2 CommentsBy Ed Silverman // November 19th, 2010 // 7:54 am
Good morning, everyone. And welcome to another busy day, although already we are daydreaming about the weekend. And why not? For our part, we envision getting exercise in the form of raking still more leaves; frolicking with the short people and catching up on sundry chores. What about you? Time for a movie or a good book? Tossing a football? Maybe stopping to appreciate a special someone? Whatever you fancy, have a great time. Meanwhile, here are some tidbits. See you soon…

Either the “Pharm” is going to have another ‘bumper crop’ today - or you are really determined to get the harvest out first thing and off to the weekend early, Ed?
Either way, you will deserve the time off.

Ed enjoy your leaf raking. When I was a kid my dad let me burn the leaaves after we had finished raking them. With leaf blowing now outlawed everywhere, there are whole generations of people that have missed the intoxicating aroma of a burning pile of leaves on a cool crisp Fall afternoon.
