The Sock Situation is Not Over

Remember the great sock debate? Rember the poll?. Well the four of us who thought it was important remember it. OFB was out voted and socks are here to stay. Well, The manic gardener had this too funny post today. This is exactly what happens when garden bloggers get in a tiff. Shame on all of us ;)

    I had no idea there was such a history here. But I much prefer Deb's "twenty feet with wet noodles" to my brace of pistols. I don't think James has weighed in yet, but he's probably on his way to my door--with a pot of spaghetti.

    Deb - I'm quaking in my boots here! Firstly I was with OFB (except Blogger wouldn't accept my vote) AND I've also posted today using the inflamatory term 'flowering their socks off'.

    I'm standing by with pistols, noodles, wet fish and whatever choice weapons I might need to repel allcomers!

    OK. So I'm totally lost, but my curiosity is going to get the better of me and demand that I search the socks off of this...

    Ha! Ha!!! Way to go VP (about trying to join my vote about the socks, not about the, gulp, fish)!!! Take that, scraggly sock-wearers everywhere! (Sadly, some of my best friends insist on wearing socks, but that is a different matter.) I stand by my anti-sock, pro-foot views and will defend them with wet socks, al dente fettucine, outraged parrots, or your weapon of choice, though I personally prefer the Monkeys' concept of trying to hit the compost pile (as opposed to one's opponent) with rotting produce. Perhaps a chalk bull's eye on the compost heap and a bag of overripe tomatoes at twenty paces?!

    Ben we have the right to wear socks. You do not have to exercise this right. Come on, get with us over here. The British are coming, seriously.

    Oh! Have we missed all the funny? Drats! We had a rough week and have been out of the blogosphere. I'm with OFB on the socks thing.

    Yes, curmudgeon it is over. We could only keep is up for a few days. Garden bloggers just don't have it in them to be consistently snarky.
