Thanks Jro. It hasn't been easy.
I want to say that hiring work out isn't a cop out... Sometimes its a matter of using my time differently, and having a professional do what they do best. Being why I had that pump replaced professionally last year. I grow better cannabis than any plumber I know. I wouldn't have even attempted the job if everything wasn't brand new. The bolts were easy to turn, parts easily acquired. Thanks for the kind words.
The octagon is @ 5 weeks and has 5 more... I didn't get pics this week... It looks like a 2-3lb crop. Nothing spectacular... But there's a crop 2 weeks behind it... And another 2 weeks behind that... Next week I'm taking cuts for what's most likely the last run in the octagon. I'm gonna do it right and grow straw dd so I can hit the numbers I was claiming when I started this thread.
BLASPHEMY!!!!! DAMN YOU!!!![/QUOTE]
You're just jealous...
Clone-only.
You know the dark master isn't going to like this bobble....... there will be consequences
I have some new tributes to the dark lord next week... I need his blessing... As I've signed a patient for another legal 12 plants so I can start steering this ship in another direction.... Running several hundred clones wears on my anxiety, if ya know what I mean... And ya do.

Have you ever graduated from business school and decided you didn't really want to manage a JC Penny's or sell mortgages (no offense to any mortgage bankers out there..
) That's what happened to me.So what if I'm on the verge of bumping 11k in flower... If I don't really want it anymore.
I mean lets be real, I'm enjoying this while I'm doing it... but it's never been my lifestyle choice. Just cause you can doesn't mean you should. Anyway... I've learned enough now to keep my patients at arms length so they can't fuck me. Generally speaking, the metro-Detroit area is mostly MMJ friendly. It's time to start playing by the quasi-legal rules. That's what got me out of an interview with the DEA with my freedom. The appearance of being state-legal.
Okay I'm moving this thread to the *cough* horizontal *cough* side of ICM...LOL OJ.
Looking proper bobble, nice looking harvest too. Wishing ya the best man.

Jury convicts ex-Detroit mayor of corruption
Jury convicts ex-Detroit mayor of corruption
Detroit sounds like a bowl of cherries!
============================================
DETROIT (AP) — Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was convicted Monday of corruption charges, ensuring a return to prison for a man once among the nation's youngest big-city leaders.
Jurors convicted Kilpatrick of a raft of crimes, including a racketeering conspiracy charge that carries a maximum punishment of 20 years behind bars. He was portrayed during a five-month trial as an unscrupulous politician who took bribes, rigged contracts and lived far beyond his means while in office until fall 2008.
Kilpatrick wore a surprised, puzzled look at times as U.S. District Judge Nancy Edmunds read the jury's verdict: guilty of 24 charges, not guilty on three and no consensus on three more. Kilpatrick declined to speak to reporters as he left the courthouse.
Prosecutors said Kilpatrick ran a "private profit machine" out of Detroit's City Hall. The government presented evidence to show he got a share of the spoils after ensuring that Bobby Ferguson's excavating company was awarded millions in work from the water department.
Business owners said they were forced to hire Ferguson as a subcontractor or risk losing city contracts. Separately, fundraiser Emma Bell said she gave Kilpatrick more than $200,000 as his personal cut of political donations, pulling cash from her bra during private meetings. A high-ranking aide, Derrick Miller, told jurors that he often was the middle man, passing bribes from others.
Internal Revenue Service agents said Kilpatrick spent $840,000 beyond his mayoral salary.
Ferguson, Kilpatrick's pal, was also convicted of a racketeering conspiracy charge. The jury could not reach a verdict on the same charge for Kilpatrick's father, Bernard Kilpatrick, but convicted him of submitting a false tax return.
Kwame Kilpatrick, who now lives near Dallas, declined to testify. He has long denied any wrongdoing, and defense attorney James Thomas told jurors that his client often was showered with cash gifts from city workers and political supporters during holidays and birthdays.
The government said Kilpatrick abused the Civic Fund, a nonprofit fund he created to help distressed Detroit residents. There was evidence that it was used for yoga lessons, camps for his kids, golf clubs and travel.
Kilpatrick, 42, was elected in 2001 at age 31. He resigned in 2008 and pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice in a different scandal involving sexually explicit text messages and an extramarital affair with his chief of staff.
The Democrat spent 14 months in prison for violating probation in that case after a judge said he failed to report assets that could be put toward his $1 million restitution to Detroit.
Voters booted his mother, Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, from Congress in 2010, partly because of a negative perception of her due to her son's troubles.

Sad, sad truth about the people of Detroit -- Kilpatrick was elected to a second term, despite having a substantial amount of scandal surrounding himself and his administration..
From Wikipedia, the quick'n dirty about what was going on when he was re-elected:
In May 2005, the Detroit Free Press reported that over the first 33 months of his term, Kilpatrick had charged over $210,000 on his city-issued credit card for travel, meals, and entertainment.
..honestly, just go to the wikipedia page and read the whole damned thing. It's honestly too much to cut-and-paste here..
It's sad - really, really sad. In addition to running up a major debt while he was mayor, abusing the office for his personal gain, the guy was the reason for a $8.4 million settlement between the City and two disgraced ..
Jeez. I honestly can't ..
head asplode. Just read it, y'all.

I am surprised he wasn't promoted to higher office, or maybe someone used him as a stepping stone. I cannot say i trust my government or say i am proud to be an American anymore. I haven't voted in the past 3 presidential elections after bush I seen what the plan was and it makes me sick.
