate degree is in music.

  • Deane the tender white ends of the seed spikes (if present) are nutty and also very good to eat raw as a snack while you fight your way to the heart. ;)

    Indeed texture will tell you where to stop eating--I have eaten the new un-emergent fronds as well fried in bacon drippings.

    mmmm one of my favorite forage items!

  • Thanks. I didn't know that. I have found that the roasted kernels ground have a coffee-esque flavor.

  • You should make a book!

  • I have the material. Need to find a publisher to say yes.

  • I think your videos are wonderful. Your just a natural infront of camera and an excellent teacher.

  • The guy updated his website he no longer suggest climbing the tree and cutting the top off, he now suggest using dynamite tied to a long stick to blow it off.

  • @EatTheWeeds Cool. I used to be a music major too. But now I'm trying to go for ecology. I do miss learning jazz guitar technique though. I'm so out of practice.

  • He he "protected weed" goes with "illegal weed" Sometimes the GOV really makes no sense!

  • You are! To me and everyone else that's a fan! :-)

  • I've never seen a palm plant or tree of any kind without wasps. Same thing for the cross pipe on clothes line poles. Are wasps edible???????

  • I guess it is not "Eat the Bugs" he he (speaking of the fly in the tea)
