Wow, who could have known that a seemingly simple removal of a Licuala spinosa would turn into this never-ending drama! :P

LOL. Did you just call me a "short literary composition on a particular theme or subject, usually in prose and generally analytic, speculative, or interpretative."?  ???

This reminds me of some guy on another form saying "No way Hose-a" one time.  :P

I tend to blame Dean for this mess. After all, it was HIS garden. I say we form an angry mob and go burn his garden down. WHO'S IN!!!??

Len,

Keep in mind, Dean probably anticipated that something like this might happen, since he has TWO gardens - one in CA and one in HI! :D
