Topic: I need your dirt

I realize how weird this sounds...

I need dirt.

Ok, I don't need dirt, my sister does. For a science project... And she needs it now.

If you live in the US, and want to send about 4 to 8 ounces of dirt to me, please drop me a mail at [email protected].
I need to know by tomorrow...

Am I to take it you are attempting to provoke a trans-Atlantic mud-hurling contest?

*lobs sizable shlop of mud over the ocean...*

Erm Monty, you do realise that it wasn't mud that you just lobbed across the ocean, don't you?

Granted, there are huge strides made in tecnology every day. Why, just last week, I picked up a piece of plastic, and could hear voices coming from it. Voices of people who weren't even in the room. Wow.

But, despite all this, I still can't quite work outhow to send dirt via e-mail. Stuffing it into the CD-ROM slot hasn't worked. Although my computer now makes a comforting crackling noise every now and then.

*L* Dirt, huh? Well... hehehe... are we talking dirt that's indigineous to the area, or dirt from a bag?

Being one that owns a greenhouse, fields, and a floral shop, the dirt possibilities in my life are ENDLESS! Dirt or sand? With or without rocks? Fertilized or unfertilized? Clean or dirty? Packed or unpacked? *grin* Maybe I'm putting too much thought into this... what do you think? And what is she going to DO with this dirt, anyway? *L*

Nevermind..... I may not want to know... hehe.....

Clean dirt? Excuse my ignorance, but I thought dirt is dirty...hence the word dirty!

I can imagen a couple ways to make dirt dirtier. I sure wouldn't want that stuff for my science project.

Plain, unaltered dirt. Not potting soil. With rocks.

No 'dirtying' of the dirt required. *L*

Do you live in the Arctic or something? Why don't YOU have dirt?

Perhaps this is for multiple dirt samples from around the country...?

Would it matter if it was CANADIAN dirt? After all, it's dirt that we always want to chuck at you Americans for quite a while.......

Ohhhhh what if I sent you dirt from Australia! heh heh with lots and lots of nasties - I'm sure white ants, termits, wierd worms and parasites, not to mention I'm sure many larval forms of insects or amphibians!

LOL - I'm NOT going to do this of course - ECHELON - if you're listening...

I can't stand what has happen to Queensland - they brought Buffo marinas from Tahiti I think - to combat the cane beetle back in the 20s or 30s I think - well what happened to this Buffo marinas - or CANE TOAD - is that nothing can kill them (naturally) - if larger animals like dogs and feral cats eat them - the toads exude a nasty poisonous substance from glands at the back of their head...

so basically - they kill all the natural frogs and fauna and are spreading - rapidly - down the Queensland Coast - I think they are over the boarder into norther New South Wales - and west towards the Northern Territory - potentially threatening the Kakadu National Park...

And you all thought that the toad bit in "Bart vs Australia" was just an amusing joke, and not representative of a very real problem which could wipe out all life down under.
