Time For Some Of My Lawn & Garden Photos
Edited on Sun May-07-06 02:56 PM by matcom
I'll take credit for the yard but every plant and flower are 100% Mrs Matcom's :D

Enjoy












HAD to get a scooter pic in with our cherry tree in the background :D

2. Mrs. Matcom and I have similar tastes...
at least in color. I like the pinks and purples. Very pretty.

Dude, you need to mow that lawn. :P

5. Hey, were your ears burning last night?
We had our DU Richmond meet up and we were talking about funny threads. Remember the post you made about how DU started; with Elad and EarlG?

We all got quite a chuckle out of that. At your expense, I might add.

:bounce:


Nice garden, BTW.

15. Actually, we jumped right into how much we all hate Bush.
That kept us going through the tapas and the second round of drinks.

It was so much fun. There are some absolutely awesome DUers in Richmond.

26. Oh, trust me, we raked you over the coals as well.
Essentially, we vilified anyone who ever posted in the lounge.

11. Here's the thread.
And we were dying about 10 things not to say at the Passion of the Christ and Oscar.

It was a very fun evening.

16. The bleeding heart is gorgeous!
Ours is nice this year, too. They're probably one of my favorite flowers. The bloom for about a month if frost doesn't get them. :)

Very nice yard and flowers, BTW.

The whole thing is lovely.

27. It's nice, but where's you shrine to Ayn Rand?
Edited on Mon May-08-06 08:28 AM by Rabrrrrrr
Oh, wait - you're a liberal - where's your shrine to Stalin and Marx and the Shrine to The Celebration of Americans Being Killed By Terrorists, you communist America-hating individualist socialist tax-and-spend pile of shit? Where's your Carnival In Celebration of Taking Jesus Out of The Classroom? Or your Mosque? I assume you must have a Mosque, if you're liberal. And of course your plaque to commemorate your pledge of allegiance to the destruction and elimination of religion.

29. Typical LIEbrul. Sarcastic as hell,
and you probably lied about having a shed. Or of having another side to your house.

I bet, since I'm a smart conservative republican type, that your house only has the one side.

LIEbrul. DEMONcrat.
