Default Citrus! Citrus! Wherefore Art Thou?
If the prices on ya'lls citrus goes up drastically, here's why.

Compliments of Charley and Frances.

California and Texas...get ready to supply the nation with oranges and grapefruit.

Florida's citrus crop is for all practical purposes a write-off.

LOL!

Yeah. Bobbing for LOTS of oranges!

In our grocery stores here in NW Florida our oranges are stamped with purple ink "TEXAS".

Our grapefruit are stamped with green ink "CALIFORNIA".

What the hell, over.

Frisco...Ron...go to the grocery store and see if the oranges and grapefruit are stamped "FLORIDA".

Will do, Steve . All you CA wine drinkers keep an eye out for a possible price increase. They finally got a handle on a 4-day wildfire up in the wine country near Geyserville, Mendocino County. I guess it took out several vineyards. John and Sid, I don't think this will affect the screw-top brands .

That photo looks like a discolored version of a Massachusetts cranberry harvest!

I forwarded that photo to Ted Kennedy and told him it wasn?t water, those grapefruit were floating in gin and tonic.
He has a 1 PM flight to Orlando.
I?m allergic to citrus so it doesn?t bother me at all.

Hey Bob the woman with the back that looked like that picture, was that your first, second or third wife? Just wondering.

Stay healthy,
Andy

Default Going to stock up
On my favorite, "Night Train Express" Makes MD 20/20 taste like champaign.

Bob, I ordered extra oysters for the night of the 23rd. Have you ever tried an Oyster Tequila Hot Shot?

Maybe we can ship a bunch of the downed oranges up here to my hunting lease, WOULD MAKE GOOD BAIT.
