I meant no offense in my wise-crack about the Mason-Dixon Line and
the flower bed flower beds. Honestly, BIRDS AND BLOOMS brought this to my
attention, and I laughed out loud. I have never seen any flower bed
flower beds in the South, but lordy, we do have our share of tractor tire
flower beds.
And I mentioned this months ago, Frank Chowning corralled his
