Legally Rambling (10/24/2009). Ok, so you got me – right from the start tonight - this post has absolutely nothing to do with the law. Yes, that’s right – break night - and I deserve one! Further, this post has nothing to do with the Green Movement. I’m not going to discuss the removal of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Old News! I’m also not talking about biodegradable toilet paper either. Been done! Now, I will save trick toilet paper for another night! So what am I rambling about tonight? Ok, buddy lets get down to business.
I am talking about the perception of which is evoked by light having a spectrum dominated by energy with a wavelength of roughly 520–570 nanometres. Ok, so if you still don’t know what I am talking about - in the subtractive color system, it is not a primary color, but is created out of a mixture of yellow and blue. Moreover, in nature the largest contributor to it is chlorophyll, the chemical by which plants photosynthesize.
Now Erma Bombeck once noted that you should “never go to a doctor whose office plants have died.” I agree – what’s up with people who can’t keep a plant green! I mean tonight I was watching the UT – Missouri game and just after UT scores I look to my right and sitting on my brother’s table is a dead house plant! Come on, it’s not like you have to house break it, take it for a walk, or to the vet! It’s just a plant! Sunlight, water and love! And, frankly if you can’t keep it green and care for it you should not have one. Period. You know some people are dog people, some people are cat people, hell some people are even fish people, but if you are not a plant person or are not responsible enough to care for one you should not have one! Face it - plastic flowers were made for people like you.
And why do people just leave the plants where they die – it’s not going to come back from the dead! No more green! It reminds me of another great problem – carved pumpkins on the porch weeks after Halloween.
Some People … Ramble On!
