Re: California as the Pumpkin Capital


Big Big John,

I said that a million times that I have been robbed..............a logging
truck  push me off the road and a landslide burried my 9+...................and
all i gotten from folks at  the local -offs weigh is a cup of quarters .....to
call someone who really cares.  I am highly suspect of the wine makers growing
pumpkins I  think their cheaper than buying oak barrels...........and off course
we will have to pay extra for the hint of pumpkin pie
flavor.............Thankgiving Special $58.00
