Richard's Poor Almanack By Richard Thompson Jerry Blossom Fun Facts The Tidal Base and cherry trees will be at peak Blossom this week. Here are some things you should know before you consider approaching them. Won't you try some bark? Cherry tree bark, if chewed for six hours, becomes a gummy, revolting wad that's of no earthly use whatsoever. In ancient cultures, the bark would be offered to victims as a mean prank, thus inventing April Fools. It takes 300,000 blossoms to make 1 gallon of blossahol, and eco-friendly fuel. The exhaust and produces when used in internal combustion engine is an embarrassing shade of pink. Ha! What sissy exhaust! The roots of a cherry tree may extend for thousands of feet in all directions, often protruding from the ground to trip unwary tourists miles away. This is a cherry tree's only defense. And- These trees have no cherries, so you can't make a pie! What? Try the bark instead. Ok! 6 hours later- Ew!

Speaking of sissy exhaustâŠmy dad drove my â59 Austin Healy Sprite one day. I had decorated it with big flower stickers. It was the 60âs, for.Peteâs sake. He passed a guy in one of those big truck rigs & the driver took out a handkerchief & waved it out the window saying, âYoo Hooâ!!! He never drove my car again!

Yes we know how âsissyâ plants are. Macho men perspire testosterone and only eat red meat, closer to raw the better!

Having marched in the D.C. Cherry Blossom Festival Parade, I feel a certain camaraderie with the cherry trees. And Sour Cherry Nectar is one of my favorite drinksâŠ.
