Funny Illustration "For Better or Nursery"
Enlarge this main illustration by clicking on it, then enlarge again with Shift+ a couple of times.
I almost fell off my chair laughing at these quips from Plant Delights...
Marriage Licences .... and at the other end of the table: Dioecious
Lots more if you can enlarge it enough to read.

They have a future in comedy if the nursery thing goes south.
Remember that page they had with directions to there place?
That was funny!
They have been in a little trouble lately though.
Some people would rather bitch than laugh-go with your strengths....

I love plant delights there catalog covers are pretty funny. As a gay man the Westboro Baptist Church people crack me up Fred Phelps with the sign "God Hates figs" "Self-polination is an abomination" and "Un-natural Unions are not the Anther" and the one guy flashing them and the flaming sunflower with the mustache and the red purse. And is that John Roberts marrying the gay plant couples? "Dont Ask Dont tell" closed haha. Yeah Barb the weeds are killing each other lol. Weed killer. I think this cover is pretty amazing he deff. has a future in comedy if the nursery business ever fails.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Thanks for that February link, Jim.
I don't recall that any cover--ever--satirized (is that a word?) Penn State.
But it's unfortunate it raised such a furor...but wasn't it published BEFORE the trial/conviction?
Must've been tough for Tony as he had just lost his wife.
Satire is satire.
I don't have to know the story details to find it humorous.
For all I know (living up here in the great white north), topics could be about fictitious people.
I appreciate it as simply another form of humor on a topic.
Yup, I do remember Tony Avent's directions in how to get to the nursery...one of the funniest things I've ever read in my life.
Showed an incredibly creative imagination.
Will try to find it again...if I remember, it was a long set of directions, fall-down laughing landmarks.
I wish he'd come visit the North Okanagan and do a satirical piece on our local government.
He'd have material until he retires.

Wow, found it faster than a burp...
Starts with a "shady deals nursery" bio (and what else they do, ha ha).
"Nursery, Emu Ranch, Nail Salon, Video Poker, and Auto Body Repair. "
And visiting instructions: Call first (click) to find out why, and there's a pic of a lion roaring.
A lot of plant Latin names/descriptions are often hilarious, just scroll through 'em.
The directions to the nursery are near the end.
This one just kills me....

I love it!
Going to read it again today just to laugh my socks off.
