Greetings, my fellow port swillers!
It is a curious thing, but at least as far as Ol’ Robbo can see, “Earth Day” seems to have disappeared this year. Usually, all the seed catalogs that have got hold of my email address would be filling my in-box with apropos “sales”. Usually, my FacePlant feed would be full of “celebrations”. Usually, the likes of Greta Thunderscold would be clogging up the MSM homepage I have to endure in logging on to my dashboard here, loudly proclaiming that the world is coming to an end and it’s All My Fault for having the audacity to exist.
But this year? Crickets.
Long time friends of the decanter will know that Ol’ Robbo despises the so-called “environmental movement” and all its works simply because it has absolutely nothing to do with responsible stewardship (which goes back to Genesis) and everything to do with the destruction of the middle class. The watermelons (green on the outside, red on the inside) support it as a tool to bring about their communist utopia. (The “founder” of Earth Day was such an one. That he murdered his girlfriend and composted her chopped-up body in a closet tends to get overlooked.) The WEF-globalist types support it as part of their drive for neo-feudalism. Thusly all the junk science and increasingly draconian politickal diktats. You will live in your “fifteen-minute” cities, and you will drive your ridiculous e-cars, and you will stake your survival of the winters on wind and solar power, and you will eat zee bugs, and you will like it. Now pahdon me while I jet off to Davos. (Think Ol’ Robbo is sporting too much tinfoil on his head? I only hope so.)
Anyhoo, as I say, I’m not seeing the usual exploitation. It’s quiet. Too quiet.
** Those who understand will understand. Don’t go changin’. (Ol’ Robbo would be willing to argue that “The Blues Brothers” has done more for the benefit of Mankind than all the “environmental activists” ever spawned.)

May I suggest getting two little rosemarys? Bring one inside and leave the other on the porch come Winter.
Mine survived outside this past Winter, and you are in a more temperate zone.
And if they both survive, one of them can always be used as a hostess gift.

Well, the movie certainly helped Plymouth with its over-capacity issues.
