The bid to make gardening illegal

Hi, all! I posted this link in the Urban Gardeners discussion, but thought I'd post here too. I was wondering if anyone heard of this, if it's actually going through, if is malarkey, or just what everyone thinks in general. This link is...http://justmyopinion.yuku.com/topic/2488/t/Growing-a-Garden-Soon-you-ll-be-going-to-jail-for-it.html. What do you think??

Monsanto-the bid to make gardening illegal

Hey there! I've been coming across this S510 bill over and over, and was wondering what the other gardeners here, as well as livestock keepers, think of the whole thing. Here's a link...http://justmyopinion.yuku.com/topic/2488/t/Growing-a-Garden-Soon-you-ll-be-going-to-jail-for-it.html, which pretty much covers the frightening part of this lengthy and muddy proposition. I've read…See More

"Yay, it's open! Looks like it's been pretty busy, too. I drive by every day on my way to work, and they are indeed advertising a 50% off weekend. I'll be there!!!! Curiousity has been getting the best of me for weeks....."

"First, a ban on smoking indoors. Then, people want to ban it outdoors, where they forced smokers to go in the first place. (Has anyone noticed how many non-smokers hang out outside with their smoking friends, because that's where everyone is?)…"

Profile Information

Where I Live:: Conveniently located near Historic Route 66!

About Me:: I'm a burlesque performer here in Albuquerque, with about two years of performing experience under my shimmy belt. It's an incredibly packed two years, with loads of local shows and national performing gigs crammed in there. I'm also the founder, director, and producer of Gilded Cage Burlesk & Varieté here in town, which is the city's most diverse burlesque company, combining the art of the tease with exceptional belly dancers, sideshow artists, singers, bands, freaks, and more for the wildest ride around!
I'm also an all-purpose artist, I live to sew when I have thescant time to do so, and I love to cook just about anything. I hoard vintage clothing and furniture, buy vintage couches at the drop of a hat, and am totally addicted to local folk art. I'm also a complete glitter whore. Really. I cannot refuse anything that sparkles and shines. It's a little freaky.

Favorite Thing(s) About Albuquerque:: Eeeee. There are too many things to list!I love the green chile, naturally, but I also love the weather, the unique environment of our city, and the endless skies. Growing up in Massachusetts, the trees were so tall they blocked out so much of the sky. I adore the art here, and many of the people, like Johnny Salas who owns the best folk art store in town, Santisima. LOVE!!!!

My Website:: http://www.vivianmirann.com, www.gildedcageburlesque.com

What I'm Reading:: "What am I not reading" is the shorter list. My all-time favorite re-read is "Caramba!" by the illustrious Nina Marie Martinez. Also known as the Rockabilly Girl Bible. Or Handbook. Whatever...just go read it!!!
When I'm not rereading that for the umpteenth time, I love mysteries set in the Southwest and in the Northwest, as well as vintage handbooks, guides, and whatnot.
