Pinus thunbergii |
My favorite was Pinus thunbergii,
a specimen from the Pacific Rim Bonsai Collection in Washington state, which
certainly exudes magnificent mojo. I
have already rewarded myself with a prize, as it is now hanging from our office
wall.

P.S. One knucklehead named Hyper left a blog comment:
"I think they all suck man,
and besides........"
Well, besides what? Like really bad?

to your crayon therapy, and whatever you do, don't stray from your medications.
