Dr :ronpaul: says to stop trying to treat the side-effects of big government and focus on the core issues. End the Federal Reserve/audit the gold reserves at Fort Knox, abolish the IRS, end all wars and occupancies, stop the building of an empire that will inevitably fail, and cut all unconstitutional federal programs. Put the power back in the peoples' hands by ending this nanny-state.

ha, a few weeks ago i was out digging up some prickly pear at the beach, and later on that night discovered some nasty little spines in the wrong places.

I dont mind the large, dagger like spears most cacti have, but the minute, hair like things on prickly pear cactus are the worst. They get everywhere, and sometimes they break off at the surface of the skin and cause days of discomfort.

they are fairly small here, more like figs. 

ive used them in many things;  glaze for pork and chicken, prickly pear martini, prickly pear jam, smoothies, theyre fucking delicious :yesnod:   

If i ever obtain a large enough harvest, im going to try prickly pear wine

would need A LOT. once they are mashed for their juices, they loose most of their volume, so a good bit would be required.  it would be quite interesting and exotic though

And man I envy your tropical climate, i bet everything grows bigger over there . 
i can imagine my salvias would love it :yesnod:

When I was about 12 I was at a grocery store with some friends. I found a prickly pear and joked about how it wasn't prickly at all (I was unaware of all the tiny invisible spines). So anyways, I felt it necessary to point out how unprickly this fruit was, so I proceeded to rub it all over myself... That was a HORRIBLE night.
