Didn't we go very near that hill(ish) on our Alquatka Trip? (edit: no, after looking closer, we did not get down that far.) https://forums.njpinebarrens.com/threads/alquatka-branch-a-pbx-hike.4453/

Very interesting. But what's a bird point?

Nice catch Tom. A glorified planter? Something in the Greek style maybe.

That's really interesting Al. It must of given you quite a thrill when you found the first one that was definite the moment you laid eyes on it. Did you think back to the possible creator of it?

You have a good point. But my stepdad stood on the porch steps with his hand on his hips while I was working on my motorcycle, and fresh out of high school and said: "Go get a job". There was no money or encouragement for college. And his life skills were lacking. I had to learn the hard way...

Was the rootstock bad to begin with? :D

I remember when I bought the album led Zeppelin 2. If I recall correctly, it was 1970. I hitchhiked to Moorestown Mall from Presidential Lakes to get it. I remember somebody left me off at the 4-mile circle, and I walked home from there, clutching it in my arms. It made quite an impact on me...

I think a 13th year of high school should be added. Forget all the reading, writing, and arithmetic. Some of the subjects should be (I created this list): --No, don't click that button. --No, don't answer that number. --This is how you make out a check. --This is how you greet other humans...

I always throw them in the junk spam pile. Some guy named Stan made it to the list of people who like bland home stuff like textiles, closet organizers, swimsuits, and linen, and his email was likely close to mine, so through some error I am now on the list. No matter what I do or how many times...

I always wish I had a computer that was expendable and could not get me in trouble if I clicked on the bait button (Update Now). I'm always dying to see what they are trying to do to me.

:D Well, the trucks are here, that's for sure. But really, if they'd just say exactly what set of maps they mean in their literature, and if I agree with them, I might feel more inclined to donate again (however meager the amount may be).

They ought to say so, if so. And, that is not official yet?

Yesterday, I received a newsletter and request for contributions from the Pinelands Preservation Alliance. Within the newsletter there is some written material about ORV's. They make this position statement: "Our position is not to eliminate driving in the Pines but protect sensitive habitats...

It's ground water. When it rains, any water not caught in the duff percolates through sand. Do you realize what an excellent filter sand is? It's why they use it for swimming pools. Groundwater moves towards streams below the surface. If the water underground is unconfined, you can have a...

It is a grievous offense to do that to a Cedar tree. In my mind, a spring is eternal. It comes from the aquifer. But you can call that a spring, if you like. I call those occurrences seeps, although even that definition is debatable when matched with your location. But, that's what I call...

I got quite a bit of rain last night after painting parts of my deck. I didn't see that in the forecast.

I've never attracted or even seen a tick in my yard. Strange.

Hank, you seem agitated that you can't get your point across to those who disagree with your stance that viruses are living organisms. I'm not interested in alternate theories. I'm firmly in the camp that viruses are NOT living organisms. They cannot reproduce independently, they don't have a...

This looks like a trick question. You probably know of some organism that lives but violates the rules of life given in Biology 101. Why don't you just say what it is? Where is your argument that a virus is more than just nucleic acids wearing a protein coat? Actually, the article you cite...

I don't like it just walking in my neighborhood now when people are out. They are jogging with no facemask, maybe leaving a cloud of particles behind them. Sort of a slipstream right towards me...
