Not sure if serious

Serious. Why is it an apple orchard instead of an apple farm?

Okay but why does it need a different name at all? Does the plat type really matter if we called it an apple farm would we survive

No because you don't farm apples

Its okay tbh I’ve lost interest in the random thought I had while driving by an apple orchard anyway

Yeah but you said you orchard apples. you don’t. You farm apples at an orchard. As opposed to corn which you farm at a farm. Seems more straight forward to just call it an apple farm. I’ll let the committee know in the next meeting

What do you do to them

by aualum06 2022-08-14, 22:35

Travis of the Cosmos wrote:What do you do to them

I think the main difference implied is that you only plant them once where as on a farm you plant every year/growing season

by **Travis of the Cosmos** 2022-08-14, 22:43

Oh that’s a good point okay I can get behind that

You are harvesting the tree not the fruit. So the tree is done after harvest

That suggests it should be an apple grove

Grove is a smaller orchard but orchard and grove are basically interchangeable I'd say

When the sun comes up on a sleepy little town
Down around San Antone
And the folks are risin' for another day
'Round about their homes

People of the town are arrange
And they’re proud of where they came

Kind of feels like you're just making up the rules as you go along. First it's "orchard means trees", then there are qualifications for what you're harvesting. What's next, it depends on the color of the fruit?

Got Joe Kocur's phone number forwarded to me from a coworker today...no email address. He's a manufacturers rep for a structural steel company. Have a project for him to have them quote. We don't have enough information for them to quote it yet.

Is it weird for me to feel nervous if/when I do call him? Sorta feel like I should look up his entire NHL history and look at youtubes of his fights first.

Be cool man. You know he'll throw hands at the drop of a hat.

The only thing worse that coffee beans ground for too short a time are coffee beans ground for too long a time. It’s like trying to pour hot water through flour.
