... in response to Wrong!, posted by MtMav on Nov 30, 2002The tomatos are going stronger than ever...(Wal-Mart buys them $1.50 they've said they'll buy all they can get)
Now I'm venturing into Lettuce - Romaine, Butterhead & Loose leaf, I've check with every grocery and resturant in my area and they said they'll be glad to buy locally & Fresh...Last year in California they had a bummer crop and prices skyrocketed. Might happen this year, if not that's ok.. This is an easy crop which matures much faster typically 30 days and about 75 days with tomatos - all grown hydroponically.
This is a cash cow, turn on timers and fill up the nutrient tanks for a weeks worth of watering... Go play sailor on the weekdays and come home on the weekends for havesting.
Tell me what Russian girl wouldn't like to be sitting in a greenhouse fiddling with tomatos or lettuce in 70 degree heat while watching the snowflakes fall in the middle of winter?

Bush Jr. Rejected the Fed employees 18% hike, but they'll still get a 3.1% hike in January...(per CNN).
Ya know I didn't botter writing my congressman for that 55yr retirement, because the way our gov't is spending money on the War on Terrorism.. fat chance on them really creating a decent entitlement for reservist. But if you read the Navy Times, they'll be posting in the next future issues my recommendation on a tax-free id card, navy times called me up and requested my permission for a release on that info so they can publish..
