    That’s a lot of tumbleweeds. In February of 2014, Vancouver, Washington had a heavy snowfall that lasted about a week. I know that because I lived through it.

    Uh Ripleys, do a little fact check. Clovis is in New Mexico, not Mexico. There are 50 states not 49.

    Candle Bush (Senna Alata) is called ‘Piss a Bed’ here in Belize, and for good reason. The tea is a diuretic.

    you all know, of course, that tumbleweed is russian thistle, and, as such, is a not so subtle plot against the US by russia, and obama is just ignoring it to the detriment of our sovereign being.

    How can you play tennis well and think it’s far more boring than cricket?

    I had no idea that tumbleweeds existed as far south as New Mexico; I had associated them with Kansas only.Tennis can be suspenseful whenever two professional guys hit the ball back and forth fourteen times between someone scores. It’s the shape of the shuttlecock that makes its flight path unpredictable, far more than any ball’s path; that’s why scoring in badminton, even at the Olympics, is fast.
