For Reasons Unknown
So I should be doing work right now. But I really am not in the mood. I had a kind of crappy week at work so far and I had a bad run tonight. Instead of running errands (for work) I'm not watching PBS with the most amazingly interesting and wacky show about growing giant pumpkins. That's right. Pumpkins.
These people are CRAZY about pumpkins and trying to grown them super huge (like over 600kg!!!) This one guy made a "pumpkin hammock" which was two fold in strategy. He could not only make sure that the bottom was round (not flat from all the weight) but he could also track in real-time the grown rate. Now that is genius. If I was a pumpkin grower I would want to track the change in weight in real-time (read my obsession with the Ipod Sport kit...) These guys (they haven't shown any women yet...) literally sleep by their pumpkins at night. It's like Charlie Brown and the great pumpkin!!!! Then even put blankets on them to tuck them in.
This is such a great show - so amusing. These people talk about these pumpkins like their children. This guy even carved a super big pumpkin WITH A CHAIN SAW!!! I think I want to grow giant pumpkins. The amounts of money that they spend on these pumpkins are amazing.
They store the seeds in their own personal "seed vaults" like that place in Norway or Sweeden or whatever... but they label them individually and pick out the most promising seeds - like a 40 year old virgin at a debutant ball.
Now they are talking about Pumpkin Sex!!! This is the best program on PBS EVER! This guy discribed his first experience with a giant pumpkin as "it kind of jerks you" ummm I guess the pumpkins aren't the only ones having pumpkin sex.
I always just thought pumpkin seeds were for eating... not pumpkin sex!
Now this guy is really sad about some pumpkins that didn't make it. Poor pumpkins... Some lady says that she cries if a pumpkin goes down. When she found out that the mice were eating it - she set up 150 mousetraps around the pumpkins. This guy admitted to spending 4 hours a day in th pumpkin patch. Don't these people have jobs? I guess not.
What I've learned from this program: Pumpkins have sex, people love to obsess about stuff (not just me) - usually weird things, some of these guys "love" their pumpkins longer/better/deeper than their wives, these people all have too much time/money.
