I am shattered!!

What a week this is turning out to be.  First I lose my self-ordained
title of Grand Poobah to Bill (having only held the title for two
hours.) And now this news about my daylilies. I am utterly shattered!
   After sharing the story of my beautiful and unusual(?) triple
daylilies, which I dearly love (even though they are the major source
of the dreaded orange in my garden) I get the bad news.  I expected to
learn that after weeks of long, exhaustive search into the world's
rare flower archives, and innumerous consultations with the most
reknowned horticulturalists (on an international scale), that my rare
daylilies are only found on a high plateau in the distant reaches of
the sectet garden of the Dali Lama of ancient Tibet. Or barring that,
how about the garden of the Emperor of China who built the Great Wall
(probably to protect his daylilies).  
  Instead of the above what do I hear?  My lovely flowers are one step
above weeds, somewhere on a par with dandelions, and are growing
profusely in every ditch and on every hillside in North America?  In
fact Marie has so many of these rare beauties that she is giving them
away to anyone who will take them off her hands! I ask you,,is this an
ego-buster or what.  
   It seems the only unusual thing I have in my garden here in Ohio is
my stalk of corn and I don't even have that anymore.  I yanked it out
yesterday in a fit of pique.  I'm going to shut my mouth for the rest
of the summer in a giant pout.  
  By the way, those of you who wrote and said that your shasta daisies
were turning black and shriveled, I thought that you'de like to know I
sent a curse out over the internet on all shasta daisies, the world
over.
