REB, AR, REF, OT-Humor: A Reblooming Arilbred Iris


The iris list seems to go through ups and downs, overall a genial affair with
lots of interesting people.  Right now there seems to be a need for some
humor, and I see Kathy G. is making a valiant effort to bring some smiles.
 Hurray for Kathy!

Now, I will probably get some people angry with me for putting this "teaser"
on the list, but I think some people might like to know that the next issue
(Spring) of the Reblooming Iris Recorder is going to have an interesting
interview with our own Sharon McAllister.  I can only give the start of the
article.....but there is still time to join the Reblooming Iris Society so
you won't miss this article.  The article begins....

"A Reblooming Arilbred Iris

"The following interview with Sharon McAllister, owner of McAllisters Iris
Gardens in Fairacres, New Mexico, was prompted by information she provided to
Lloyd Zurbrigg and Clarence Mahan on the Internet.  
"Interviewer: Sharon, can you tell us which arilbred iris cultivar has
rebloomed in your garden several times?

"Sharon:  The iris is [ name deleted due to lack of space](Tom Craig 1950).  

"Interviewer:  Will you tell us something about this iris, its background and
its reblooming tendency? [Sharon then answers this question, and several
more....very exciting information....]"

To keep people from having to use their time calling me names for doing this,
I will call myself names:  Secretive! Mean! Bad Mannered! Outrageous!
Hard-hearted! Manipulative! Stupid! Uncooperative! Etc.Etc.   Whew! It sure
is a good feeling getting all of this out of my system.  Of course, calling
oneself names is easy to do  when you've been cloned. And it is a lot less
risky than calling other people names. :) Clarence Mahan in VA 

PS, Tom, I sure hope I did the name tags right!  Oh, oh, I guess I should
have put "Admin" in the subject too!  Too late now. [Hurray for Tom! What
patience!]
