Another hijack....this week at high school my sons Ecology teacher taught the class that lemon and lime trees grow well with human urine!  I advised him that if I catch him "watering" my potted lime tree I will put a cork in it!

Don't accept a citrus drink from this teacher.
Bet you were surprised to hear this when you asked your kid "what did you learn in school today"
Here the US is getting skinned alive and this is what our educator's are spending their time teaching the next generation. Some things never change.

   Retro clock to Nose grease and now Urine for trees, where will this go Next  :D, Thought I was doin good just learning about Antiques and vintage items, well looks like we even offer more  8).  Nose Grease is really great for scratched negitives and Urine for brushing your teeth.  True too but negatives are now vintage and using urine is for everyday use is Antique.  Really do love this site .

Ironlord, I laughed so hard I cried when I read your post!

My apologies to everyone for the hijack earlier.  Just got a bit carried away....I will try and restrain myself in the future!  Limeade anyone?

Before I let my husband "treat" my rangpour lime tree, I ran a few searches and found there is a book out called "Your Own Perfect Medicine." and it's all about "Urine Therapy". Drink up fellas!! Hey, maybe we can use Ironlord's new brandy warmer to get the full effect!!
