Loverly. A nice compilation. Speaks volumes.

Agreed, except the following quote would be way more appropriate if it changed "woman" to "man"...

Thanks  When you say volume, a collection of books come to mind.  That is one of the most enjoyable forms of imagery I can imagine.  I enjoy that you groove on my wavelength.  By the way, yesterday I went out and ran into a Venus Fly Trap display at the store.  I bought it given the conversation we had, I'll post a picture of my little half-dead death-dealer soon-ish.  I don't actually have plants I manage--I just have like, pots, with half-alive flowers trying to grow.  I don't think I have quite the green thumb necessary to manage a garden; but in an effort to try, I bought a death-dealer

"Cotton Wool"

Here's my love
Step inside
Let me warm you up
By the fire in my heart

Step inside
Close the door
On the wind of fear
Brewing up behind you

You could stay here
Make your home here
Hide away here
I could wrap you up in cotton wool

Here's somewhere you could let your love run free
And give your soul a resting place
Finding someone is like finding yourself a home
If the key fits, just open the door

Cause you're never gonna spend a lonely day here
Come and watch your fear fly away
And you'll never hunger for a greener side than here
Gonna wrap you up in cotton wool and save you
And save you

Where's your love
Let me in
To find the warm fire
That I know is there inside you
Let me in, it's cold outside
And I'll grow there
Find that place deep down inside you

You could hold me
And protect me from all harm
You could love me
You could wrap me up

And I could stay there
Make my home there
Hide away there
You could wrap me up in cotton wool
(oool)

Awesome. Did your flytrap come with a humidity dome? Those can be useful in keeping them alive. Of course it wont catch many flies like that but you can always feed it yourself. 

I really love your quotes. You have a way of capturing the divine and translating them into a collage. Its like God is behind your actions guiding the way for you. Very amazing.

This is my yard.  As you can see, I don't believe in killing grass--getting rid of the dog made more sense.  Her dead grass circles have haunted me though.  Still trying to clean up that mess.

My plants.  I love my frogs.  Some people put out scary gargoyles and lions to ward off evil spirits.  Since I consider myself aligned with evil spirits, I put out frogs--to warn Mormon-types to keep away from my back door (I have some in the front too, I like to cover all entry-points).  I'm somewhat confused though.  "Nice" people put out scary demonic looking things at their doors to ward off evil spirits... the thinking process is their statues are like scarecrows, maybe?  If I were a demon, I would find demonic looking gargoyles inviting, like, "Hey, we are your people, come hang with us, these people appreciate dark art."  So using that logic, I put out frogs.  Yet, each time I look at my frogs I think of how lovely it looks and how it would not scare away religious visitors, but instead, invite them to knock on my door.  I think someone didn't think this idea through when they put gargoyles on the top of castles and churches.  Either way, I'll accept demons or angels so for me I just think it's rightly funny.  But what about the people who actually believe this ****?

The plants though, they're crippled.  I went on vacation for a month and my auto-sprinkler over-watered them. They are in the process of recovery.  I still am unsure what to do about them when winter comes (green house or build a habitat indoors).  My strawberry plants haven't put out yet--and I've had them for a few months now.  They still have a few months of summer to conceive.

This is Max.  When I bought him he was in an itty bitty tiny cylinder cage and half dead.  What you see here is Max's half-way house.  It was a container I wasn't using, with no drainage, and no humidity dome (that it likely should have).  Max is couch-surfing here until I can acquire a more appropriate habitat.  What that really means is I need to figure out what type of habitat I feel inclined to build.  So this is just a temporary situation.  Max is doing well, he's eating, has sufficient sunlight (had a deficiency), and has moist soil.  I worry though.  It seems Max does best with crappy soil, no fertilizer, and non-tap water.  What sort of demonic plant wants soil without nutrients, water without minerals, and no fertilizer?  All things that are good for most plants make Max weak.  Max is like my brother from another mother.

Well you certainly have room for a butterfly bush in there. I would plant it in the ground though.. They grow better that way. 

Lol, half way house. hehehe. Max looks cool. I see he had some flies recently and is a happy camper. Weird he doesnt want food and nourishment. He must have learned lessons from you and the warriors way. No needs.. He must be a tough guy.
 
If only you could grow a "Mars Jehovas WItness Trap".
